Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
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 📉

At start of RFK Jr. hearing, Sen. Ron Wyden calls the anti-vaxxer a conspiracy theory-monger who embraces “quacks and charlatans” and who “chases money and influence wherever they lead, even if it means the death of children and other vulnerable people.”

With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger.
That’s why I’m posting it today.
