GROUP OF FAR-LEFT LAWMAKERS WHO THINK TRUMP HAS AGAIN COMMITTED IMPEACHABLE OFFENSESDuring his first four years Ossoff attempted to establish a reputation as a senator working to advance Georgia's traditional interests including its farmers and military bases He says he will attempt to work with Republicans to deliver for Georgia The senator who has lately intensified his criticisms of Trump warned Saturday that businesses and households in Georgia are struggling to plan for the future because of constant changes in the federal government's bargain and economic moves Businesses are unable to invest with an understanding of what the rules of international business will be from one hour or week or month to the next Ossoff communicated The Associated Press Households are unable to plan their annual budgets because there s so much chaos and uncertainty in the implementation of federal economic strategy This administration requirements to clearly define its economic objectives and it requirements to competently implement its plan whatever that plan may be he continued The fact that the White House does not even know what its strategy is and is with such unpredictability and chaos lurching from one program to the other is putting the state s commercial sector at serious economic danger STACEY ABRAMS CONSIDERS RD RUN FOR GEORGIA GOVERNOR DESPITE BACK-TO-BACK DEFEATSOssoff also

un-American And it s something that should chill us to the bone no matter our politics no matter our agenda preferences The lawmaker urged Republicans to remember that eventually a Democrat will be president again and the shoe will be on the other foot This is about checks and balances he stated This is about whether or not the executive branch is constrained as designed by our Constitution by judicious legislators who can put their partisanship aside to protect the population interest Ossoff explained that while Democrats have limited power without control of the White House or either chamber of Congress a big part of his job at the moment is to inform the people of Georgia that Trump's policies are not in the state's best interest In addition to his criticism of Trump Ossoff has cited shortcomings during the Biden administration particularly when it comes to edge measure He was one of Democrats who voted for the Laken Riley Act named after a Georgia nursing scholar murdered by Venezuelan migrant Jose Antonio Ibarra The law requires illegal displaced persons accused even without a conviction of theft or violent crimes to be detained by the Department of Homeland Guard My view is that the American people expect and deserve secure borders Ossoff explained And I think the Biden administration failed in its dividing line policies The American people expect and deserve for people who enter this country illegally and may pose a threat to society safety or national guard to be apprehended by the executives CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP But the American people don t encouragement and don t expect federal police raids on elementary schools and hospitals and churches he continued referring to the Trump administration's controversial immigration enforcement actions
