    Facism doesn’t start when they start rounding people up. Facism starts when they lay the legal ground work and normalize facist sentiment within society. Those things have been going on since before Trump, but hey, better late than never.

      The natural reaction when cornered is for the pedophile to go into “overdrive.”

      The bad news is that this is going to be very bad for a lot of people.

      The good news is that he’s escalating to avoid dealing with the fact that he’s already losing grip on power.

    About a decade late. People like myself were mocked for years for trying to warn people about this.

    Wish I could say I felt vindicated. Really, I’m just sad.

    This whole Epstein thing is going to be sweep under a rug, and something else will happen. It’s their whole plan… and been doing this since the start.

    Never forget.

        Look at a lot of these social media post… here’s a ridiculous from moron Mike Johnson. I bet he’s on the damn list. Look at other social media post where people are now saying, ”a pedo? Whatever! As long as they’re not 10.” Or “rape? Donald can rape me anytime.”

    This is what you voted for protest-non-voters.

    Trump was asked which Democratic figures the Justice Department should target specifically in light of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s recent call for Obama administration officials to be “prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law” over claims that they “manufactured” intelligence to allege Russia worked to get Trump elected in 2016.

    “It would be President Obama; he started it,” Trump replied. “The leader of the gang was President Obama. Barack Hussein Obama, have you heard of him? He’s guilty, it’s not a question. This was treason. This was every word you could think of. They tried to steal the election.”
