A quarter-million folks rallying on the Mall yesterday to support Israel? Peaceful, orderly, strong.
Two hundred anti-Israel protestors outside DNC tonight? Chaos, weakness, Capitol buildings locked down.
Says a lot!
BREAKING
Absolute mayhem outside the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington DC.
Ceasefire advocates who were protesting and blocking the doors of the DNC building are being pulled off, thrown down, and arrested by law enforcement.

’s latest attack ad uses debate footage where I say, “We need to make sure that our pre-existing conditions are covered” to accuse me of wanting to eliminate protections for pre-existing conditions.
Can’t make this stuff up, folks.
In the wake of COVID-19, it is crucial that we elect officials who will prioritize affordable healthcare. Peter Meijer says he wants to repeal the ACA, which guarantees protections for millions of people with pre-existing conditions.

Not even remotely true. My motto: return “strong, stable, and effective leadership” like Gerald Ford, Paul Henry, & Vern Ehlers but hoped to build working relationship w/Trump. Was only primary candidate willing to say where I disagreed w/Trump + emphasized “not a rubber stamp.”
Lot of anger toward

No. I firmly oppose any attempt to eliminate cash, which would erase privacy in personal transactions and allow even greater monetary manipulation by the fed. You’d think we’d have learned our mistakes from years and years of QE…
