It is hard to picture a world in which Tim Schafer "accidentally" laid off specifically every person in his company who had led a Unionization effort or supported it. Very tough to imagine that being an accident, and kind of fatally sabotages Tim's "good guy" vibes.

The discourse on antisemitism in the country is such that Mike Rogers can simultaneously attack Abdul El-Sayed *as* antisemitic, as a scary foreign Muslim critic of Israel, and also *with* antisemitism, as a tool of the foreign-born Jewish puppeteer.
"LEAKED: Footage of Abdul El-Sayed fundraising last night in the California home of the far-left Soros family. 

Abdul’s education was paid for by the Soros family and NOW they are funding his campaign to make him a U.S. Senator 

The Soros family is funding Abdul because he will carry out their agenda of: 

➡️ defunding the police 
➡️ emptying prisons, and letting violent criminals & sex offenders back onto the streets 
➡️ gender transition surgeries for minors 
➡️ allowing illegals to vote in American elections 

Abdul is too extreme for Michigan."

Today ICE shot a man in the Bronx in front of his kid; yet DHS seems more concerned about peaceful, constitutionally protected advocacy to defend our communities than it does about masked government agents killing, assaulting, and cruelly detaining people—including American citizens.
