With the #RESTRICTAct, #Congress wants to continue #Trump's war on #Tiktok, banning the Chinese-owned service. How will they do this? Congress isn't clear. In practice, banning stuff on the internet is hard, especially without a national firewall:

1/Rand Paul was PA born, TX raised, and groomed to take a Kentuckians job. KY elected Paul to the US Senate in 2011. Before passing a single piece of legislation to benefit Kentuckians, Senator Paul used his position to run for President in 2016. #Paulsnot4KY #RandPaul #Kentucky
2/#Rand Paul pretends to live in Kentucky. The average home 🏡 size in KY is 1,750 sq. ft. He really lives in 6,000 sq. ft. Pittsburgh luxury villa with 6 Bedrooms, 5 baths and a pool. #Paulsnot4KY #Kentucky @winchestersun #fancyfarm
3/Rand Paul was never a Kentucky Wildcat, Cardinal, Hilltopper, or Colonel. Paul paid tuition to be a Duke Blue Devil with Christian Laettner. #Paulsnot4KY #RandPaul #BBN #GoCards @WKUSports #GoBigE #waddy
The avg reply to this comment is quite disappointing in terms of basic knowledge of our political landscape. We can of course disagree w each other but it would be nice if we knew what we were disagreeing with. You can disagree with @RandPaul's (& father's) championing of liberty
. Many in fact do and may say that such extreme personal freedom is too much and that societies need the government to drastically restrict & regulate this freedom. But to deny that Rand Paul supports this freedom is to not have any idea what his beliefs are (not surprising given
the state of our media). Because if he doesn't champion liberty, then certainly no one else in the US Senate does. And neither does nearly any politician in high office on earth.
I don't know if #Fauci is dissembling, or if he was unaware of the 2018 & 2019 grants to Peter Daszek of EcoHealth Alliance by the #NIH for gain of function research on coronaviruses, that Daszek subcontracted to Dr. Shi at the #WuhanLab. Daszek spoke about this in December 2019:
Link to the Nicholas Wade article posted at the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists on May 5, 2021 which revealed the #NIH grants to Ecohealth Alliance that were subcontracted by it's President Peter Daszek to Dr. Shi at the #WuhanLab: thebulletin.org/2021/05/the-or…
I'm no fan of #RandPaul. No doubt many of his questions are misleading or disingenuous. Nonetheless, it's clear Fauci misspoke when he claimed the #NIH never funded Gain in Function research on coronaviruses, since the evidence is in the public record. reporter.nih.gov/search/xQW6UJm…
#TrumpIsGuilty, the only reason why any senator would fail to convict is to conceal his own involvement! #Insurrection was an #ActOfWar! You told the #BigLie! You conspired in 45's #Insurrection! @SenRickScott @SenRickScott refused to watch the film #ManUp ktla.com/news/politics/…
@SenRickScott @marcorubio Are we a #SovereignNation or not? Are you sworn to uphold the Constitution or not? Will you betray #Florida & America again 4 #Trump? #Insurrection was an #ActOfWar. They defecated in our Capitol. Hope they didn't miss your ofc!

#MAGATerrorists took down #OldGlory & replaced it with #TrumpBanner, signifying dominance over America's #Capitol as their territory. That's what flags are for; just like #IwoJima! #Insurrection shall not stand or we are no longer a #SovereignNation & a self-governing democracy.
Is the postal service @USPS planning to alter anything else before the election, AZ Senator asks the Postmaster just now?
#DeJoy - "Senator, I promise you, we aren't making any changes before the election."
#GOP Senators however suggest that $billions must be cut so...

2/ ...the changes in @USPS are just the beginning. Sen. #RandPaul says service to rural areas should be reduced to maybe 2 days/week, and "remote" people -- such as Native Americans on tribal lands -- should pay postal surcharges to receive mail. Other #GOP say....

3/ ...entire concern about @USPS slow-downs is a "false narrative" conjured by Democrats to explain why their mailed fundraising pitches are bringing in lots of money for their candidates. Everything that has unfolded, they say, is simply about reform & cost-savings at USPS.

1/News reports are #PresidentTrump refuses to bring in war room & handles #impeachment matters himself. But I have identified WHO has been giving him (& #RandPaul) their strategic advice to attack #whistleblower. Follow evidentiary logic through this thread & you'll clearly see.
2/Watch typical #Trump tactic against #WBer. Ask a question. Suggest he doesn't know answer. Then encourage a negative answer.
3/#Trump's latest surrogate is Sen @RandPaul, who is threatening to reveal name of #whistleblower. Many GOP colleagues fortunately disagree with his view but will that stop him? What is Senator's latest strategy?

GUT CHECK:
The sitting U.S. president appears to be a Kremlin agent.
The Republican Party leadership is aiding and abetting him.
The right-wing media is covering for them.
Flag-waving Republican voters are perfectly fine with treason.
