First they came for the rights of immigrants, and then they came for the rights of citizens.

WAKE UP.

Fascism is arriving in America.

Excellent article detailing it:

This lines up with the multiple MAGA influencers being caught pretending to be antifa.

It still baffles my mind that so many "libertarians" sold their souls for Trump.

They really did just hate brown people more than they loved liberty.

That's what Trump is doing.

I call MAGA fascists because that's what they are.
