episode Make America Florida artwork

Anthony Sabatini joins the program from the campaign trail to talk about Constitutional Carry in Florida, fighting the RINOS, and running for office. State Rep. Anthony Sabatini is running for Congress in Florida.    You can find him on Twiter: https://twitter.com/AnthonySabatini [https://twitter.com/AnthonySabatini] About the Guest: State Representative Anthony Sabatini is committed to earning his spot as your Conservative Fighter in Florida.

He is consistently recognized for his legislative record by the Club for Growth (95%) and is the only elected official in Florida with a 100% rating from the American Conservative Union (ACU) in 2020.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
