FYI: "Antifa" just means "democrats." From 9 months ago:

I’ve long assumed Trump will declare we are under “invasion”, and democrats and immigrants will become the targets of unlawful emergency powers.

The GOP doesn’t hate pedophiles. You don’t protect the people you hate.

TIER ONE: Americans who Donald Trump pedophiled with: They get shielded from prosecution for the crimes they did commit.

TIER TWO: Americans who brought Donald to justice for the crimes he did commit, they get prosecuted as revenge even if they committed no crimes whatsoever.

During the shutdown….will Mike Johnson’s “adopted son,” be moving back in with them? During a crisis, kids often want to go back home to “mom” and “dad.” I jest. You know he hasn’t spoken to those freaks since he left.

Kristi Noem even complaining that ICE agents aren't being allowed on private property is inappropriate. We have a 3rd amendment for a reason. We do not owe government employees with gun a space in our homes or businesses when they aren't even paying customers!

The monster is really coming for us all. General Letitia James has been indicted following Trump’s pressure campaign. She’s accused of committing “mortgage fraud.” The MAGA movement is weaponizing the Justice Department.

Considering how much the press ignored the last protests, maybe we should plan for big crowds around TV stations and newspapers to make it hard for them to get to work. At least then they couldn't pretend they didn't notice.

I’m sure Roberts approves. He’s got no soul.

It’s hard to overstate how grotesque is the prosecution of Letitia James. I hope John Roberts—who unleashed this malignant, vengeful career criminal on our beloved country—is enjoying Trump’s utter abuse of power and trashing of justice and the rule of law.
