Private $60,000 bonus army that is anxious to shoot us that we must worry about. Those recruitment adds were plastered all over the football games time slots.
Their budget is already in the many billions and growing. But we can’t feed children or get health care for Americans that send tax cash that is used for ICE’is.
This army of J6ers are as ready to shoot us as an army of Rittenhouse's. Don’t doubt their loyalty. Any more than we should doubt the cabinet will do as told and beyond, to favor dear leader.
Ole Riit shot and killed protesters. Is a free man. Actually a MAGA hero. And he had no $60.000 bonus to do it.
