Holy shit. Republican Harriet Hagemen got torn apart at a town hall in Wyoming last night. In a state that voted for Trump by 46 points.
She tried defending DOGE and it went as well as you’d imagine.
“Deport Elon, Deport Elon!”
Watch to the end…

It’s a coup. It’s a strategic alliance with Putin. It’s the end of the post-war international order. It’s the triumph of lies over truth and in Putin’s case, evil over good. We are through the looking glass & we all now have to decide who we are & what we stand for

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party
thx in advance
thx in advance
Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

If you don’t want history to be re-written please share this video widely - because the only way to stop that happening is to constantly call this boll**** out with the actual facts
If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it
We cannot allow them to rewrite history.
