say the same thing for the George Floyd protests.

I would say to his Jan. 6th Insurrectionists who were let out of prison, did he pay them. What POS he is. Let him fall down on another bunch of stairs huh????

All that hate he has will bring him down. Also Homan, Vought, Miller and Bannon. The whole Project 2025 posse too.

Leave LA alone, in fact leave us alone Felon you have done enough damage.

show up to events, so he says everybody pays people. It's another way he blurs reality so that his dumb MAGAts don't know what to believe. If or when he gets called out, he just yells, "Fake News."

He provided no proof. Hasn’t in 60 years. I’ll state that he is a convicted felon, a rapist a thief of classified material and an insurrectionist of a riot. I’ll state that for free. And there is no question of my assertion. It’s real easy Donald.

this is now.

None of this is helping immigrants, no matter how much some call this LA fighting back. I suspect 99% of California immigrants are laying low, hoping this will end.

Conservatives will believe any lie, especially if it involves Soros.

This guy claims he has gotten rich from Soros.

And the Congressman 'believes' him.

In Minneapolis, the Boogaloo Bois turned up to agitate and set fires. Don’t foreclose the possibility that there are provocateurs on the ground in LA.
