This guy has spent years telling you they’re all bad, one is just as bad at the other leading up to 2024 election.
Now America is gleefully killing Americans on American soil or talking about stripping citizenship from even descendants of the American revolution for speaking out.
They’re not all the same and this guy is a front put out to spread misinformation.
I grew up with 90 rap and listening to your segue music is annoying enough to stop listening to you. Please this is too cheesy. Do less.
Dynamite independent perspective—unflinching and very much needed at this moment in our nation’s history.
