Obama and CIA Director created “Russia hoax”, like Biden’s FBI put 270 FBI agents at the Capitol on Jan 6th, while Trump was president. You cannot change the FACT of Manafort’s connections to Russia’s GRU, and DOJ’s indictment of 19 Russians for their troll farm op’s during the 2016 election.

No not necessarily, unless enough people stand up and reject his power. He get his power from evil, he can be defeated with good, positive energy. Note, how he refers to his opponents as devil worshipers, that’s the tell. We need to get the people sitting on the fence, to help us defeat him.

The city cops should be arresting ICE agents when they become violent and use excessive force. Police Departments have rules, it is clear ICE does not.

The fact that a MAGA operative bought Dominion Voting Systems, is not getting much play among Democrats. The company’s name “Liberty Voting” says it all. MAGA will now control the voting in 27 states.
