PRESS RELEASE: After Sending Corporation-Friendly Budget to be Vetoed, House Republicans Take a Month Paid Vacation; Democrats Object

I wont speak ill of the dead, but since Giuliani is still with us I can report that I met him in the early 2000s when I was a political reporter and asked him a few questions before his guest speaker gig at an AZGOP event. He had the weakest, most waxy and boneless handshake of anyone I've ever met.

State Budget Battle: This week, AZ House Democrats rejected this Corporations First, Arizona Last budget and had to remind Republicans the reality Arizonans are faced with in Trump’s economy.

State Budget Battle | Arizona House Democrats push back against this “data centers first, Arizona last” budget. Instead of cutting tax incentives for data centers, Arizona Republicans chose to cut funding for SNAP, AHCCCS, and Tucson developer Rio Nuevo.

Life is too short to read this shit. But I can confidently assert it’s prima facie evidence of Trump’s insanity.

Yes, good idea, Republicans! Don't believe those polls that show he's less popular than a genital wart. And please make sure every Republican on the ballot gets their picture with him and encourage them to put it on their campaign signs.

This aged like milk in the scorching desert sun.
