We have a literal global terrorist regime in place here and the most obvious sign is that the Congress won’t impeach any of the traitorous war criminals in the executive branch. Another sign is that the judicial branch granted immunity to the lead insurrectionist and continue to rule in his favor.

From where I am standing, I know this is the movement I have been working toward. I feel the rafters shaking and the walls moving. I feel the aftershock of the work that went into Aftyn’s race and how it’s rippling out into red states across the country.

By the way it’s not exactly the point but there’s like 100,000 Somalis in the whole state of Minnesota. Not even a majority for a single congressional district. This idea that they are taking over the state or are the only reason Ilhan Omar gets elected is just inconsistent with reality
