The day we can trust any politician will be heaven on earth 🌎.

Bias news .....Now do Democrats interfering in elections .No integrity .

Why he ran for office in the first place. Like Nancy and Joe and company. And then taking 10 years to enrich lawyers to figure out they did it like Wells Fargo CEO. Pleeaase!

Florida law makers who was the author of the DON'T SAY GAY Bill! Yeah, that guy has been INDICTED! That's why he resigned.

What? A Republican lawmaker? Why am I soooo surprised a Republican is being accused of fraud 🫤
