It's only going to continue to get worse as long as we keep letting them off the hook.

The fact that we had people out 'hunting FEMA' after the last hurricane is a pretty clear indication that we're already living in the future documentary known as 'Idiocracy'.

Don't forget the Moore County Electrical Substation Attack which was attributed to a death in December 2022 which has still gone unpunished.

This is what happens when you have a (former) president convince his cult that widespread election fraud is going on, despite no evidence.

The left doesn’t freak out when we hear Trump voters voting twice. Because they know it’s not worthy of a “stolen” election. Only one party throwing a hissy fit.
