This is the propaganda they're spreading

We, especially Democratic leaders, MUST have a strong response to it:

This is a statement from "Women for America First":


"Unfortunately, for months the left and the mainstream media told the American people that violence was an acceptable political tool. They were wrong. It is not. We stand by and strongly support the men and women of the Capitol Hill police and law enforcement in general and our organization played absolutely no role in the unfortunate events that transpired,"

It's all BLMs fault.

... brewing on the same social media they all frequent. They never condemned it or warned participants.

she's been grifting for over a decade now. Even the right wing nut jobs can't stand her. She's really good at promoting herself as a really big deal to the cable news networks, to the public not so much.

She ran for office in Georgia, where she garnered a huge, 0.18 % or 351 votes. Her entire campaign staff quit, as they were never paid. She managed all by her lonesome to raise the massive amount of $2500.00.

8. This is why WE have to put as much resources as possible in messaging

They have done so much destruction because they wield the upper hand in messaging and essentially propagandized and brainwashed so many Americans successfully as a result. It led to the pushback against the ACA and more recently to the lack of accountability of the bungling of the coronavirus response by the Trump Administration. All it takes is strong smart responders with loads of training and knowledge in communications and psychology.
