Huh. Apparently Katie Miller deleted this tweet that I had the foresight to screencap. Turns out I can TOO make things go viral on Xitter, even.
My RT of a Katie Miller tweet which RTed the NYPost coverage of the Ilhan Omar raid. 

She said: Promise made, promise kept.
I said: Katie Miller is not going to do very well in a deposition.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Good summary of the keystone cops attempt by far right scam artists to claim Talarico had a mental breakdown. But I wish there was more focus on the person behind this, a groyper street thug from Oregon who is a fan of the Freikorps and whose political ideology lines up 88% with Hitler’s.

In 1919, Germany's defeated soldiers came home only to be stabbed in the back by socialists and communists who wanted to burn the nation down and install a Soviet-style dictatorship.
The Freikorps rose from the disbanded Imperial ranks and smashed that red revolution before it could finish the job.
A century later the same poison is back—now joined by something even more alien.
Far-left radicals still despise their own people and culture, while Islamists answer only to Allah, reject every core of German and Western civilization, refuse to assimilate, and carry out violence in the open name of their religion.
Germany will not be saved by tolerance, dialogue, or more empty promises.
It needs a modern Freikorps-men who put the homeland first and are prepared to stop both the leftist traitors and the Islamist invaders at whatever cost.

Regardless of the legality of posting armed national guard members at drop boxes, whether the boxes were open yet, or whether drop boxes qualify as polling sites under the law; the optics are what matter. Lawful or not, it’s overt, intentional voter suppression.

I note how Christian Nationalists, who think the public execution of Jesus was the most horrific thing humans ever did, are giddy at the prospect of getting to watch a public execution on live streaming—being so “pro-life” and all . . .

Over 50% of their revenue comes from the United States — They live off American Buyers, American Companies, American Airports, and American Service — All while Canada blocks our GREAT American Banks, and Companies, throughout the U.S.A. They even blocked Gulfstream Aerospace from doing business in Canada — Completely unjust and unfair! That Era is OVER!

It was physically degrading. It was frightening. I don't think I've ever been frightened like that before. I was weeping like an old woman for an hour. I wouldn't wish it on anyone."
