Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

If you’re not part of the resistance, you’re part of the problem. And stay out of the way of the people that actually care about this country and the human beings in it.

Torres: There’s a Turkish proverb that says, “If a clown goes into a palace, the clown does not become a king; the palace becomes a circus.” We’re witnessing the transformation of the American presidency into a circus, with Tulsi Gabbard as the potential DNI and Matt Gaetz as the potential AG.
