Juanita Frauddrick a sick #pathetic joke #Juanita is envious of Nancy, makes her infamy on smearing a great president like #BillClinton @CommunityMedia3 @medfordmedia #mapoli and is someone desperately in need of @JennyCraigAusNZ #JennyCraig #JuanitaBroadDRICK Expired 15 min fame

You’re not out of the woods yet, on your J6 scam, either. https://twitter.com/speakerpelosi/status/1637153439367962625
