The eye roll in my avatar is for all the cultists who don't have a clue how right-wing politico-economic policies are actually hurting them.
The reason they build dams is to create deep water that gives them protection from predators.

He wants to stop ANTIFA, BLM protesters and ironically, "thugs with guns [who] trashed our capitol city."

Martin, as interim U.S. attorney, oversaw the dismissal of all pending criminal cases tied to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol following a directive from Trump.

Republicans campaigned on cruelty being the point.

No liberal woke government handouts.

Oh. Oops! Midwest farmers are dependent on govt handouts.

The leopard is not allowed to eat MY face. I'm entitled to all my handouts! We thought we were only punishing the libs. Not fair!

The strategy to push back against media personalities who are trying to defend Elon's Sieg Heil salute:

Ask them to repeat the exact same gesture on video. If it's nothing, that should be no problem, right?

They won't do it.

Here's Ben Shapiro being trolled by viewers with the ask/dare.

WTF. This X post has 4.5K likes. It says:

Do not commit the sin of empathy.

This snake is God's enemy and yours too. She hates God and His people. You need to properly hate in response.

She is not merely deceived but is a deceiver. Your eye shall not pity.

This pretty much sums up Fox News and Christian Nationalists.

If only there had been a document, meticulously outlining every single thing Trump would do in 2025 if he won.

Oh, and "screw everyone else in other govt branches facing freezes & layoffs - but veterans should be exempt because I'm a vet."

Too bad MAGA didn't see this coming.

Nobody could have predicted the guy who ordered a coup that involved killing cops would pardon the people who tried to kill the cops for him!

Who is going to tell the MAGA men that they are now all women?

I think one of the things he's campaigning on is taking away women's right to vote.

The nauseating misogynist and racist tenets for his campaign are here:

It's scary men would think women are attracted to these dog whistles advocating masked subjugation and abuse.

Here's his X announcement.

Keep in mind this guy is facing criminal allegations criminal allegations in Romania of rape, human trafficking and forming a criminal gang to exploit women.

Wow. One of the Elon Trump fridge magnets being marketed to Evangelicals.

I hate to break it to them, but the pair looks a bit like they're together in a way they wouldn't approve of.

These are the flirty event photos that started the rumors.

Their gushing praise for each other didn't help convince the tabloids their romance denials were legit.

Many accounts that have blocked me have blocked upwards of 20,000 members, all blue Dems, per Clearsky.

It's as if they're harvesting blue Dem accounts for future targeting of some kind.

I'm wondering if it's for Russian (or other) interference.

Should we be concerned?
