I’m old enough and smart enough to realize when people speak ‘bullshit’, and this is utter bullshit 😑Bondi is trying to create a monster when it’s the US administration that is the actual monster in this bullshit video.

I am anti fascist, which means against fascism, it’s not an organization!

Payback will come.
