We don't need to unrig the system. It probably can't be done. We need to burn the system to the ground and create something new.

Did you know there’s nobody that can force them to leave the White House? They installed loyalists AFTER an insurrection. Nobody is going to remove them.. I mean, except for us. And it won’t be through voting. Not at all.

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.

I don't think this guy is ever gonna leave the White House no matter what and people need to be ready for how crazy ass crazy it's gonna get because apparently J6 wasn't enough to shock the voting population the first time around to not letting him just walk back in

Stop Calling It a “Decoy” Plane. Last Month the President of the United States Premeditatedly Used U.S. Citizens As Live Bait During a Terror Emergency.
When a threat’s hypothetical, decoys get used. It’s happened before—albeit with press knowledge. When a threat is known to exist, leaving civilians to face it uses them as bait. Tell the truth, media.

Some people may disagree with this, but this is my opinion. If you don't intend to treat a pet as a member of your family & household, don't get one. This includes letting them on the furniture and letting them sleep in bed with you. Yes. Things will get scratched up and covered in hair. Enjoy it.

BREAKING NEWS: The Truly Shocking—and Historically Humiliating—Details of Trump’s Surrender to Iran Have Just Been Revealed
It’s so much worse than we could have imagined. It’s a significantly worse defeat than Vietnam, and may stand as the worst military defeat in U.S. history. And the president can’t stop lying about it.

it will really be something if the Epstein Files unseat a British Prime Minster who isn't in them, and not the American President who was Epstein's best friend.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

As bad as she is, somehow Trump is far, far worse. But "vote for me, because my opponent is literally a pedophile kleptomaniac nazi and I'm not" while at least having the benefit of being truthful, is hardly compelling or inspiring.

I voted for her because the alternative was Trump, but I did not and do not like, support, trust or believe her. It has nothing to do with her sex and everything to do with her being a milqetoast limousine liberal genocide supporting status quo corporate dem machine bought and paid for stooge.
