Wisconsin Republicans Spending Big Bucks To Keep Proving Trump Lost In 2020 - Ring of Fire



The Republican-backed audit of the 2020 election results in Wisconsin now has a price tag of over $1 million for Wisconsin taxpayers, all so that they can prove that Trump DEFINITELY lost the state in that election. The audit had all but concluded earlier this year, but Trump made one threat that has allowed this sham to continue with no evidence at all of voter fraud, and taxpayers aren't happy. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

How many subscribe to the Washington Post compared to those who watch Fox "News??" We also have the same problem in my area of New York.

It will take more of what happened in Kansas recently to marginalize them. Some may never recover. Some will. We need to keep providing the truth to them until it can no longer be denied. They are mentally ill and need to be treated as such.
