He articulated all of this during the campaign

His flying monkeys were saying in March that they would make blue state politicians pay (locking them up was the context) for standing up against Trump

They have been honest the whole time

It’s the NYT that has been papering over all his threats

It is an excuse for Federal troops to be deployed in Manhattan

It does if you light it

Don’t underestimate how much he wants to get rid of the protesters he personally has to see

Also

There is no downside for Lula on this move.

Trump is launching this war to protect Bolsonaro (Lula’s rival who was convicted of trying to overthrow the election).

The Brazilians who support Bolsonaro are the same people who will be hurt by this trade war.

It’s like the rest of it. It starts out as a pwn the libs until it’s not.

Trigger Warning! #Trump #Epstein

Sports should have two categories: “open” and “female”

This is a great wedge issue for conservatives to split liberals.

Reading these comments you would think he hates trans people. Instead, he said:

“I think it’s an issue of fairness. I completely agree with you on that. It is an issue of fairness, it’s deeply unfair… I revere sports. So, the issue of fairness is completely legit," he said.

On the topic girls playing sports against genetic males.

Can you imagine what people say if there was a problem and they didn’t check?

He is trying to distract from Epstein

Don’t fall for it

Remember when there was a natural disaster on the East Coast and when there were fires in California and Texans said it was God’s judgment?

I do.

If your proscriptions were adopted, at least 4 billion people would starve and/or die from disease.

Kennedy doesn’t care.

This is what happens when you vilify the safest weed killer ever discovered because “chemicals are bad”.

Except for maybe these folks plus the people we don’t know about in El Salvador
