That neck-vag is from him having liposcution, but when he added new fat it can't settle in the areas where it was removed previously so it creates that slit.

The darkness of this era will require us to acknowledge that many institutions that may have served us well in another era have been failing for my entire lifetime.
The important thing is that we can rebuild something fully new and better while being a source of hope rather than paralysis.

Nothing is more indicative of the general idiocy and ignorance of Americans than having them think Republicans are more likely to halt corruption.
I mean seriously, you have to be an imbecile with your head in the sand who follows no legitimate news whatsoever to think that. Astoundingly stupid.

In the last poll before the 2016 election, Trump was losing to Dems on every issue other than anti-corruption — and he won the election.
In 2025, the latest poll shows Republicans leading Dems on who voters trust to halt corruption.
This is an emergency for Democrats ahead of the midterm election.

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.
The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.
