GUT CHECK:

The sitting U.S. president appears to be a Kremlin agent.

The Republican Party leadership is aiding and abetting him.

The right-wing media is covering for them.

Flag-waving Republican voters are perfectly fine with treason.

THREAD (1/3): #BERNIE vs #BETO

The 2020 Dem primary is going to be intense one way or the other. The stakes are too high for it not to be. Heading into 2019, we'll see lots of early maneuvering and skirmishes. That's fine, AS LONG AS THEY ARE NOT CHARACTER ATTACKS.
THREAD (2/3): #BERNIE vs #BETO

A character attack directly impugns the honesty, integrity, and/or ethics of a candidate. Examples: Candidate X is a liar. Candidate Y is immoral. An issue debate is perfectly acceptable, i.e. Candidate Z is wrong on health care, the economy, etc.
THREAD (3/3): #BERNIE vs #BETO

Neither #BernieSanders nor #BetoORourke have announced if they are running. Supporters of each should feel free to battle out the issues, BUT AVOID CHARACTER ATTACKS. We cannot afford to give needless ammunition to the GOP.

I'm watching Trump, Pelosi, and Schumer bicker about the budget and the wall. This spectacle is beneath the dignity of this country.
Of course I agree with the Dem position, but the fact that we're here is just sad.
For anyone misconstruing my tweet, I'm agreeing with what Nancy Pelosi said: "I don’t think we should have a debate in front of the press on this." The fact that Trump got schooled is a good thing. But the reality is that none of us should want that kind of spectacle.

The incessant attacks against the #Media by Trump are dangerous and this is taking it to a whole new level.

RT - Take the survey and show him what America thinks!

The new survey on Trumps official website "Mainstream Media Accountability Survey".

1. Do you believe that the mainstream media actually cares about working Americans?

2. Do you believe that the mainstream media has unfairly reported on our presidency?

3. Do you trust MSNBC to fairly report on our presidency?
4. Do you trust CNN to fairly report on our presidency?

5. Do you trust Fox News to fairly report on our presidency?

6. On which issues does the mainstream media do the worst job of representing Republicans? (Select as many that apply.)

#FTR: Nixon WH Counsel, John Dean, is pretty much universally considered a hero in the Watergate scandal.

While he wasn't an angel, his cooperation ultimately led to Nixon's impeachment and resignation.

Hmm, I wonder why Trump would call him a "RAT" and view him negatively...?
#FLAG: Trump invokes McCarthyism, while hurling unfounded accusations at Democrats and the Special Counsel.

He claims he demands transparency, while his White House lies at every turn.

When he says "many lives have been ruined," he's setting up pardons.
#FLAG: Trump and the Right Wing often say "No Collusion...except by Crooked Hillary and the Democrats."

It's a repeated counter-narrative about the FusionGPS commissioned #SteeleDossier, claiming it's collusion.

It's been debunked. But truth isn't truth.

Far Left Hate Watch ❌
@FarLeftHate
Why does Twitter deliberately target Right-wing accounts for Shadow-banning and why it will sooner rather than later completely back-fire and why they are ultimately going to destroy the Left and what a great day that will be. Thread. 1/15
It is no surprise Twitter targets accounts for “wrong think” or as we on the #Right like to call it “free-think” this is because of two events which are now totally and utterly inextricably linked, #Brexit and #Trump and the Establishment have been rocked to the core. 2/15
Neither of which were supposed to happen & yet they did now the Establishment is determined never to allow it to happen again or even at all, the reason for them happening was nothing to do with social media, but was to do with people knocking on doors and persuading others. 3/15

Right wing media outlets have been colluding for years #DarkJournalism

When your funding is coming from the same people, why not align your talking points as well.

Get familiar with project Groundswell.

According to incredible reporting in Mother Jones, the group started out meeting in the offices of Judicial Watch in early 2013. It was led by Ginni Thomas (wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas) and JOHN BOLTON. Yup.

Trump never inspired his base. He channeled it, spoke their language, lived their reality, because he was as steeped in it as they were. That's why this is such a mess. There's no philosophy, just reaction.
He watched the same shows, listened to the same talking heads, bought into the alternate reality right wing media created. It changes daily, switches allegiances when necessary, never addresses any concern besides the need to fear. 2/
Other Republicans failed because they only pretended to believe the lie. They knew the media was concocting all of this fear and paranoia for manipulative purposes. They couldn't match his level of belief. 3/
