Hey everyone...LOOK OVER HERE! It's Lt. Col. Bone Spurs declaring war on an American city!!! Does his rough tough cream-puff cosplay make you forget about the EPSTEIN survivors, their lifetime of trauma & their courage to speak the truth in public?

Yeah, me neither.

I feel the need to post this again.

It's a warm reminder of who WE are and that things do not have to be this way.

Peter Thiel, Musk, Stephen Miller, and Russell Vought realize their King is sick and dying.

This is why they're ramping up towards a dictatorship.

To ensure their groomed boy toy, JD Vance, has all the power to do their bidding.

This is all part of their plan. Resist peacefully. They are trigger happy and looking for an excuse.

Well, this has certainly escalated quickly. National Guard units patrolling the nation’s capital under Trump’s orders are now carrying firearms. The moment our military turns its weapons on American citizens will mark a point of no return.

Some National Guard units in Washington are now carrying firearms in escalation of Trump deployment

Some National Guard units patrolling the nation’s capital at the direction of President Donald Trump have started carrying firearms.

A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵

An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.

The American people deserve to know the truth: about who’s in these files, what they did, and how some of the world’s most powerful people could escape accountability for so long.

More importantly, the victims deserve real justice—a justice they’ve been denied for years.

Release the files.

As Heather Cox Richardson writes, The Epstein story is about more than the sex trafficking of girls. It's also about rich and privileged people evading accountability for breaking the law." People like Donald Trump, in other words.

In a healthy society the clowns are revered. Their job is to point out the absurdity of of our leaders by mocking them. Colbert was a master clown. The orange imposter couldn't handle it, his pathetic ego is too fragile and dispatched Colbert.
Raise a glass to clowns.

CBS will end 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' next year

Colbert confirmed the cancellation during a show taping on Thursday. CBS said the move was "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night."

What the hell is going on at McArthur Park in Los Angeles, CA! Looks like these militarized thugs are doing some kind of federal disappearing operation on street vendors in the park. This is only going to get worse with the new bloated ICE budget. #UnMaskICE

This is terrorizing the population of Los Angeles, a city that Donald Trump has decreed an enemy.

Masked thugs.

Heavily armed immigration agents descend on MacArthur Park in L.A.

Agents on horseback and in armored vehicles participated in a daytime raid in the heart of Los Angeles' immigrant community.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

As we move toward 2026 lots of grifters are going to come out of the woodwork to try to make money off of folks who disapprove of Susan Collins.

Really important not to give these folks oxygen by sharing links etc. E.g. we find no record of the below group at FEC.gov.

Watch out! #MEpolitics
