“The choice is not particularly nuanced. Stick with the Republicans who have chosen cruelty, chaos & corruption. Or vote in Democrats who recognize the crisis…can hold the criminals accountable & are motivated to pursue a more equitable & affordable future.” www.americaamerica.news/p/showing-tr...

Remember when Ted Cruz and other Republicans swooned over Russian military ads to mock Biden and our “woke” troops? An estimated 1.5 million Russian casualties later, Ukraine is still standing. Turns out cosplay tough isn’t real tough
