Friday Politics Roundup for July 15, 2022 | Back from haitus; community organizing; GOP v. Dem organizing strategies; report those UFO; and, so much more

Raging Chicken's Friday Politics Roundup for June 24, 2022. So much to catch up on! It’s great to be back after a two-week hiatus for family vacation. Today we had a great community initiated discussion about organizing for the midterms, the differences in how the GOP and the Dems run their parties and campaigns, the critical importance of the PA gubernatorial race, how the right-wing is coming for our public libraries, and so much more.
