What’s the story with this?…
“Let Russia Hate Flow from Alaska”
A dark force fuels Palin and Palpatine. They rule over a growing empire of greed and misinformation. Instead of the craggly emperor's cane, Palin hold's a vintage rifle for her beloved NRA. A mama grizzly is carved in the rifle handle. Her witchy brew is a super-sized soda emboldened with a Chic-Fil-A talisman and the self-justifying 'Big Help' credo of her supposedly well-intended gospel missions. The Emperor attempts to sell his case as a great unifier who will share power with all if they'd just join his side. Palin uses the grand precepts of 'Freedom' to make the same case. It can difficult to escape the mesmerizing wrath Palin and The Emperor bestow upon their minions.
