2 years ago today, Trump sent a.mob of violent armed insurrectionist to the Capitol to stop the certification of Joe Biden’s election. 12 of the 20 #MAGAextremists who are #NeverKevinMcCarthy stood with the twice impeached seditionist & lied about the 2020 election. #January6th
These shameless Republicans said that the election had been stolen or rigged — or that Donald Trump was the rightful winner — even though Joe Biden earned seven million more votes and 74 more electors thanTrump. nytimes.com/interactive/20… #VoteThemOut #MAGAextremists #ChaosCaucus
Nearly all of the lawmakers who voted against Mr. McCarthy made statements casting doubt on the 2020 election, often repeatedly, not unlike the overall Republican caucus. At least 180 of 222 House Republicans have questioned the 2020 election, according to The Times’s analysis.

Researching candidates for #Election2022 with a simple strategy: I won't vote for anyone who has cashed a dime of Big Pharma donations and/or ignored pleas for help from the #VaccineInjured like my elected officials @RepJoeNeguse, Sen @MichaelBennet, and @GovofCO. #VoteThemOut 🧵
I lean left on some issues and right on others so I've always been independent. I'm a one-issue voter now, and Democrats have by and large been hypocritical & abysmal in acknowledging #VaccineInjuries, censoring us instead. My elected officials in #Colorado have left me for dead. Image
That doesn't mean I'm voting straight Republican either. Just because one party sucks doesn't mean the other is the right answer. They BOTH often put special interests before the best interests of the people. Do your research. opensecrets.org

Fannie Lou Hamer "Kept President Johnson Up at Night” — @queenie4rmnola link.medium.com/Cvt2CdeInsb

Want to know why?
"President Lyndon B. Johnson was terrified of her, terrified of her appeal she would make in 1964 before the Democratic National Committee’s credentials panel on behalf of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party (Brown, 2020)."
"White moderates will often proclaim that they support Black people and respect them, but that change is too risky, inappropriate, and unconventional. As a credit to her generation, Mrs. Hamer refused to buckle under the weight of oppression or others’ apathy — she persisted."

“Out of 75+ scholar citations, only 4 are women. Out of 90+ judge/justice citations, 5 are women. ‘Justice’ Samuel Alito cites HIMSELF 6 times. And this [SCOTUS opinion] would effectively govern the bodies of millions.”

An Albanese Labor Government will be on your side, but they need our help to win the next election. I have donated to fund their campaign, WILL YOU? Australia simply cannot afford another term of a Morrison led government. No effective action on global heating, death of the GBR,
2. more frequent and far more dangerous bushfires leading to death & property damage, more frequent and violent hail & rain storms as a consequence of rising av global temps. Extinction of more species i.e the koala, parrots, frogs etc due to fire, flood and over development.
3. Austerity measures that will hurt those least able to afford it (Pensioners, the disabled & the unemployed) more cuts to Medicare & hospitals and the list goes on.

In 2021, many parents fought hard to return school to normal. We were vilified and bullied. If any parent dared to speak out, we were shut out of school board meetings. We were called teacher-haters, child-killers, anti-vaxxers, even domestic terrorists. 1/🧵
We were attacked by anti-racist groups - because apparently wanting a normal life and in-person school for our children is something that only white-privileged racists would dare say. We fought the good fight. Went to battle. 2/
We were told 2 weeks to slow the spread. After that, many of our kids didn't see the inside of a classroom again for over a year. Then finally schools opened - but with restrictions and rules. 3/

In PA the state senators quietly targeted at least 3 small counties, all of which Trump had won handily. Their proposal was to have a private co scrutinize the county’s ballots, for free a move outside the official processes used for election challenges
1/
washingtonpost.com/politics/penns…
Only one county is known to have agreed to the senators’ request: rural Fulton County, on the Maryland border, where Trump performed better than anywhere else in the state, winning nearly 86 percent of the roughly 8,000 votes cast.
On Dec. 31, in the quiet of the winter holiday, county officials allowed a West Chester, Pa., company called #WakeTSI to spend an afternoon recounting about 1,000 mail-in ballots and taking data from county voting machines.

South Korea's voters miss President Moon Jae In a memorandum
The victory of conservative candidates in the mayoral elections in the country's two largest cities is a blow to Moon's Democratic Party.
The local elections could have an impact on foreign policy.

Mayoral elections in South Korea's capital Seoul always have national significance.

