Just so we're clear: ANTIFA isn't a group with members or leaders. ANTIFA is simply the belief that fascism is bad.
Well of course a fascist President would consider anti-fascist advocates as “terrorists”. Tell me, has ANTIFA summarily executed people in boats without any due process? No? Hmm, maybe it’s the President who is the terrorist here.
Trump says he’ll designate antifa as a terrorist group but offers few details
President Donald Trump said early Thursday that he plans to designate antifa as a “major terrorist organization.”

Am I the only one who didn’t know Trump appointed Lawrence Taylor to his youth fitness council last month? Taylor is a registered sex offender who pleaded guilty after soliciting a 16-year-old trafficked minor. This is who’s shaping kids’ fitness & nutrition programs?

I am so fucking tired... I've been trying to detox for a long time now, but it's literally impossible. Every day is just a non-stop cavalcade of bullshit. For my family's sake, I need to somehow retain my sanity while staying informed.

“All new numbers,” boasted Donald Trump last week in the Oval Office, showing off brightly colored charts, the economic equivalent of the Sharpie-edited hurricane map from his first term. Now a new BLS head will lie every month

I haven't seen anyone break this down...
If an "11-year-old beautiful baby girl" will have to settle for "3 dolls instead of 30", doesn't that suggest the cost of those dolls will increase by 900%? 🤔
Also, what about the kids whose parents already couldn't afford a doll?

The Hitler youth were taught to be race-conscious, obedient, & self-sacrificing who would be willing to die for Führer. Devotion to Hitler was a key component of education.They celebrated his bday with a holiday & big parade. Sound familiar?WH threatens to withhold funding from schools if not loyal.

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?
There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

When the orange clown is removed, I DEMAND that WE, THE PEOPLE be given a fair and reasonable option to immediately remove ANY sitting politician and judge, including SCOTUS. It is time we take off the leash and put it on the ruling class. As it should be.

This Trump crisis, it doesn't get better, it will only get worse if left unchecked. Those who have the power to stop him need to step up loudly & publicly. We don't need just democrats or republicans, we need all to step up for the good of the nation and future of its people. #3E
