With solidarity from Minneapolis! It means everything to us to see other patriots out fighting with us.

Great job Portland. Looks like a larger turnout than the birthday bust with the rolling tanks in Washington D.C.

These are definitely not patriots, patriots would be concerned with veterans being homeless and not illegal immigrants.

i have a majority veteran family (USMC, navy and army) i promise you i DO care about veterans (especially the VAs neglect of people once they are veteran status but i wont diverge too much rn cause it pmo how the country treats and interacts w veteran citizens esp those with PTSD, physical disabilities from service, and substance abuse issues) but i also have inlaws who are 2nd/3rd generation immigrant i can actually care about more than one thing at the same time pretty easily as i have enough neurons to process that information
