Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadnāt happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.

Trump wants voters to believe America is ungovernable, and that the only solution is an authoritarian like him taking over. The more chaos, lies, and misinformation he spreads, the more likely people are to tune out completely. Do not.
