Any bets?
Deja Vu all over again

Use psychology when IRS intimidation, manufactured crisis, blackmail and bribery doesn’t work.
That is SIECUS, Planned Parenthood, the CDC, major liberal think tanks and charitable foundations, like Rockefeller and Soros.
They all have a collective interest in codified wide-spread perversion.
