Stop acting like it didn’t happen then. Those cops were beaten, spit on, and more for protecting us n the members of congress (while republicans hid) as U.S. citizens. It was an insurrection n following incited by Donnie.

Trump is a Russian asset, knowingly or unknowingly. He has been in contact with the Soviet/Russian governments since the 80’s. This is widely known and no one seems to either care or believe it. All the evidence is comprised in these two books. Real evidence. Read for yourself.

My colleague from China told me that literally everyone in China knows for a fact that Trump is a Russian agent. She was like, “How can y’all not see it?” I was like, “We all know, too… we just don’t know how to stop him…”

Think New Mexico isn’t fighting for patients, they’re fighting for private equity. There’s a doctor shortage because Wall Street buys up community hospitals, guts staff, and turns ERs into cash cows. Patients wait 16 hours for care while profits soar. Private equity is strip-mining hospitals.