The ruling Democratic Party of President Moon Jae In not only lost Seoul to a candidate from the conservative opposition, but also the second largest city, Busan.

I have never been more hopeful about the future of Idaho than now, when @GovernorLittle, and two former Idaho House Speakers - @CongMikeSimpson and Bruce Newcomb are willing to call out Idaho Republican legislators for legislative mischief and nonsense that will only hurt
Idahoans in the end. All these legislators who are sponsoring bills to end the emergency declaration are taking actions to slow down vaccinations for all @AARPIdaho seniors who have been patiently waiting for their opportunity to get vaccinated while they watch people half their
age being vaccinated and they stay locked up at home. Now, just as it is seniors’ turn, Republican legislators want to make a totally symbolic statement and take a reckless action that will just mean Idaho seniors get to wait longer for vaccine. And, to add, apparently this group

I want you to recall that feeling of going to bed in disbelief on Nov 8, 2016 & then waking up Nov 9, 2016 with that sick feeling in your gut.

Now ask yourselves what you would’ve done differently those days Before 11/8/2016—

What are you doing now?
1/7

Remember your worst days of outrage as Trump & his enablers obliterated rule of law & decimated our democracy the past 4 years.

The hashtags #VoteBlue & #VoteThemOut are literally life or death for you & anyone you care about.

What would’ve you done those days before 11/8/2016?
Yesterday, I phonebanked for PA & FL.
This morning for TX & this afternoon for MI.

General Biden:

President Trump has run out of corners to round in his “War on intelligence”. The fires of contagion have encircled his wagon full of lies and there appears to be no escape. He lost the battle of COVID without even trying to win. Surrender!

General Harris:

President Trump’s “War on Intelligence” is nearing it’s end. It appears that both the President’s Secret Healthcare Plan and his cargo of bombshell revelations were both lost in the mail. They have run out of ammunition. Victory is near

You could say that a lot of what people do here, sharing news & political opinions to an audience of like-minded folks, is “preaching to the choir.” But in a country where 100 million people generally don’t vote, I see it as giving half the choir motivation to sing. #VoteThemOut
Someone asked me recently, when I praised @iamjohnoliver, “does it really matter, when everyone watching agrees?” And it really does. There is absolutely no reason to invest a second in trying to change a Trumper’s mind. There’s every reason to get the good people angry + engaged
This goes back to why the centrist Dems frustrate people so much: Stop trying to change the minds of swing voters! Start getting your own base excited! You have a majority waiting in the wings who just want to know that you’re there for THEM, not some racist in an Ohio diner.

Neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups, including this, 👇 were actively attacking communities around the US in 2017 already. It is critical to see them in context: Trump and the Kremlin back them up. A short thread. 👇
September 24, 2017. A group of about thirty neo-Nazis in white polo shirts, khaki pants and white bandannas covering their faces assembled in front of the community center, with a banner “For Race and Nation; Blood and Soil,” they gave Nazi salutes, lit flares.
Patriot Front, the group behind the attack, shares a rambling document called a “manifesto” on its website. “An African may have lived, worked, and even been classed as a citizen in America for centuries, yet he is not American." More here: medium.com/@ZarinaZabrisk…

Emperor Has No Clothes Dept: The NYTimes has stripped Trump to the bone. He is a brokeass clawback criming bullshitting grifter who used the position of President to enrich and elevate himself and his family while ignoring the actual job of running the country. #VoteThemOut
His administration involved cronies sent in to kneecap intel and judicial process and allow a pack of desperate sycophant losers to work side hustles. Most didn't work. The results of this devastation, dysfunction and incompetence will take years to repair.politico.com/news/2020/10/1…
Trump is not even campaigning anymore. The Wall, China, military, economy, education etc etc. He is left running against Hillary's emails. The 46 items he focused on in 2017 were all PR stunts or badly executed policy. Yeah Trump was bullshitting America. pbs.org/newshour/polit…

unprecedented numbers of americans have poured into the streets for months now, in the midst of a pandemic, to demand a reckoning with white supremacy once and for all. Black Lives Matter and it is time for americans to stand up now.
heed the lesson of the 2016 election: this is not a shoe-in. we will need to vote in such massive numbers as to overwhelm massive corruption. not only must we #votethemout, we must vote in enough people to pass the breathe act, a bill that invests in a new vision of public safety
we’ve got to vote in people all the way down the ballot who will enact meaningful policy change which rises to this historic moment and heeds the call of the american people for justice.
