Trump caught in shameful lie: "they used no tear gas."

Trump camp released a statement on Biden's speech claiming he "repeated the erroneous claim that protestors in Lafayette Park were tear gassed last night to clear a path for Pres. Trump, when Park Police says they used no tear gas."


Our @GarrettHaake was there. Read his account.

Hey Neal. I was there. Tear gas was definitely used, and park police can’t 🤷🏼?♂️ that. And there was no object-throwing before the mounted park police moved in. Don’t want to tell you how to do your job, but using a background source to deny observable fact seems like a bad call.

This was from tear gas. A block from the church.

"Long exposure to Donald Trump shouldn’t dull us to how loathsome a character he is, and to how humiliating it is that he is our president." - Bill Kristol

His lies are getting people hurt and worse, this monster needs removed, and everyone covering up for him in prison.

MENTAL HEALTH.... of the citizens of the world is just one piece of this amazing CLUSTERFUCK we are living in/through?

I'd like to see Bible Billygoat yanked out of the W.H. by an angry AF group of SS agents.
