funny story.
I got banned from Twitter for "advocating violence", when I used a hashtag to point out Leon's hypocrisy: #elonbanyourself 🫤
appeal denied.
after a two month holiday, I came here. it's pretty nice, and I'm really enjoying finding accounts I knew and enjoyed back over on Twitter!

I wish my people would look around and see how much disdain the Republicans show the military and veterans. They lie to you. They hate you. Wake up, friends.

Trump's entire shtick has always been "I will make you rich." It's what his TV show was, what his books and "university" were, and it's what his presidency is. It's all about the hope that if you support him and do what he does, you'll become him.
It's all a con. It always was. It always will be.
