I read shit like this on a daily basis and the one thing that stands out, is they're all straight, white men. Weirdly, not one trans person or someone from the LGBTQ+ community...
Really not enjoying the relentless ubiquity of the world's worst people.
"A man pardoned by President Donald Trump for storming the Capitol was arrested on child molestation charges, according to Florida officials, who said he tried to use an anticipated Jan. 6 payout to silence the victim."

As a veteran, for me this is 100% true. I joined for college and now live a life of service
Hertling: "Our country endures not because of what we possess, but because of what we believe... The men and women who call themselves veterans remind me that a republic survives only when its citizens choose responsibility over indifference, sacrifice over convenience, community over isolation."

Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."

We have crossed the Rubicon
Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.
Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.
These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.
This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.
Every American should reject it.
