They said 40 babies were beheaded. It was a lie.

They said babies were put in ovens. It was a lie.

They said babies were torn from their mothers womb. It was a lie.

They said there was mass, systematic rape. It was a lie.

They lied. All to justify a genocide.

Let's not forget amongst the lies..

A report by a UN Commission published in June 2024 found that the Israel Security Forces used the Hannibal Directive in several instances on October 7.

Mussolini's last girlfriend, Clara Petacci would be 115 years old by now....except she was hanged alongside her beloved Benito in 1945 and displayed hanging upside down in Milan

Some would say a fitting end to a fascist dictator.

"One of the founders of antifa."

So, like, someone who fought in the Spanish Civil War?

You have to give them credit, these dumbfucks are really committed to their bit.

Screenshot of a social media post by @Acyn, with a video frame of a press conference with Donald Trump and Kristi Noem.

Text:

"Noem: One of the individuals we arrested recently was the girlfriend of
one of the founders of antifa and we’re hoping as we go after her and
prosecute her, we'll get more and more information about the network
and how we can root them out and eliminate them from the existence of
American society."

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop “left-wing” terrorism. He is staging it.

His troop deployments are a false flag — meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns.

This is now very obvious.

This would be very welcome, especially if it includes full ceasefire and flood of badly needed Gaza aid. But so much remains unclear, even about first phase, including point of Israeli withdrawal. Key will be measures agreed to assure that first phase doesn't become last phase.

Trump on Portland: "It's like the movies you see for the kids, I guess not only the kids, adults also, where you have these bombed out cities and these bombed out people. It's like, worse than that."

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Trump wants to invoke the Insurrection Act to punish anyone who opposes him, and he’s following a four point plan to do it.

Here’s what you need to know about it — and some thoughts on how to respond. www.youtube.com/shorts/31X8v...

The inner workings of the Trump administration hinges on Trump claiming things first on his ironically named "Truth Social"

..but from his rants about Portland, it seems his staff are feeding him a steady diet of AI fabrications..
