When these people say "protect women" and "protect children", they mean "protect my property".

Just replace “protect” with “have sex with”

Protect the bees!

Since when did treasonous republicans care about bees?

When their farms start failing and they scramble to hire trucks full of pollinators. They don’t vote accordingly or change their practices though. They just go bankrupt and get bailed out by welfare.
