“Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning”
~ Winston Churchill 1942

I love when Andy Ngo does one of his David Attenborough-style posts about Antifa and highlights some kid who took a bong rip and waddled into the protest dressed like a giant muppet.

My favorite flavor of his commentary by far.

Andy Ngo wants to draw your attention to Barney the dinosaur

I don't know whether Geo was more rattled or angry but he'd had enough or this bullshit

Yes, but is so not liked and whether he admits it or not, his brown wife is a liability among his political cohort

So I suspect, when his ambition gets out in front of him, he's going to treat her or more & more like an incubator

This is a highly educated woman, how long do u think that will last?
