Lol!!! I love her statement in the last paragraph about him creating havoc! It's the truth. He's doing all he can to harm the state! Met her once and instantly recognized she was sharp as a tack and will go far. We need more straight forward, common sense politicians calling out the right for their lunacy.

She is very smart.

I think I will wear my Mendoza t-shirt tomorrow.

Ben and his guest did a deep dive into why Ruiner is trying to crash the bond rating and/or cause major institutions to file bankruptcy.
Ruiner is a monster, trying to enrich himself and the rest of the billionaire class.
Another layer of perversion is that Ruiner made major profits managing union pension funds.
