1/2: In 2020, Trump called Democrats "fascists" in '20 while surrounded by military officials. No one remembers it bc Dems didn't feel threatened by his false claim. Today, MAGA Republicans are angry at President Biden for a similar remark. Because they know it's true.

Michael every time you quote tweet or respond to me in any manner I'm going to donate $50 to Ukraine, and pledge that my followers do the same. Remember when you spent 2 days on here crying because I was published by Rolling Stone? Fun times, let's turn it into a fundraiser.

This gives us all a chance that we will still be able to achieve a solution to the climate crisis in the interests of all humanity, not only fittest. But in order for this to become a reality, it is necessary to force rich countries to help poor countries more. 7/

MAGA Republicans in Congress view the mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol on January 6 as patriots. On the anniversary of the violent insurrection, Congressman Matt Gaetz said “We’re proud of the work that we did on January 6 to make legitimate arguments about election integrity.”
