Rs, thanks to Elon, have found a way to rig elections. Their policies are largely unpopular yet they continue as though they won’t suffer any repercussions.

Why the heck are news media trying to spin these actions as a being politically savvy for the orange turd?! Infuriating

People should just not go. Let it be an empty lot full of tanks.

I hope millions come out nationwide to protest and dance in the streets. Make it one, gigantic, all-American, anti-fascist celebration! 🥳

The paradox of all this is that Mother Nature might succeed where nobody else has and scupper the whole thing. Rain is predicted all weekend for DC/MD/VA with a high probability of thunderstorms on Saturday.

The results from this AP poll are more favorable to the parade and show how much question wording matters. https://apnorc.org/projects/most-say-the-upcoming-military-parade-is-not-a-good-use-of-government-funds/

From what i heard, less than half the tanks that were just shipped to DC are going to be in the parade. So, why have hundreds shipped to DC?
