“Socialist, Communist Hank Johnson”

  Hi John, Do you remember Johsie Cruz, the candidate who ran against Hank in 2020 and refused to concede the election? She’s not done attacking him.   Not only did she attend Trump's mega-rally in Georgia, she also gave a speech about Hank at the “Demand an Audit Rally”. She s…

Using donor money for rent and utilities

John, When people give their hard-earned money to political campaigns, they do so in the belief that it will be used to fight for what they believe in on the campaign trail. But GOP Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert’s campaign used donor money to pay utility and rent bills, a flagrant v…

Our next Secretary of State

  Hi John, Free and fair elections are essential to a healthy democracy, but they’re under attack by Republicans looking to tip the scales. Georgia Republicans passed one of the most restrictive voting bills in the country — because they didn’t like the results of the election.  …

In their own words

  John, Trump came to Georgia not too long ago, and held a mega-rally to spread his Big Lies. We’ve become accustomed to him calling his loss in the 2020 election rigged, itself a dangerous sign for democracy. But what was even more concerning was the fact that he now has followe…
