A reminder that these criminals got pardons for beating police, and the national guard was not called.

?si=luD1rIy6GyoixA55

I know it’s a YouTube video of Jan 6 where cops are being beaten and it can be removed or replaced without any action on my part.

I know this is keyboard warrior stuff. Best I can think of is to try and get this in front of the eyes being propagandized to, since I’m not in LA.

I’m hoping one one of many many voices who refuse to let people forget who lets violent criminals out of prison. For his supports, everything. For his enemies, not even the law.

Apparently Trump is above the law and he gets to choose who else is.

Trump is a disgrace.

any 2024 Democratic campaign ads? I never saw it but assumed that was only because I don't live in a swing state. Yet It's just really hard to believe this was included in any Democratic campaign footage and yet the election turned out the way it did.

Hope that was shown all over the country and especially to police forces last year.

I'll never understand how anyone could watch any of that footage and not be outraged at the attack on our democracy.

swing states are not silos. What happens in neighboring states bleeds over to the swing states

It's also completely frustrating and discouraging that my voice is completely ignored in national elections
