Yep. Trump just signed us up for ethnic cleansing. I’m sure it will go fine. Of course, it won’t be MAGA going to die. Just the suckers and losers that volunteered to serve their country.

With one hand Trump is taking away protections from former officials who have faced death threats, like Dr. Fauci; with the other he's signaling political violence is okay — pardoning Jan 6 rioters who bludgeoned police officers.
This is not a game. It is very dangerous.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)
