Had two coworkers spend their break Gen z style in the payphone wasteland of Puerto Rico (who gave me some great extra stuff) but I connect with them over a closely guarded one in San Juan Court that had business hours.

Like and comment on this video if you want us to release a full version of this song! This might just be our favorite song by The Rolling Stones. Wild Horses has such an emotional draw and in our experience, songs that can make you feel something are the ones that become timeless classics.

Real representation means actually showing up. That's why our first 100 days include at least four town halls, visits to every county, and leadership councils made up of real people from across NJ-7. Because good policy comes from listening to the people living the experience.

Keep your eyes on Joe... he has a quick fuse and gets to screaming and shouting... foot-stomping, profanity-talking in public, and finger snapping. Easy to see why, with his lying and alley cat ways he has issues.

Why would American tax payers paying $1.8 billion to convicted felons, traitors, pedophiles be a problem? 🤷‍♂️ It goes beyond "let them eat cake", it's literally Epstein class F*king Americans on the national scale. Please by all means Republicans keep going. F*ck around and see.
