BREAKING: Trump doesn't remember/believe/understand HE was president on January 6, 2021

This is how unstable, how mentally unbalanced, how much of a dangerous mixture of dishonesty and insanity Trump is:

"Biden's FBI?" By Jan. 6 2021, TRUMP had run the FBI for 1,448 days #25A

So if Russ Vought and Bob Kennedy were deliberately trying on behalf of an enemy to sicken and kill Americans by destroying the public health structure - what would they be doing differently?

I really hate doing this, but when I had my breakdown last month, I took two weeks off from work, and they didn't pay me for my time off, and I am broke.

If you find it in your heart to tip even the minimum amount then I would be enternally grateful

The fact that we’re waiting for the reaction of the President of the United States to a Nobel Peace Prize—an independent award from another country—is not normal.
It takes attention away from the winner, a woman risking her life every day, and centers it on the desires of a foreign president. #Pinks

Kara, why are so many people in the Paranormal Society queer?
Because witch trials and witch panics also focused a lot on homosexuality or people who were gender nonconforming, so magic and queerness go hand-in-hand.
And because I wanted to.

He does, but only data he can control for monetary gain. It's why he hates academics and platforms that don't earn him $, but he's manipulating buyouts like TikTok. It was never about China, because FB has been giving China data since at least 2010. Trump's family has 50+ patents on file in China.

Extremely troublesome when one best friend is obviously jealous of the friendship between yourself and another best friend, and appears to be trying to be messy about the fact you're getting out of the hellscape job area you currently all share. Like, welp, give me a reason not to stay in touch.

Do you really have any rights if they are openly saying they will just make up reasons to detain you?

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.
