It’ll be a long time —if ever —that I can look at a man dressed in a dark suit, a white shirt and a red tie, and not think of fascism
Trump on the Florida Panthers: "Good looking people. Young, beautiful people. I hate them. You hate standing here with all this power behind you. But I got power too. It's called the United States military. I don't care."

This was an eye opening post. Dave is normally a jovial dude. Their military background gives them a different perspective. But I think it is an honest and accurate analysis. 😢
This #CupOfJoe goes to Dave, of kris.and.dave (IG). He serving us some truth. ICE is a government sanctioned terrorist organization.

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.”

any human being -with common sense, who has been in the same room with a three or four year-old telling a lie—recognizes the body language & word choices of Glasheen‘s responses.
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Holy fuck! I am so proud to be an American. This is San Diego, California. All across the country, American Patriots are channeling Paul Revere and warning their fellow neighbors when the pedophile führer's ICE Nazis are approaching. 🙌💪👏✊️🇺🇸👇
