Our country was founded on resistance to a tyrant.
Attorney General Pam Bondi: "Our country was founded on law enforcement"
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

14% of MAGA now admit regretting their vote. 'ThePatrioticBlonde' was a loud fan. Now, she admits she was wrong.
Now? A grudging apology doesn't excuse her behavior. But ex-MAGA like this will be important.
Our best strategy is to allow them back. They influence others.
