I want these people that are on these forms to get out there and put that word out in that message out because it’s Julie important for our American democracy as we know it and it’s on not only for black out white is for the citizens of this country that wants a chance to live the American dream and enjoy the freedoms that we have so you better take a good look at project 25 and also this rhetoric about this Boules character. And his pic for Vice President that was totally against a former president all of a sudden he becomes a nominee for vice president and he totally backpedaled his whole stance on trumps character now what does that say about the people that he is putting in place in his administration and his Republican house and his Republican administration going forward people this man is a menace and he has a lot of power and a lot of followers please don’t forget that and he wants to overthrow this country and I believe he’ll sell us out

And remember the Republicans don’t want you to get long forgiveness Biden is fighting for you to get that bill pass for your sake so you can get a head so think about that when you’re talking about he’s too old and remember Trump is too narcissistic and believe in fascism and support our enemies foreign and domestic we have proof of that by his own words and gangtering.

It’s a shame but this is what our country was built on diversity and an inclusion and non-equity so if you believe in all these things stand with our current President Joe Biden for 24

She’s all that and some more but pass her words along and her message to anyone that will listen and it’s not like casting your pearls before swine but is straight up in an end balls all of us black and brown white and black middle class women men that are not Caucasian And he is Republican oriented and don’t believe in the American way which is inclusion diversity and equity those are the things that we are fighting for in this country and the freedoms to keep government out of our lives and not be regimented like Korea China and Russia this is what we have to contend with domestic enemies here in the United States. Vote people don’t be complacent because that’s exactly what the republican party wants you to be non involved and continued and that mindset of indoctrination don’t be deceived by the rhetoric that the Republicans are putting out because after all you’re only animals and varmints black and brown people and those poor whites the Republicans don’t even want to know you. In the middle class if you’re not making $400,000 a year the Republicans don’t want to know you either answer it behooves you to think about the things that these women are talking about

Can you do an episode on acronyms used by the Left? For months, I had no idea what terms like Antifa, DEI, WOKE, Deep State, and other terms created and/or demonized by the Left in their rhetoric meant. So many minorities do not stop to listen and look it up. I didn't know until I looked up and learned that horrible group they kept calling ANTIFA was ME! I was turned against the term because I had heard it so often, until I looked it up and discovered THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT ME! We really need to be schooled on the actual definitions of these terms they keep demonizing and we buy into them because we don't know they are talking about US!
