We have a dementia riddled man who can't recall recent history about himself, as our POTUS! Who is so desperate to rewrite Jan 6th that he can't remember it was his FBI that day. He pardons the Jan 6th rioters and now 9 months later calls them all Antifa! WTH?!

Great news! 24,000 donors have raised over $567,000 within 24 hrs of Letitia James’ indictment. Mamdani also summoned what is known as the sisterhood of Black elected officials in NYC to lend their support. I look forward to her victory. ❤️‍🔥 #Pinks #SheShed
