It’s Time For Republican AGs To Bring The Fight To Democrats’ Proxy Organizations

For years, Republicans have been subject to constant harassment by leftist-controlled government organizations and their proxies. Donors have had hit pieces run against them, frivolous investigations launched into their business practices, and even IRS audits.
