Well, this is quite a list. And now we wait to find out who did exactly what. And yes, Trump's name is there along with some you'll wish weren't and others you won't be surprised by.

I can tell you exactly which conspiracy theory / disinformation campaign the assholes who passed this nonsense have chosen to believe. It's an American narrative about "welfare recipients buying steak and lobster." So that's who is inspiring them: right-wing American conspiracy theories

He tried to pass off his strange six-day media absence as some kind of vacation. Combining that with the fact that pics posted of him supposedly playing golf in Virginia this weekend had PALM TREES in them (palm trees cannot survive Virginia winters) tells me he's very sick and they're hiding it.

Fox News settled with Dominion for $78 million and Newsmax recently agreed to pay $67 million for their lies about the 2020 election. In a real country both would have been banned from the airwaves. Ah, but that's the trick...

The reason you're not seeing 2A people protesting the National Guard in D.C. is the same reason you don't see cops patrolling KKK rallies.

When Trump's grotesque probably cancer-ridden carcass due to burnt steaks & ketchup finally gives out, I don't think they'll tell us right away. They're gonna Weekend at Bernie's him for as long as possible.

I think all this anti-drag stuff is instilled in kids when they're young. As in, some young boys got quite excited when they saw Bugs Bunny in drag and didn't understand why. 😁

Not all cops are pigs. But wayyyyy too many good cops turn a blind eye and let bad cops be pigs. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Has anyone remembered to make sure there are two humpback whales in the San Francisco bay when this thing swings by? Just in case. "Harvard scientist says interstellar object on course for Earth could be nuclear-powered" www.msn.com/en-us/news/t...
