I donβt remember seeing anything like this before
French Senator Claude Malhuret:
"Washington has become Neroβs court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."
I am really disgusted that Tractor Supply, with their anti-DEI pandering, is sponsoring the SEC women's basketball tournament.

Take inspiration from it.
