Mike Johnson: "If you're a young, pregnant American citizen women who shows up in an ER and you get treated and they pay the hospital less for treating you than some illegal rabble rouser who came in from some South American country to do us harm, that is wrong."

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

There is a LOT of noise to parse through right now. If you want to keep up with what antifascists are saying about the current political situation, follow and pin this feed:

None of the people sitting at the anti-antifa round table with Trump today would exist if it weren't for Twitter. None of these people would flourish without rage baiting the algorithms. And this is where we are now.

You’ve gotta be kidding me.

This WaPo editorial presents a misleading revisionist history of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s criminal cases against Trump.

Then it has the gall to compare that to Trump’s overt targeting of his perceived enemies.

Really embarrassing stuff.

But the mere fact that a legal tool might be available does not mean it should be used. The
current rage over Grassley's revelation shows why. Smith showed little restraint in his pursuit of a former president. He charged Trump for official acts he took as president. He sought a gag order to limit Trump's ability to criticize the prosecution. He tried to accelerate the case to try a leading presidential candidate before the 2024 election.

There is a real irony here, because the U.S. antifa movement is almost completely disconnected from international networks, probably more so than that in any other country.

Q: Are you going to work with your administration to designate antifa a foreign terror organization?

TRUMP: You mean anti-terror?

Q: Antifa

TRUMP: Antifa?

Q: A foreign terror organization

TRUMP: Would you like to see it done? I'd be glad to do it. Does everybody agree? It sounds good to me

Ibuprofen is our friend. If those who don’t suddenly started getting a period Ibuprofen would be free, available everywhere, and everyone would have a new schedule with one week off work every month.

If anyone’s image needs “sanitizing”, it sure as hell isn’t antifascists’. Ngo is making money from peddling absolute 100% bullshit propaganda. Clean up on aisle Andy! He’s a mess.

I love when Andy Ngo does one of his David Attenborough-style posts about Antifa and highlights some kid who took a bong rip and waddled into the protest dressed like a giant muppet.

My favorite flavor of his commentary by far.

Andy Ngo wants to draw your attention to Barney the dinosaur
