Whoever voted for Clay Fuller to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene is complicit in the war crimes that are currently occurring and all of the harm that is coming to human beings that are captive in ICE detention centers. You are all terrible humans

An American F15 pilot is downed and lost. If he's captured, the horrors that await him are unspeakable. Hope he's rescued quickly. This is Trump's* war. He's the only one responsible for this. Soldiers, disobe orders if you feel for your safety or that you think you will harm innocent civilians.
