Trump *still* claims he won the 2020 election

  john, Trump was in Minnesota on Friday night for a high-dollar fundraising event with the MN GOP Party. He doubled down on his belief that he won the 2020 election — claiming he won Minnesota in both 2016 AND 2020 (reader: he lost both times). He called Democrats “criminals and comm…

I’m Angela Alsobrooks, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Maryland and I’m ready to defeat Republican Larry Hogan. Can I count on your support?

  john, this is Angela Alsobrooks. It’s official: I just won the Maryland U.S. Senate Democratic primary and will be taking on Republican Larry Hogan in November. Make no mistake, Larry Hogan won’t be easy to beat. He was handpicked by Mitch McConnell, and his MAGA allies have alread…

Trump’s radical second term
