.@SenGillibrand literally just said, with a straight face, and to applause, that the @NRA is against the “Violence Against Women Act” because it wants men and predators to have easy access to guns to use them to kill women. #CNNTownHall
Now @SenGillibrand sidesteps a question on funding charter schools and goes into funding for public schools, continuing her set of rehearsed, prepared answers. #CNNTownHallSham
What a beautiful, sanctimonious ending, wherein @SenGillibrand claimed she is a public servant for good and that she was put on this planet to help people (but still considers Hillary Clinton a role model?) #GillibrandTownHallSham

The Jew Who Died for @Ilhan Omar

Lawrence Freedman went to Somalia in 1992 as part of the U.S.-led relief effort.

wsj.com/articles/the-j… via @WSJ
Rep. Ilhan Omar, a freshman Democrat from Minnesota, has become widely known for her attacks on supporters of Israel. Ms. Omar is a naturalized citizen whose Somali refugee family settled in the U.S. when she was a teenager.
Tens of thousands of Somali refugees relocated to the U.S.—some 25,000 in the Minneapolis area—to escape the starvation, famine and civil war that turned Somalia into a lawless, failed state in the early 1990s.

FBI Mans Testimony Points to Wrongdoing Well Beyond Spying | RealClearInvestigations realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2019/…
From the end of 2015 to the end of 2018, Bill Priestap was assistant director of the FBI's Counterintelligence Division, which meant he oversaw the FBI’s global counterintelligence efforts.
In that role, he managed both of the bureau’s most politically sensitive investigations: the inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified information and the probe into whether Donald Trump or his campaign conspired with Russia to steal the 2016 presidential election.

Meanwhile 157 Republicans voted against the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act because of NRA pressure - and ya know we’re in Gilead
huffpost.com/entry/republic…
And here are Republicans booing Rep Dingell for saying people who have been convicted - saying it again, convicted - of domestic violence should not be able to have guns. Make a list. Fund their opponents. Vote them out in 2020.

The @NRA opposes the Violence Against Women Act because “the legislation could lead to firearm confiscations over misdemeanor domestic violence or stalking convictions.”

Why are we letting the gun lobby write our gun laws? #vawa

nationaljournal.com/s/677579/crack…
According to @dnewhauser, there was a Monday conference call during which GOP leaders urged the @NRA to go big now so GOP lawmakers who vote against #VAWA have political cover.
The Violence Against Women Act, which gives law enforcement tools to remove guns from abusers, doesn’t have a single Republican co-sponsor seven weeks before it’s expiration. #VAWA has been reauthorized three times since 1994 with bipartisan support. nytimes.com/2019/03/13/us/…

.@NRA gun saleswoman Dana Loesch says there‘s no connection between guns in the home and suicide, even though there’s a “preponderance of current evidence indicating that gun availability is a risk factor for youth suicide in the United States.” mediamatters.org/blog/2018/12/0…
.@DLoesch also blames bad parenting for easy access to guns, but fails to mention that the @NRA doesn’t give guidelines for safe gun storage (eg, locked, unloaded, separated from ammo). In fact, some NRA instructors recommend keeping guns in kids’ rooms. google.com/amp/s/m.huffpo…
Imagine being a mother and still putting out misinformation to your @NRA audience that endangers their children - just to line your pockets.

Unsecured guns result in gun suicides among children and teens every single day in this country. Get the facts: besmartforkids.org

@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK @BrightonSurvivorsNET “In the light of a highly disturbing increase of #transphobia locally & nationally…” IF everything anybody says or does is #transphobia, of course you can say it is rising. Any reputable statistics?
@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK “…so the date @Womans_Place_UK event feels like a concerted effort to make #trans ppl, & particularly #transwomen, feel #intimidated and #invalidated” Is it the position of SN that the sensitivities of #transwomen mean that #democracy should be suspended any time they say so?

The irony of American mass shootings is the mostly White males who commit them target White peers who are most likely to oppose gun control.
In other words, American mass shootings are predominantly White on White crime, at both the societal and legislative levels.
Again, take note that the folk who are most likely to be victimized by White male extremists are the least likely to hold them accountable.
