The Sky Is Falling [View all]

I am going to keep doing this until people look the fuck up, the sky is falling.

Last might Trump fired 17 Inspector generals, the people who keep a watch out for waste, fraud and abuse.

I saw a headline this morning, "This appears to be in violation of federal law." So what? Trump violated federal law last night. Who is going to stop the King?

50 fucking Senators who fear retribution from the King voted for a drunken, wife abusing rapist to be the face of our Defense department.
When Hegseth gets that 3AM call, most likely he will still be in a bar getting a lap dance.

The Sky Is Falling Right Fucking Now and do not put it past the corrupt members of the Supreme Court to toss out birth right citizenship.

What is the plan from Democrats? Who is organizing them to respond, to take action against the illegal actions of our King?

Donate money to fighters, donate to the ACLU, Southern Poverty Law Center, AOC, Jasmine Crocket.

Democratic Party, stop sending me texts to donate more money. Show me what you are doing first?
