anchor kari lake, who voted for barack obama and now parrots the big lie. let me tell you this. there is no good guys in corporate media. they don t exist. if there were good guys, they would be telling us about hydroxychloroquine and i ve mayor-electin. you called joe biden an illegitimate? he lost the election and shouldn t be in the white house. we had a corrupt election. don t tell me that joe biden won 81 million votes. don t insult my intelligence. i refuse to have it. okay. then there s secretary of state candidate mark finchum, currently a state legislator and tried to decertify the arizona election and failed and he s also a member of the oath keepers, right wing paramilitary group that you guys know and there s this little fun fact. he actually attended the capitol insurrection and a revealing new
ron johnson has a slew of ridiculous statements and he s a trump acolyte. barnes is very bright, very smart, a young candidate. he lieutenant governor with governor experience. this will be a very interesting race to watch. what are you hearing? thank you so much for having me, tiffany. mandela is a client. candidates like mandela barnes represent the diversity and the and the enthusiasm in the party and frankly is overperforming joe biden and generic democrats in wisconsin, a candidate with executive experience as lieutenant governor and with legislative experience. they are really demonstrating that millenials need diverse
