#KavaNo

Trump is an unindicted co-conspirator implicated in committing a felony & illegally influencing the election.

He picked Kavanaugh for his view that a POTUS should be exempt from investigations, indictments & the law.

If you can’t make it to a protest, protest online.

Illinois ratified the ERA in June, leaving just One state needed to change constitutional hurdles to ratification.

The 14th & 19th aren’t enough.

The ERA ensures equal rights regardless of gender, was passed in 1974 - 44 years ago. Why is this still even a thing?

#RatifyERA
The ERA is also an economic issue. It’s proven that when women earn the same as their male colleagues it stimulates the economy.
Gender equality will boost the economy over $4.3 trillion in a decade.
Reminder: the GOP #TaxScam will cost $1.9 trillion in the same time.

#RatifyERA
73% believe the #ERA is part of the Constitution. It’s not.

It was passed in 1974 but 44 years later it still hasn’t been ratified.

Even guns have a constitutional amendment.

The only guarantee women have in the Constitution is the 19th amendment-The right to vote.

President Obama left over 100 open fed judicial seats vacant—bc McConnell blocked and refused to hold confirm hearings on federal judges.

In July, Trump signed an EO to end the competitive selection process for judges. This makes them political appointees who he can fire at will
In order to rush his judge noms thru, Trump is bypassing judicial ratings processes by ABA before making his noms. His predecessors went thru the screening process 1st & nixed judges not qualified by ABA

Only 2 judges from 1989—2016 were rated not qualified compared to Trump’s 6
“We’ve appointed a record number of judges who will defend our constitution…And we’re putting on to the bench a record number of judges. And in a short period of time, we are going to have probably the all-time record for the appointment of judges.”—Trump

The Myth of the Lazy Nonvoter
nyti.ms/2CvoRaT
2/"If history is any indicator, only around 40 percent of eligible voters will vote in the midterm elections. Most people assume that voter turnout remains this low because Americans are apathetic and simply don’t want to vote. But it’s more likely that most Americans do want to
3/"vote, and one of the root causes of low turnout is this country’s framework of restrictive voting laws. The United States is unique in allowing state laws to largely govern voting in federal elections. Ever since key federal protections were dismantled by the Supreme Court in

The scene outside the Supreme Court right now is unreal.
Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court Confirmation Vote Was One Of The Closest In US History buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg… #SCOTUS
Only one Supreme Court nominee was confirmed on a closer vote. That vote was in 1881. buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg…

Below are 31 times Kavanaugh lied under oath to the Senate Judiciary Committee. Please remember that lying under oath is a felony. It doesn't matter if it's about drinking or sex or using stolen documents or lying about political matters.

A lie is a lie.

<THREAD>
Lie 1) In 2004, Kavanaugh claimed nomination of anti-abortion, anti-LGBTQ judge William Pryor was “not one that I worked on personally.”

Truth: Newly released emails showed Kavanaugh was involved in selecting Pryor, interviewing him, and working to confirm him.
Lie 2) In 2006, Kavanaugh denied he “primarily handl[ed]” nomination of racist Judge Charles Pickering, who reduced sentence of man convicted of burning a cross in front of interracial couple’s house.

Truth: Emails show Kavanaugh prepared documents on Pickering's behalf.

Wow, this interaction says all you need to know abt Brett Kavanaugh. Kavanaugh is so embroiled in toxic GOP politics that as a nominee for the Supreme Court Judge Kavanaugh is unwilling to even shake the hand of the father of a victim of gun violence, regardless of his politics.
They say a picture is worth 1000 words, well this picture of Brett Kavanaugh refusing to shake the hand of Ferd Guttenberg should be worth a lifetime appointment.
This ⚖TREAD about the degradation of the judicial confirmation process many be useful to many of you as you seek to understand the process of how judges end up on #SCOTUS. Bett Kavanaugh is now going through a truncated process. Please share if useful.

Republicans announced #SCOTUS hearings will begin on Sept 4th. Let’s recap how the Senate GOP’s blatant and historic obstruction of Judge Kavanaugh's record is denying both the Senate & the American people access to critical information about a potential Supreme Court justice.
The GOP is deliberately withholding the entire record of Judge Kavanaugh’s 3 years as Staff Secretary– the most senior position he held in the Bush Admin & a job Kavanaugh himself said was “formative” & “instructive” as preparation for being a judge
Meanwhile, the small % of docs the Judiciary Committee will get to see are being pre-screened by a GOP political operative who worked for Kavanaugh in the Bush admin and currently represents Steve Bannon, Reince Priebus and Don McGahn.

If this seems shady, it’s because it is.
