Trump wants to trust our most classified secrets to someone who echoes Russian propaganda, sympathized with Putin and Assad, and falls for conspiracy theories.

Long, after losing a Senate primary in 2022, has hawked a pandemic-era tax credit that has been riddled by fraud and cost the government billions more than expected.
Believe me, there is something seriously wrong with you if you get information from Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, Jim Jordan, James Comer, MTG and Faux News and then decide to vote for a pathological liar and convicted felon.
What does that say about you?
Yes, you are scum too.
Period.
On this day 69 years ago, in a historic move that changed the course of the labor movement, the American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations, the two largest labor federations, merged to form the AFL-CIO.
Happy Founding Day!
