Sometimes, the greatest act of love is not in what you say or do, but in what you allow. To give someone the space to be themselves—to exist without judgment, to speak without fear, to grow without constraint—is a gift that few truly offer.

They’ll never convince me he won this election fair and square. He and his conspirator (ketamine addicted guy), had too much to lose: their freedom. Petulant Man-Child admitted it 3X on camera.
Not investigating this election will be our greatest regret as a nation.
