I know a thing or two about family values

To me, family values mean, first and foremost, recognizing that families come in all shapes and sizes.   John, Extreme Republicans love to talk about "family values," but their actions tell a different story. They’re fighting to defund programs like Head Start that provide…

they’re running scared

There’s a reason why Trump and JD Vance are spending so much time in our state–Michigan will be decisive in the outcome of the election. And with recent polls showing Kamala Harris with a narrow lead against Trump in our state, they’re pulling out all the stops to flip MI-03.   …
