I’m sure there are tens of millions of idiots who believe what U.S. House Speaker Mark Johnson said at left.  Yet the majority of Americans understand that:

ICE is a lawless institution.

Trump consistently violates the Constitution by usurping the power that should reside in congress.

Our illegal war in Iran is endangering the entire planet, as is our war on clean energy.

Committing war crimes like the bombing of small boats off the coast of Venezuela helps to create a lawless world.

Ukraine is fighting …. for its life after having been invaded by a powerful war criminal.

Trump is fighting …. to stay out of prison after having attempted to overthrow the U.S. federal government and raping children.

Wow. Watch Out for that Logic!

  • 46. Mississippi
  • 47. Kentucky
  • 48. Louisiana
  • 49. Arkansas
  • 50. West Virginia

Do you see any correlation?
