Show Notes

This week on FiredUp:

Sen. Kirsten Sinema (D-AZ) received over $1.5M dollars in campaign contributions from investment and hedge fund companies while she worked to strip tax increases on those super-high worth companies and individuals. Sounds like bought and paid for to me. What say you AZ Democrats?

While at a campaign rally this week, Beto O’Rourke dropped the MF bomb in a clapback to an Abbott supporter at the rally who laughed when O’Rourke described what an AR-15 does to a human child’s body. The video of the response has gone viral with some criticizing the choice of words O’Rourke used.

The big news of the week is the FBI serving a search warrant at the Mar-a-Lago residence of one Donald J Trump. The warrant cites criminal violations of three Federal Laws, most notably The Espionage Act. Reports are circulating that there were a dozen or more files marked Confidential, Secret and the highest classification Top Secret/SCI in the files seized. We look at the story and the warrant.

In response to the raid on Mar-a-Lago, Sem. Rand Paul (R-KY) is now calling for the repeal of the Espionage Act Law. We talk about this, although sources say it is unlikely to gain any traction.
