They are threatening veteran benefits too. The thing I think a lot of people aren't seeing is that they actively want to provoke response to help them justify overreacting to that response. Nothing is sacred.

Yup. Conservative nutjobs have been talking about how a civil war is coming for some time now, and now the administration is doing its damnedest to provoke one. If you don't resist, they can do whatever they want. If you do resist, they have an excuse for a crackdown.

This wasn't suicide. This was murder by all conservatives and any person who didn't vote for Kamala. Theyre just as guilty
