"That is why I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it." Yes, there is a difference.

This weekend I found out that lots of 30 something year olds didn’t vote in the 2024 election. Why? Because they don’t trust either party. My advice? Just read both parties platform. Now, your protest of not voting has us on the edge of tyranny. Grow up! NOW! #Voices4Victory #Pinks #DemVoice1
