And they may actually end up teaching Americans some modern African history. They found the group of white people who benefited most recently from blatant, violent, government sanctioned racial persecution and are suggesting they’re the victims… Every accusation is a confession.

... wouldn't the DOD use their super secret decoder rings, rather than a civilian platform to communicate, whether encrypted or not? or did this think tank presume that anything shared on signal would be off of the record?

1. The astronauts were not “rescued.” They were never “stranded.”

2. USAID never spent $50million on condoms for Gaza.

3. Haitian migrants were never eating peoples’ cats & dogs.

4. Trump did not win the 2020 election.

Trump’s greatest legacy is the destruction of truth.
