Internet censorship and VPN thoughts: it is quite likely internet censorship will be here soon. A VPN will disguise your address from the web - you can appear to be from other countries. We will all need reliable vpn’s before that happens. Look around… get reviews…

I thought Queen Elizabeth II was dead? She was certainly an antifa member - prolly a founder too.

When the President of the United States essentially declares war on the state of Illinois and threatens to jail the Governor of the state and the mayor of Chicago- he is not a president but a tyrant.

I have a friend who owns a restaurant. He says tourism and travel to DC in recent months has devastated many restaurants in DC. So, yes, Trump is lying. Again.

Trump: "You can go and eat at the restaurants. The restaurants are booming. They were closing one after another and now they're booming, they're opening. Nobody has ever seen a transformation like they have in Washington DC. It's as hot as it can get."

🚨There goes the last of Governor Pritzker’s fucks. 🪦
He took that threat of being arrested to heart… and the people of Chicago are marching in the streets because the Chicago mayor and their governor have their backs. ✊🏼

It is men that commit 93% of violent crimes, 95% of murders, 97% of s3xual assaults, 90% of armed robberies, and 98% of mass shootings.

It’s all men. Live a life separate from your natural predator.

Today on Volts: hey listen up! The most important election of the year is happening in Georgia next month. Two seats on the (currently all-GOP) Public Service Commission are up & rising electricity prices are on everyone's mind. This is a bellwether for next year's governor & midterm elections!

Pay attention to the most important political race of 2025

With energy affordability set to dominate national politics, Peter Hubbard and Brionté McCorkle explain why a down-ballot Georgia race is ground zero for the fight.

To avoid seeing taco and his clingons I read Fox website. It’s revealing - it’s interesting to see how many obvious bots are there repeating today’s propaganda. They push the narrative or reverse the narrative all the time.

You think Voldemort has that capacity? I felt like someone in his earpiece must have been screaming at him, in horror. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I think he does. He’s the other “brains” behind taco, besides vaught. He has this supreme power as a goal I believe, but he was momentarily confused by who his audience was. Either way - it’s out now.

I think he realized he’d said waaay too much. Telling everyone that taco has supreme power was not his intention today at least.

The links to the original youtube video of this no longer work. CNN helped them cover this up. I am glad there are probably lots of duplicates out there.

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.”
