We have to crush these Christo Fascisti Coup Birds. They have not stopped their un-American shit after Trump's defeat
and their 1/6/21 Fascisti "Black Shirts" attack on the US Capitol and the Constitution if anything they have increased
their attacks just to see just how much shit they can get away with, they have unlimited money, and much of the media
too.
We have to crush them at the ballot box and in early voting this fall.
Cannon has been a member of the Federalist Society since 2005.

(4,913 posts)I don't care how much education she has. How many so called smart people support Trump? A lot of smart lawyers are going to prison because they are stupid.

(70,447 posts)... by being stupid. It would be better if she was stupid and what she did could be blown off as
being dumb but this tells me she is evil, knows just what she is doing, and Trump appointed her
after he lost the election to a court that had Merde a Logo in its district.

(1,896 posts)Why does Florida skew hard right? Why does the GOP like dictators? Why do republican politicians act like mobsters? Why does the money and influence of the 1960s Cuban refugees and their offspring fuel the Republican Party? Its not all coincidence.
