branding Dems as insurrectionists. This is dangerous language because of the laws that give him extra police/military powers in the event of an insurrection that he declares.

Any proof to the contrary will have them shaking their head saying “you just don’t understand “you’re being lied to you ‘re looking at the wrong news.“

Or still?

Antifa and BLM started that conflagration four years ago. Have they been stoking it or did they set the city ablaze again?

And what about Minneapolis? Has it been rebuilt since antifa and BLM burned it to the gtound in 2020?

This is all true! I've seen dozens of right-wing memes about it! They even had photos of the blazes!
