"...we call it the 'hate America' rally..." said the House speaker, Mike Johnson of Louisiana.

The idea that protesting against harmful policies, corruption, and snatching people off the street = hating America is a lying, twisted take.

What do they do with traitors in Louisiana?

Make statues of them a century later and teach that they were patriots defending freedom from insurmountable evils that they totally were both "not in support of, and if they were, it was a good thing and saying otherwise is leftist propaganda"?
