It is insane this is the GOP endorsed candidate. Every Republican in this state should be ashamed to be associated with him, starting with you @MorrisGOP
At least people are trying to get the word out on the real @tayfun_selen. Mailer that came in last week.
“I do not consider myself a conservative Republican.”

The typical denial from corporate journalists that they're totally free to say whatever they want and operate with no constraints - because they never get memos ordering them what to say - is such a naïve and even infantile way of understanding how corporate power works. Chomsky:
Of course Bezos, like most owners of major media corporations, doesn't pick up the phone or write emails telling journalists what to say. He doesn't need to. Everyone knows what the taboo ideas are and the pieties they must affirm. Large corporations only hire those who conform.
At the Intercept, Pierre Omidyar never interfered in the editorial process. He never told anyone what they couldn't say.

But he became a fanatical, vocal Russiagater and #NeverTrumper, so senior editors - desperate to keep their huge salaries - hired writers to echo his views.

THREAD: In "honor" of Texas' new draconian, cruel, repulsively fascist abortion ban & bounty law, this is the final time I'll be posting these since it's clear that the Republican Party has sunk to new levels of depravity and misogyny: 1/
Stephen Freind was a Republican state representative in Pennsylvania. He served there for 17 years. Image
Clayton Williams was sort of the "father" of Republican rape apologists. He actually said this during his 1990 Texas gubernatorial campaign against Ann Richards. Image

Look, I spent eight years mocking liberals for worshipping the president. Then, a lot of the people who loved me for it suddenly hated me because I wouldn't kneel before THEIR sacred cow.

Now I get to luxuriate in the cries of anguish from both sides. I'm not sorry. Cry more.
I'm not some lunatic #NeverTrumper who thinks he's Hitler and everything I believed in before he was elected is wrong. That's a good grift, but it's not for me. I recognize his accomplishments. His Supreme Court picks alone are praiseworthy. If he loses, that legacy will endure.
And if America decides to replace him with an even older guy who's obviously in mental decline, that's how it goes. Let him try to get anything done without the Senate or the courts. Let Kamala cackle and dance her way through the next four years. I've got plenty of spitballs.

1. Why are #NeverTrumper so frustrating? Turns out GOP politics mirrors Dems politics almost exactly. In the 1990s/2000s, Clinton and Bush reacted to the end of the Cold War with a fascinating experiment. They sought to break business and finance from control of the state.
2. They placed authority in the Fed, deregulated banks, enacted NAFTA/the WTO, and regulated banks via bailouts of Mexico and East Asia. Locking it in was the opening to China. A perfect libertarian machine, global utopia. No rules on capital flows, no party to complain to.
3. Here's James Carville: "I used to think that if there was reincarnation, I wanted to come back as the president or the pope or as a .400 baseball hitter. But now I would like to come back as the bond market. You can intimidate everybody."

That's it right there.

Among the many English words and phrases Trump is intentionally destroying to make the American public more supple in his tiny, deceitful hands is #NeverTrumper, which literally and *only* means a person who categorically and publicly opposed Trump's election

Vindman is not one
PS/ Indeed by definition a person who *only* developed opposition to Trump *after* his election—when America saw Trump's incompetence as president—is *not* a #NeverTrumper, as they didn't oppose him during the primaries

IAC, pretty sure we have *no* idea what Vindman's views are
PS2/ I know it seems like a small point, but media keeps doing this: letting Trump put words/phrases into the jetstream that are nonsensical or false or both but that he nevertheless is put on air saying repeatedly on a loop for weeks on end by the very media not questioning it

This #ThrowbackThurday let’s take a moment and remember some of the instances where both Cheneys came out against @RealDonaldTrump and his America First policies. #WarmongerCheneys #NeverTrumpCheneys
.@Liz_Cheney didn’t agree with @RealDonaldTrump on having allies pay for American protection. Why should the US taxpayer always be stuck with the bill? She blasted the president! #WarmongerCheneys #NeverTrumpCheneys bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
When @realdonaldtrump questioned NATO, once again @Liz_Cheney came out swinging, calling the president Wrong. #WarmongerCheneys #NeverTrumpCheneys trib.com/news/national/…

@SheridanLuanna @perlmutations @QuancyClayborne Ahhh, late arrivals crimes. How very concerning.

Like when Obama arrived late for the Mandela memorial service, and then acted the 7th grader getting selfies with other rulers?

@SheridanLuanna @perlmutations @QuancyClayborne And of course, he arrived late for the moment of silence following the Paris massacre:

@SheridanLuanna @perlmutations @QuancyClayborne And late for his last address on the behalf of the USA at the UN General Assembly:

27 Women Who Have Accused Donald Trump of Sexual Misconduct @alternet alternet.org/gender/27-wome…
If this isn't a big deal to you, you may be a miserable human being!
3: #RebrandTrumpRapistPEDOPHILEHumanTraffickerInvestigateImpeach
Not only does the media NOT TALK ABOUT TRUMP BEING AN ACCUSED RAPIST, THEY REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT HIM BEING AN ACCUSED PEDOPHILE.
I'm am ANGRY about this & don't know which is worse, public apathy or media apathy.

3. Former #CIA director, John Brennan has ALL of the intelligence regarding the Russian meddling in the 2016 Election. ALL OF IT, make no mistake!

1. This 👇 is actually more important than a quick twitter review presents.
2. The most important shift in political awareness comes when a person admits they have been a victim of "battered conservative syndrome".
3. Just because the cat had her kittens in the oven, well, that don't make 'em biscuits.
