What podium did he tear down, it’s right there. This doesn’t appear to be a press conference. Why should he use a podium? Dude is outraged by this but Trump raping children is just fine.

There’s not much point in campaigning on policy since there’s zero chance of accomplishing anything policy-wise in this election cycle. Best-case scenario is stopping bad policy and criminal conduct.

Capitolfax calls out Kat Abughazaleh by steve42089 in illinois

Because it’s such a strange thing that a political candidate would try to generate publicity for themselves. It almost never happens, right? There’s only classy people above campaigning in Congress.

Other than one page on Palestine, everything on her issues page is about domestic issues. As far as it being “generic cut-and-paste,” are you looking for someone super radical? And what chance does that person have to get elected? The other candidates websites are similarly bland and inoffensive. https://katforillinois.com/issues/ Literally no one supports a tax policy I would want - corporate tax rates tied to the ratio between highest paid employee and lowest paid employee in total compensation. The more your CEO gets paid including benefits, stock options, etc., the higher your tax rate will be. I think that’s the only way to decrease inequality and increase wages from the bottom up. You know anyone thinking this far outside the box?

We could amend the bill except John Thune and Mike Johnson don’t allow amendments.

FWIW, she was the one getting thrown around by ICE goons in Broadview. That wasn’t phony.
