In the latest exhibit of 'both parties are not the same'


?s=46&t=TEkGdOYblbsNDtM5BiaFTQ

‘A Republican lobbyist has been caught hiring a man to kidnap a client’s son over $500,000 in unpaid fees.

This lobbyist recently secured a client a Trump pardon.’

‘A Republican Governor commuted the sentence of Mark Milk, who was in prison for murder.

He has now been rearrested for sexually trafficking and drugging his 14-year-old niece.’

Our side pardons and commutes sentences of non-violent drug offenders.

Their side pardons insurrectionists, sexual abusers, even murderers - and surprise, surprise, they reoffend.

Both sides are not the same.
