It’s just gonna be Vance in a Trump mask telling everyone he’s fine and feeling great and about to sign an EO for all new couches in the White House.
Soooo, we’re really doing this again?

Hours after trying to assassinate the EU Commission president, Russia tried to assassinate Germany’s military's inspector general, Carsten Breue, the highest-ranking general in the Bundeswehr. His plane was also jammed once over the Baltic Sea and once over Lithuania.

The maga crew rely only on themselves and expect this of everyone. This rugged individuality is stymied by one thing alone… the most basic bread recipe known to civilization.

People are often surprised to learn that Lee was an officer who never made it past colonel. The purported promotion to general was awarded by a treasonous cabal calling itself the "confederate states of america" which was put down by force by the Union army, which also had superior generals.

Portugal’s President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa: Trump is "objectively, a Soviet or Russian asset. He functions as an asset." In March, British Conservative Party MP Graham Stuart raised that Trump had been groomed by the Kremlin’s security services over a period of decades.

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?
