Trump “misplaced” $17 TRILLION. That’s not Monopoly money that’s corruption on steroids. Ally Sammarco @allysammarco.bsky.social and I break it down on our latest episode.

It is your American duty to mention the president’s age every time you talk about him.

It’s clear he’s deteriorating quickly and he doesn’t have the mental ability to lead for the next 3 years.

from @allysammarco.bsky.social

As MI church shooting stuns the nation and violence is increasing, the last thing the President of the US should be doing is placing blame where it doesn’t exist. The shooter was an Iraq War veteran, pictured wearing a shirt that says “Make Liberals Cry Again.”

Common Sense takeaway: Charging your political enemies when you’re in power is not justice, it’s weaponizing the legal system. In a healthy justice system, you’re supposed to choose the crime, not the defendant then the crime. @allysammarco.bsky.social

Republicans will try to equate the Comey indictment w/ what Trump went through the past 5 years.

The difference is Biden wasn’t putting his thumb on the scale. He wasn’t directing prosecutors to go after people. He wasn’t sending love letters to Merrick Garland on social media about what he wants.

The crazy thing about an escalator stopping is that Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.

I can’t stop thinking about this. My opponent Rep. David Scott voted for the resolution to honor Charlie Kirk’s legacy. I would NEVER have done that. Add that to one of the many reasons I’m challenging a 22 year incumbent to represent GA-13.

RT if you agree.

How Democrats fight for families: Affordable childcare, expanded paid leave, well-funded public schools, gun safety, access to birth control and IVF.

How Republicans fight for families: Pressure you to have 1000 children.

The only true pro-family party is the Democratic party.
