“They pretend they want to make llfe easier for their residents, yet they spend time attacking colleagues instead of Trump who ripped health care away from our families. Why? Because they are also war mongers & will fund genocide before taking on their corporate donors who are the ones really hurting our families.”

“People see how these members who take donations from corporations will throw down against those of us who want to fund free health care and not endless wars and genocide.”
