Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls

Can someone timestamp the exact point in this amazing infographic video where you think "we" (as in the U.S. / the West) are currently at? 🤔
More importantly, why is humanity so stupid as to repeat the same destructive cycle over, and over, and over, expecting a different outcome?! 👇

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Let’s not both-sides this one. Trump refused to concede, never admitted he lost, Senators & Reps refused to certify, state AGs filed lawsuits, they stormed the Capitol, filed 60 lawsuits & had fake electors.
