we have seen presidents, including the current president, abuse their power for personal and political ends,

I got suspicious here, like the phrase is an afterthought, and the word should be especially.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Yeah, he got me with that as well. No idea of what that means. But I know it’s another pejorative aimed at those who cherish liberty and freedom.
