22. Never Said That

Wed Mar 4, 2026, 10:46 AM

What I am saying is that no one is addressing BW and the damage that the Republican Party has done to BW economically. The Dems are not coming up with policies. They continue to use BW as their attack dogs. Then spit them out. But still expect us to vote for them automatically.

I am just voicing my frustration and the frustration I am seeing with other BW.
