We made it to the final night of the #RepublicanConvention. Follow this thread for updates on immigration commentary from the speakers. #RNC2020
.@senatemajldr started the night off by saying Biden wants to "give healthcare to illegal immigrants."
Once again, this is divisive rhetoric meant to distract the American people from the GOP's lack of real policy solutions. #RNC2020 #RepublicanConvention

RNC speakers love telling stories of immigrants who wouldn't be allowed to stay in our country today due to Trump gutting our asylum system and refugee program.

Yesterday’s prominent display of a naturalization ceremony at the White House during the #RepublicanConvention suggests to the American public that naturalization is very important to this administration.
Nothing could be further from the truth. bit.ly/3aZWWxW

"Yesterday’s naturalization ceremony during the Republican National Convention belies the reality of the Trump administration’s abysmal record on naturalization and immigration over the last three and half years." - @UrJaddou
"It also demonstrates their clear contempt for the rule of law, notwithstanding their words to the contrary, given clear questions of Hatch Act violations and the legal authority of the Acting Secretary." - @UrJaddou
Night 2 of the #RepublicanConvention and we're back to live-tweet and analyze any immigration commentary from the speakers. #RNC2020

Começa hoje 2ª noite da #RepublicanConvention. Comentários q ouvi de Republicanos tradicionais sobre ontem foram q os discursos dos 4 Trumpistas do Apocalipse (concluído c/ Trump Jr.) foram bem menos eficazes q os de "pessoas comuns" e de figuras + ligadas ao partido
Não passou desapercebido q após os 4 Trumpistas do Apocalipse (Charlie Kirk, Matt Gaetz, Kim Guilfoye e Trump Jr - os 2 últimos achando q estavam em 1 auditório lotado), a noite foi fechada c/ nomes + tradicionais como Nikki Haley e Tim Scot q reforçaram temas caros ao partido
Além disso, momentos considerados + eficazes não foram os depoimentos de políticos mas os de pessoas como o empresário de origem cubana e o jogador de futebol americano.
Vamos ver o q a 2ª noite nos reserva

#RepublicansForBiden thread by @Chrisvance123:
I worked to build the Republican Party in Washington state for 37 years. I was elected to the legislature and the King County Council as a Republican 4 times. I was elected Republican State Party Chairman 3 times. (1/6)

And in 2016 I was the Republican nominee for the US Senate. This year I’m voting for Joe Biden for President.
Donald Trump is not a conservative. His idiotic trade war has heaped new taxes on products Americans want to buy and caused other countries to place new taxes (2/6)

on American exports. He has driven up the debt. And he has undermined NATO and our other alliances, while cozying up to the dictators he admires,particularly Vladimir Putin, making America less safe.
Most importantly, Donald Trump is an authoritarian who has no respect for (3/6)

The Spirit of 50/50 loomed large over the #RepublicanConvention last night. This is a ghost I run into every single time I have a conversation about race or injustice with white folks who have not yet done the work to interrogate the way they see the world. #spiritof5050 1/
The Spirit of 50/50 haunts conversations w/ white folks and their allies; compelling them to ennoble whites doing evil by removing moral analysis and supposing all are, not only equally human, but all are equally virtuous and credible. #Spiritof5050 #RepublicanConvention 2/
Case in point: #VeryFinePeople on both sides in #Charlottesville. #Spiritof5050 #RepublicanConvention 3/
We will be live-tweeting the #RepublicanNationalConvention. Follow along for immigration updates. #RNCConvention2020 #RNC2020
We're 20 mins into the #RepublicanConvention & @realDonaldTrump has already referred to COVID-19 as the "China virus." This is the type of rhetoric that has led to a spike in hate crimes against Asian Americans in recent weeks. #RNC2020

.@kimguilfoyle's speech was filled with coded racism, pushing dangerous stereotypes of those who come to our border for refuge. This divisive strategy is all the GOP has to offer when the American people just want solutions. #RepublicanConvention #RNC2020
In a new analysis posted at Medium in advance of the #RepublicanConvention, our Executive Director
@FrankSharry predicts: “This convention is going to be a tribute to Trump and the GOP’s embrace of white identity politics. It’s gonna be ugly.”

"Trump & his family and staff members will make the remarkable & wildly exaggerated claim that... his partial border closings saved millions of lives. They will not, however, own up to the fact that Trump dismissed... then ignored the worst public health crisis in a century."
"Nor will they mention the essential immigrant workers who have stood side-by-side with Americans during this pandemic, putting food on the table, stocking our grocery shelves, working in meatpacking plants and in hospitals..."
