Christopher Moynihan — a Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump — was arrested for allegedly texting, “I cannot allow this terrorist to live… I will kill him,” about House Leader Hakeem Jeffries. A chilling, unmistakable sign of escalating violence from the right.

So that's why Darth Vader is trending.

They're not even trying to pretend to be the good guys anymore.
Trump: "We have Darth Vader. You know Darth Vader, right? Darth Vader is a man who is sitting -- is that Darth? Stand up please. Does everybody know -- they call him Darth Vader, I call him a fine man. But he's cutting Democrat priorities and they're never gonna get them back."

I’ve been waiting for them to start talking about trying to stop the planned 10/18 protests.

Americans - if you are inclined to and able to, get out to a protest on 10/18. Peacefully exercise your Constitutional rights, to speak, to assemble, to seek redress of grievances, to live as free people.
