Make no mistake: the GOP is not a "conservative" party.
It is a party led by a fascist plotting an ongoing assault on our Republic.
Corporate Dems put Trump in office. We can't trust them to mount "resistance" b/c they support his policies. Thread. /1

Pelosi claims credit for an impeachment process that she:
š§ refused to initiate for nearly a year, costing lives and sacrificing families, and then
š¤« limited to excuse the President's self-enrichment at public expense, inviting future corruption. /2

This should surprise no one. Pelosi revealed her support for authoritarianism & militarism long ago, by doing so much to enable Bush's wars (if taken at her word) *despite* knowing they were based on lies. /3

My familyās path to America reflected that aspiration.
As Ahmadis enduring state violence, we fled Pakistan to gain religious freedom.
Then, we came to American to escape racial discrimination in the U.K.
I have lived the American dream.
Iāand Bernieāwant to preserve it. /3

Donāt forget the CIAās role in installing Bolsonaro.

We canāt stop climate catastrophe until we #CloseTheCIA. /3
