Honestly, talk about miss piggy...she's the personification of a human pig, frankly.

What a bullshitter she is.
What a bullshitter she is.
Reporter: What did the president mean when he called the reporter piggy?
Leavitt: I think the president being frank and open and honest to your faces rather than hiding behind your backs is a lot more respectful than what you saw in the last administration

Watch this.
Open your eyes to this brutality.
ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.
Now share this.
Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.
You have power.
Even sharing this video exerts that power.

because he and his hedge fund buddies already bought up everything they could get their hands on and are still doing it. This lying little phony drag queen. what a mess. Nothing about him is authentic!
you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."
