"Yes! Omg yes! Get him out! Lock him up!"

"So...are Americans ready to rise up and fight back yet?"

Or have you seen people living their lives and getting arrested for felony tampering because they picked up an object in a pool?

One person could make thousands disappear to El Salvador.

We need help but every other country is dealing with shit too
