If it was one of those states where it’s legal to drive through protests, what would the logistics of bringing a dump truck to one of these Proud Boys rallies look like?

You shouldn’t bring dump trucks to Proud Boys protests but…what if you came up with, say, 12 yards of manure and deposited it in front of them?

Looks like the Nazis were the worse for wear when it was all over.

So the anti-drag crowd doesn't like drag queens reading stories to kids? Someones got to do it.

If the anti-drag crowd cares so much for the kids, why aren't they reading to them?

If much of America reads at a 6th grade level, one might take a guess and say they barely can read at all.

I’m guessing Br’r Rabbit stories, excerpts of Twain specifically chosen to use the n-word, and Bible stories starring white Jesus. They definitely wouldn’t consult a librarian about what books to read.
