Last week it reached 10 million.

To day it is Eleven Million.

@StillIRise1963 Kevin McCarthy is to fucking imposter criminals in Congress what jelly is to peanut butter.

@GottaLaff Wayne LaPierre can go fuck himself.

FOX doesn't have much to say about #HarlanCrow & #ClarenceThomas. I'm sure they would also be #superchill if the story involved, say, #GeorgeSoros & #KatanjiBrownJackson, right?

That fucking imposter and criminal, George Santos, is still walking the halls of the Capitol because of traitor Kevin McCarthy.

A backpack almost ready to go!

Plan is to activate OHFF-0101 "Korkattivuori" (Mt. Korkatti) by foot.

My radio gear is IC-705, 80m EFHW antenna, telescopic fishing pole and Powerfilm LightSaver Max as a power source.

I'm also carrying tarp, ground sheet, half of sleeping pad, cooking set including gas stove and small pile of dry firewood.

I also have some bushcraft gear like knife, folding saw and cordage. And small first aid kit just in case.
