AMERICA FOR AMY addresses false claim about her husband John Bessler.

America for Amy
@America_for_Amy

This is false.@AmyKlobuchar’s husband, John Bessler is not a member of the Federalist Society.

He is a law professor and he has authored several books about the death penalty (he opposes it).


America for Amy
@America_for_Amy

The reason he is listed as a “contributor” is written on the Federalist Society website and
@chrislongview
and anyone else is free to read it.

“A person's appearance on this list does not imply any other endorsement or relationship between the person and the Federalist Society.”

It’s amazing more people haven’t put it together that this is just the other side trying to sow discord in our party. I’m pushing for Pete but I’m not going to tear down another candidate to do it. Well.....when it comes to Bloomberg, I’m biting my tongue.

Or some little helpers somewhere else on the planet?

No, not talking about Santa's elves. And probably not little. In fact, some may be 400 lb pimply youth in their mothers' basements having a sadistic giggle.

As if Senator Klobuchar would actually be married to one of those freakin' Federalist idiots. That's pretty funny.

Just your standard smear and disinformation stuff.
Not even a good one.

Expect much more in the near future. Some of it will be laughable, some will be easily dismissed, and some may stick. Be on your guard, there is a war on, of the disinformation and cyber variety!

Kind of sad how sometimes people don't take down an OP that contains obvious false charges even after they have been exposed.

Your OP clears things up

primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
