Masks or no masks this is a frightening video. A bunch of men somberly marching towards us - the would-be authoritarian in front of a phalanx of military personnel - is not an image of strength or security; it’s an image of unchecked power. Dark theatre nitter.vloup.ch/MayorWatermelon/…

Important to note that when the president goes to see wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Hospital, a bunch of generals aren’t usually walking behind him. These men were told to do it - used and exploited to create an image - just like the general in the photo at Lafayette church.

Are there no high-ranking women in the us military?
We forget what it means to live in an authoritarian nation. People disappear, are jailed, tortured & murdered for dissent & free speech! America is capable, we did it in Gitmo, nothing justifies it. 45 is a vindictive nut, like all dictators. We can’t allow it to grow. Be aware

Somebody set it to Darth Vader music. It fits perfectly.

The mere fact that this story is deemed even newsworthy is documented evidence that this country is in really deep 💩
Cry more Lib. This is the end of Sleepy Joe’s basement run.
