Like most Americans, for whom Randy Fine is dripping with contempt, I have no college degree. I wear it not as a mark of shame but as a badge of honor. I grew up in poverty and overcame depression and substance abuse to rise to the US Congress. You call that failure. Others…

Statement from @BattlegroundNY on Mike Lawler’s dreams being crushed : (

You are going to get absoutly smoked by Hochul
When I first called @KathyHochul the Worst Governor in America, it stuck because it’s true. Under Kathy Hochul’s failed Far Left Democrat rule, a radical Communist Defund-the-Police Antisemite may be elected Mayor of New York City, a CBP officer was just brutally shot in the…
