Berserker by Christian Garduno

I’m thinking there weren’t any actual “riots” at the Capitol Building yesterday. Seems kind of fishy, like an OBAMA set-up. I’m calling BS on LameStream Media!! None of it even happened. More FAKE NEWS from the Communist News Network. Nice try- LOLZ!!! It was just a few good ol’ boys having a calm discussion over states’ rights. Y’all blow everything so out of proportion, I swear.

Plus, you guys take everything out of context. If Jed wants to relax after a long afternoon of insurrection, why shouldn’t he plop down in Piglosi’s fancy chair and kick his tired feet up on her desk for a moment- his hard-earned unemployment check pays for that chair, that desk, that Office, and in fact, that entire building is his, if you stop to think about it. I’m not disagreeing with you, I’m just saying– Jed was well within his rights, according to the 2A. If there’s anyone to “blame”, it’s the lugenpresse. They’re the ones contaminating everything.

They keep saying that some lady died but I’ve been hearing from a lot of people that she was already dead when she got to D.C. Some kind of crisis actress, paid off by SOROS. Typical.

It’s not like a Wal-mart was destroyed, it was the Capitol Building, public property. If Geoff deems it necessary to take with him an official speaking podium, well, dadgum it, that’s up to Geoff!! He’s been paying taxes his entire life, he’s paid for that podium 1 million times over. You do the math!! Y’alls make it seem like the fate of the entire Free World depends on one measly little wooden podium. Come on now, you guys really need to get off it!!!

I’ll tell you what, though, they worked overtime on their Photoshops, that’s for sure. The way they deleted all the ANTIFA rioters (over 1 million +) and filled it in with supporters of the Righteous President. They even added all the flags in. Unreal. And just for the record, it ain’t against no law to walk down the hallowed halls of the Capitol Building with the ol’ Stars and Bars. If it was ‘illegal’, then why didn’t the COPS stop them? Exactly my point.

My favorite attraction was on the westside of the Capitol- the little staging area with a noose hanging down. My kind of version of the guillotine ready for any traitor 24/7. Come and get some!!! My cousin even took a selfie with Don Jr over by the noose.

Ghouliani called for a “trial by combat” and that’s what he got. Hoo-rah!! Even Trump tweeted- “This is what you get”. We’re coming for Big Tech next!! We know where you live, Zuck!!

In a way, I’m glad we got storming the Capitol Building out of our system, now we can go back to storming state capitol buildings and plotting to kidnap Governors. Nice talk.

Goodnight, Taj Mahal by Andre Peltier

Listening to Words by Mona Mehas

Listening to words out of touch cross lily pads, one to the next my rules, a tiny picture frame debt of honor, repay the gift. Headlights illuminate the path listening
