Hey it’s only fair. The Republicans are mostly law-abiding so the Democrats have go the opposite way to make up for that and things just kind of even out.

The FEC’s six-member panel should be found guilty of stealing oxygen.

AOC is, always has been, and always will be, unfit for office. The FEC is a corrupticrat org.
