In a lot of ways, Michael Jackson is the future of the Republican Party.

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

Twitter account: Uncensored @HmanQuotes1945: Official border patrol Facebook page is posting with the banned lyrics of Michael Jackson's song.
"Jew me sue me... Kick me k*ke me."

Anyone who loves Hitler DOES NOT belong in this country. They are fucking trash and should be prosecuted for treason. The young Republicans should be classified a hate group.

JD Vance was famously in right-wing youth group chats pretty recently. Wonder what was in those?

Mic drop. Jasmine’s Daddy never said he wanted to date her. Never talked about her body. Never cheated on her mama with a porn star. Has never been a court adjudicated rapist or a 34 count felon. So...

Let this sink on folks, protection from the federal government.

L.A. County declared a state of emergency to help protect its residents from an attack by [checks notes] the federal government. Let that sink in. I guess when Kristi Noem said DHS was going to “liberate” L.A., she meant “terrorize.”

This should be considered everywhere. They are kidnapping, abusing, harassing and threatening people who have rights. Every single one of them have rights and they are ignored. What they’re doing is unconstitutional and illegal.
Payback will come.

Elections aren’t every 4 years or every 2 years, they’re every year. In California we have a special election for prop 50 and it’s a YES. If Texas can gerrymander then we should be able to. I know my comments will be filled with bots, but I won’t be intimidated. Our democracy is vanishing❤️
