Feb 2024

All these years i have been wondering whether moderate interests allowed the Bush and Supremes theft with the pretense of fairness in the interest of US foreign policy - i.e. American hegemony dominated by MIC. Gore should never have conceded. The Supremes stole it for Bush and overruled states rights.

More needs to be done to expose the white heritage foundation for what it is - the new KKK.
