They actively sabotage America to satisfy their hatred for others.
And thatโs on purpose.

Get rid of this destructive, selfish, egomaniac.
Sadly, we no longer live in a functioning democracy.

Letโs be clear here. Christianity only became the religion it is today through fear.
You were either a Christian or a heretic.
The latter would have you killed.
It still works on this premise. Itโs more about hate and control.
This is what Christianity has always been.
Itโs never been loving
If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

These arenโt acts of benevolence or patriotism.
This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.
Every American should reject it.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
This need to be reported to the ICC and Hague. Let them figure out what to do with Trumpโs lawlessness.

- some did not vote.

FYI :โDestruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code ยง 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.โ

The Republican Partyโs strategy is the same as ransomware: lock it up, demand concessions, blame the victim.

Standing up to a wannabe dictator is patriotic.
