🚨 Somethings not adding up.
The White House and Treasury just got hit with overnight barricades; the kind they only roll out when theyre bracing for backlash. No protests, no parades, no reason given. Just steel, silence, and speculation.
Whats coming?

Could be that he is going with replacing Powell who still has time on his term and they expect protests.

they "just take orders"--- we all know who's to blame

JFK was who he was.

Netanyahu visit?
Protests tomorrow and on the Fourth of July?
The Senate Nazis passing their MAGA MURDER BILL in the middle of the night? (Crockett said they're on call over the weekend, too).
Something something Middle East?

Anyway, Id venture to guess that someone is acutely aware of how unpopular the BIG BOOTIFUL BILL really is

(2,754 posts)You see, in about a week there is going to be an uptick in the number of shootings related to massive gatherings of people with reports of explosive devices being detonated across the nation. Trump and the media will spin this 4th of July celebration as the result of No Kings protesters trying to wrest power and martial law will be established. The fencing will become permanent, and the White House will be safely within the Presidential Compound.
