When do you plan to stop this BS—if ever?” Someone said that to me. I had no argument. They were right. Let’s stop pretending. This isn’t happening to us—it’s happening with our permission. Yeah...that stings. The truth is like that. 2123645886

If a sheriff orders you to paint your house green, you'd laugh — not buy brushes. The president does not have supreme authority.
