The literal whitewash of everything continues unchallenged. This is pathetic and wrong on every level. Putting racist morons in charge was a terrible idea.

This is the game plan, folks. Clear as day.
“Illegal immigrant” was their first success.

Now comes
“Illegal boycott”
“Illegal protest”
“Illegal votes”
“Illegal posts”

Until the “illegal” is you. #3E

Donold is now classifying protests at Tesla dealerships as ‘domestic terrorism.’

Protest at a Tesla dealership and you get arrested as a terrorist.

But attack the Capitol and you get a pardon.

Jeremy Lewin is making >$167,000.

Kyle Schutt is making $195,200.

Nate Cavanaugh is making >$120,500.

Our stock market is crashing.

Our economy is contracting.

Our government is dismantling.

Our allies are fleeing.

Our grocery prices are rising.

But at least we now call it "The Gulf of America."

So it all evens out.
