They have installed the wealthiest man in the world to dismantle the country for himself and his fellow oligarchs. They plan to burn the country down to pay rock-bottom prices for the ashes.

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.”

She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line.

By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year.
