All week the right wing has been pounding the same message. Blue cities are chaotic, broken, and ungovernable. Today we saw the real reason why. They want legal authority to replace elected leaders with state control.

Zuckerberg needs to be shut down. He’s a walking danger to the American public, particularly children.
Imagine knowing your platform was a playground for predators, fueling teen depression, eating disorders, and suicide and deciding the best course of action was… absolutely nothing. Meta didn’t just “miss” anything.
