Angie Nixon calls for Ashley Moody imprisonment
by Flint: Angie Nixon
Florida Senate candidate Angie Nixon is calling for her opponent Senator Ashley Moody to go to prison. She explicitly says she wants her Republican rival punished for actions taken while serving as Florida Attorney General, yet never names a single crime or offers evidence to back the call. While dismissing disinformation about abolishing prisons or defunding police, Nixon confirms she wants that outcome for what her opponent has done. The author points out that Senator Chris Murphy remains silent on this while describing Moody's record of successfully prosecuting criminals and performing well in the US Senate. This political race is framed as a contest to flip the seat in the midterms with Nixon stumping across the state from the panhandle to the Keys. She expects to be called senator on November 3rd if voters reject sending such nonsense to Washington. Republicans are urged to vote red because Florida isn't sending this bullsh*t to the US Senate.
