Sands, previous ambassador to Denmark under President Donald Trump, responded to issues about the previous president’s endorsement of Dr. Mehmet Oz by attacking the ‘America First’ bona fides of her GOP principal opponents.
Oz “chose to provide Turkey initial, not The united states initial.

And pertaining to a different competitor with ties to Trump, hedge fund CEO Dave McCormick, she stated he had “transported work opportunities out of Pennsylvania offshore. And that is what is devastated Pennsylvania about the last 40 a long time. I would say he is closer to Beijing than he is to D.C.”
McCormick “selected to devote not in The united states but in China. And you never make a good deal of money in China without the need of the aid of the Communist Celebration since they regulate the overall economy in their region.”
In recent polls, the two Oz and McCormick presently direct Sands, a Camp Hill native.
Oz has said that if elected, he will renounce his Turkish citizenship. Oz said he has retained his dual citizenship so he can vacation to Turkey extra very easily to stop by his widowed mother, who has Alzheimer’s. His mother and father, who ended up immigrants, retired to their property nation.
“Dave has often fought to retain positions in Pennsylvania and never ever outsourced any jobs. At FreeMarkets, Dave was a component of generating over 600 jobs in Pittsburgh, contributing to the financial revitalization of the Steel Metropolis,” Jess Szymanski, a McCormick marketing campaign spokesperson mentioned in response. And Sands’ allegations with regards to China are not correct, she stated.
Sands also claimed those people two candidates would vote like “squish” Republican Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), whilst she would give “The usa 1st” votes.
Asked about Trump’s latest endorsement of Oz, Sands reported the previous president “has not usually been obtaining the ideal guidance,” and that she is the one who can beat Democrat frontrunner Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, who she said was a “robust candidate.”
“The Democrats like him, and they’ve come to be radical,” Sands stated.
Asked about increasing inflation, Sands pointed out it has hurt “doing work people and our seniors on set incomes are struggling throughout the commonwealth mainly because the radical Biden administration has been passing these massive, terrible costs. They’re multi-trillion-greenback payments stuffed with the Eco-friendly New Deal, socialist regulation, trying to regulate our farmers, our power sector, genuinely, every single one spot of our life. They want to set the thermostat in our residences. We have to say no. And I will stop the out-of-control paying out in Washington. Which is the selection just one driver inflation started off as quickly as (Biden) bought into place of work with his radical policies. But the next, the kerosene on the fire of the inflation is his war, the Biden administration, and the left’s war on our domestic energy.”
Sands touted Pennsylvania’s electricity means and the require to extract the state’s normal gasoline and get it to marketplace so that good-paying out careers will be available right here and to stem the inhabitants drain that cost the commonwealth a congressional seat just after the 2020 Census.
“I’ve named for an Procedure Warp Pace for American and Pennsylvania electricity that we harvest it,” explained Sands. “We do it cleaner than anyplace else in the world, right below in The united states. And then we lay the pipes. But we’re heading to need to have major cover from that…because we are likely have to unjam all the restrictions, the poor polices at the federal and point out level. But we can do this.”
Reminded that some Delaware Valley residents have vehemently opposed new pipelines she said, “Here is the attractive factor about federal energy. If we have an ‘America First’ president in the White Home, and we have an unexpected emergency for our vitality mainly because we don’t want to import Russian, Venezuelan, or Iranian energy, which is what the radical Biden administration is literally proposing. We need to have it domestic it can be cleaner here. And it also is financial stability, but national safety because Putin showed us, energy’s not just a commodity, it’s a weapon. And we need this for our protection and the protection of our allies.”
Sands also said Trump would have received the 2020 election if not for the interference of American “oligarchs” like Mark Zuckerberg.
“I refer you to Sen. Rand Paul,” she stated. The Republican senator from Kentucky claimed the 2020 election was stolen. “He reported, we did a forensic investigation. And if Mark Zuckerberg and his family’s dollars that went into that nonprofit and funded how the election was held did not go into the election, Donald Trump would be president nowadays. So the Zuck bucks stole the election.
“There had been other matters that went on. We know the place there is certainly smoke, there is fireplace. But Rand Paul, a sitting down senator, claimed the election was stolen by the Zuck bucks,” mentioned Sands.
Sands began her job in chiropractic medicine, like her father and grandfather. She married Fred Sands in 1999 and immediately after he died, she turned the to start with woman to serve as chair and CEO of Vintage Cash Team, her late husband’s company.
