All I want is more political leaders with #integrity. #Congressman #JeffJackson of #NorthCarolina seems like one and so does #senator #JohnFetterman of #Pennsylvania.

I’m also eager to learn about a republican leader with integrity but I imagine I won’t see that until a #newgeneration starts to emerge in the political arena. I have hope but I’m also tired and want to focus on what makes me happy.
