It's funny that these wildfires are so common in the areas of Western Civilization. I wonder why?

For 'ducks' sake, why are you so defensive for that piece of land that's so often being devastated with all sorts of natural disasters? Just abandon it and let natives do their thing. Whites could not adjust to it for so 'long'.

BLM and Antifa are behind some of these fires

We pray for peace

Another gender reveal? When are people gonna learn?

What are they doing?How Mach did Obama Collect in this transaction?Why?

Friendly reminder that SpeakerPelosi disparaged the Green New Deal. GreenNewDeal replacepelosi ShahidForChange

If they just raked the forest floor as per realDonaldTrump this wouldn’t happen. Instead, they waste all their time making shemale/gay porn

For God's sake, why can't Democrats ever learn to properly manage forests and water reserves? They have ruined California while enriching themselves.

2020 is intent on devastating us down to its very last second!

How do DemocRats run this state?Poor people,what a pity,move home!
