42. Did anyone see what NBC did with the story? Horrifying.

When I clicked the news headline to go to the story yesterday, it was preceded by a video clip depicting wildly burning teslas on a different day.

The implication was that whoever set fire to the vehicles was connected to the April 5 protests. In other words, NBC is trying to paint us all as arsonists.

And I wouldn't be surprised to learn that some of the car arson was done by MAGAs. Typical Nazi tactic to try and frame the opposition.
