Always enjoy the scripted naivete the media employs instead of just acknowledging what everyone else knows, this regime lies. It lies as a matter of procedure. It lies out of disrespect for itself. It lies, cause it can.

Not to be a conspiracist, yet it would be in the regime's interest to have a covid outbreak disrupt the 2026 elections, hence why they want to ban mail-in ballots.

Absolutely perfect description. If only this had been his obituary.

Piece in an unknown publication written by Oliver Kornetzke on August 18th, 2025 that reads behold. The festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman the coward of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of Klansman the sexism of a back alley creep, the ignorance of a bar-stool drunk,and the greed of a hedge-fund ghoul. All spray-pained orange and paraded like a prize hog at the county fair. Not a president. Not even a man. Just the diseased distillation of everything this country swears it isn’t but has always been— arrogance dressed up as exceptionalism, stupidity passed off as common sense, cruelty sold as toughness, greed exalted as ambition and corruption worshiped like gospel. It is America’s shadow made flesh a rotting pumpkin idol proving that when a nation knees before money, power and spite it doesn’t just lose its soul. It shits out this bloated, obscenity and calls it a leader

"Faith in action" means that one's belief or trust in God, a spiritual truth, or a cause is demonstrated through outward behaviors, deeds, and actions, not just by words or thoughts. If he was more than just a performative Christian, he'd know this.
