Now this is a patriot.

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social

WATCH: “That’s not America. That’s not Tennessee. I’m ashamed of those sons of bitches.” A decorated veteran from a family of soldiers warns Republican anti-immigrant Stephen Miller bills are creating a “Gestapo”. (Bonus: turns out this patriot is a Holler fan 🎉)

I read 1984. And Fahrenheit 451. And A Brave New World. And The Handmaid‘s Tale. And The Giver. And The Road. And The Lottery. And The Parable of the Sower. And The Hunger Games. I know what I’m seeing.
