People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

Feels like forever. He was murdered in 2020, Biden took office in 2021. Shit was wild...

He was murdered in 2020

In Minnesota, under Governor Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey. When protesters over the killing began to march through the streets, Walz and Frey responded by releasing the National Guard to crack heads and jail people by the hundred.

Dude, we get it, you aren't going to vote for either. But you don't need to pretend the GOP isn't criticizing Walz for not being violent enough towards protestors.

But you don’t need to pretend the GOP isn’t criticizing Walz for not being violent enough towards protestors.

My problem is with liberals who keep insisting the Dems have a sound electoral strategy when they ratchet the violence up.
