An ex-con official has bought #Dominion. The 2nd largest producer of voting machines for our country. You may remember Dominion from winning a defamation lawsuit for the #ConMisinformation in 2020. Their plan is to just buy everything. From our elections, to our food production systems, to utilities

Brian "I say horrible things" Kilmeade basically told the families of 9/11 victims to get over it! Who cares if your loved ones died or if the Crown Prince chopped up a journalist while he was still alive there's money to be made in the Middle East.

Fun Fact: Mifepristone, approved by the FDA 25 yrs ago is still more heavily regulated than 99% of the drugs on market, more than opioids.

"Abortion-on-demand culture" is the label they use to justify taking away this choice from millions of women.

It is a disgrace that Fox continues to put them on constantly day after day to spew their propaganda to their friends when Hegseth & Wilson are afraid to face real press and are obviously in the process of covering a lot up that they don’t want the American people to know.

“No Kings means no paychecks?” Scott, that’s not how government works; that’s how feudalism works. You’re literally arguing for the system we escaped in 1776.
No kings means exactly what America stands for— we don’t serve monarchs or dictators. The people are the power, not one man or family.
