lol 'firebrands' I didn't know making an ass of yourself was being a firebrand, thanks Axios

They lost that fight when Pelosi acted the way she did. She set a precedent, now dems have to live with it

Why is Axios employing a liar like Barak Ravid ?

Pretty amusing and ironic that the party of Pressley, AOC, Omar and Tlaib is talking about firebrands.
