  1. Urgent Alert !! Supreme Court and DOJ are compromised!

    since January 6 2021 not one single Republican lawmaker has been held accountable for their insurrection actions. they will win re-election if not arrested and they will cause more chaos. Put an end to the Trumpist Republicans

    The world has greater peril from those who tolerate evil, like the DOJ, than from Trump and his fellow insurrectionist! DOJ Garland is ending democracy by not prosecuting Trumpist.

    Civil Contempt For Trump, But Trump Has Not Been Indicted
    1. the DOJ really wants to let Trump go
    2. DOJ Garland is afraid of what might happen to himself
    3. DOJ Garland is afraid to do his job and wants others to Pursue Trump in Civil Court

    DOJ Garland
    promised to hold Trump insurrectionists accountable, but he has not done so for the insurrection leaders and he is not cooperating with all other justice departments.
    Garlands plan is to wait out the clock so he can say, oh we just couldn't get to it in time.
    .

  2. Earplugs won't protect you from Artillery fire. The VA covers anything that happens when you're in service, so it's peculiar to see people suing a PPE product the government designed & gave them.

    They should have all filed disability claims when they left service and if they haven't, they should ASAP.

  3. I used to talk to my uncle who had been a gunner in the Canadian Artillary WWII Italy. I had to sit really close and speak really loud or he couldn't tell what I was saying.

  4. Would be nice if our government just gave free healthcare including dental, eye, hearing to all our veterans.

  5. Was there really a coronovirus? Watch the video you will be shocked EVERY-DAYS.ML

    Let's take a moment to appreciate how much effort he puts into content for us ♥
