These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.

Hours after Charlie Kirk was shot, there is an instantaneous order from 🍊💩 for US flags half staff but when a National Guardsman who was illegally ordered to DC dies from being shot, there is no such order? Abysmal but yet not shocking. Ask your military friends and family how they feel about this.
