Get foreign influence out of our politics.
It won't fix everything, but it's a start. We need leaders who are willing to fight to fix the broken system that’s shutting down Alaska.

WELKER: Do you think democratic socialists have a place in the Democratic Party?
VAN HOLLEN: Yes they do as part of the debate. I think that those in the Dem Party who are afraid of a healthy debate are missing the point, because Democratic voters do not want a return to the pre-Trump status quo

NEW: Regarding the claims that Rep. Max Miller withheld his toddler's "blue bunny," I have some new screenshots suggesting there was a pattern of Miller not giving the bunny back. There were pleas from multiple people on multiple dates. (Thread: 1/8)
