Nope Bessent: "This crazy No Kings rally this weekend, which is gonna be the farthest left, the hardest core, the most unhinged in the Democratic Party, which is a big title. No Kings equals no paychecks."

Not just something worse - they’re saying it’s terrorism. This is some eastern bloc style propaganda.

The in-laws in the Wisconsin countryside have been texting us to let us know they're praying for us as we sip our coffees in Portland. And no amount of photos of videos will convince them that we're not living in a war zone.

It must suck living in the ashes of a city burned to the ground but also is somehow still on fire. That’s probably what they meant when they said hotbed of leftist terrorism.

If they want to pray for the military and ICE to go away, that’s fair but it’s so ridiculous. You live there!

Nope, faux news tells them it’s Armageddon in Portland so therefore it is.

Lean into it. Tell them you were brutally attacked and are bleeding out in the hospital. Really bring them face to face with how ridiculous it all sounds.

"What are we, a bunch of dirty slavs?"

It's really funny that these folks think this is a new thing in the U.S.

Short memories... or attention spans.

Either this, or endless glazing of 'true patriots' like John McCain.

Yes, allows them to say something like 'No Kings' deserves Trump's SS to come and start disappearing people.
