Hearing that a vote could be coming today on California's #SB136. Call your state senator now to support repealing this duplicative sentence enhancement that has cost California more than $1 billion.
Watching here to see what is going on in the California Senate this afternoon: calchannel.com/live-webcast/
An overwhelming majority of California crime victims (87%) would rather see the $1 billion these sentences have cost the state spent on mental health and substance abuse treatment. allianceforsafetyandjustice.org/wp-content/upl… #SB136

As incredible as Hadestown is, the most poetically, devastatingly sad element of the show requires extrinsic knowledge of the show’s history, specifically the fact that “Why We Build The Wall” was written long before Trump’s presidential run — not in response to it.
Each time I listen to this, the earlier version, I’m taken aback at the thought that the people who initially heard the song heard it without thinking about Donald J. Trump. open.spotify.com/track/1oOKc8oF…
When you sit in the @hadestown audience on Broadway now, watching @pagepatrick sing the song, everyone is in a state of disbelief: It’s impossible not to ponder the president and his campaign pledge. open.spotify.com/track/5udqEUjd…

THE POPULAR VOTE
🤔But Do You Know Why?
I WILL Answer Both
"WHAT & WHY?"
Democrats Want To DESTROY
📜THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE

😳👉🏽THEY FLUNKED Civics.

UReady?
1. Go Grab a Notepad & Pen🖊️
🍿& Popcorn
2. I've been urged into explaining The Electoral College vs. The Popular Vote Provision of Our US Constitution & The Reasoning Behind This System
(US Constitution Article 2, Sec1, Clause 3 & the 12th Amendment). law.cornell.edu/constitution/a…
3. Closely analyzed, WITHOUT bias or political party thinking, I will show the brilliance of the peopel we call The Founding Fathers in establishing "
the Electoral College" a type of voting system we use for selecting our president.

🏆In the astonishingly corrupt world of politics in Washington today, it is important to acknowledge people that do the right thing no matter the consequences. I think we should acknowledge the 58 members of the 115th Congress who did the right thing.

#ImpeachTrump
🥇These members of the 115th Congress didn’t think about the political ramifications, their reputations or the timing; they just voted honorably not to table the measure to impeach a prez who is clearly not abiding by the law or representing our country the way it deserves to be.
🏆Most of these members of the 115th Congress are still in Congress, but some are Governors or in new positions. One member, Louise Slaughter D-NY, sadly died in 2018. More on her later.

Many of the #youthvote kids that I've talked to are primarily concerned with 3 things, Trump, Climate Change & Gun Control. Don't tell me they aren't voting this year. My impression is that they sure are! #ElectionDay #Vote #TuesdayThoughts

2/"Young people historically vote at lower rates, typically, than other age groups, and that has been especially true of the midterms. But this year, registration for younger voters is up substantially, with some studies anticipating the highest youth turnout in decades.
3/"We wanted to know what issues are motivating young people at such impressive rates this year, so we asked. In just a few days we had more than 800 passionate, sharp and often surprising responses. The respondents frequently mentioned climate change, no matter their party

Ignore the polls and get out there and #Vote on November 6th. Relying on polling is a relic of a time gone by.
I’m not saying looking at @FiveThirtyEight’s model and charts and stuff isn’t cool, because it is and provides some insight. But no matter what the numbers say, it’s most certainly NEVER an excuse to not #Vote because you feel your peeps are a “lock”
Need nothing further than to point to 2016. Which by the way, @FiveThirtyEight didn’t really have wrong, but the “selected not elected” mindset existed before 2016. Why else would over 100 million people choose NOT to participate in their civic duty to choose their leaders.

Iowa & South Carolina voters! If u care about public education, u must call ur state legislators NOW to oppose pending legislation to join the so-called "Convention of States" to amend the U.S. Constitution! This effort is backed by the #Kochs & #ALEC! Sourced info. below. 1/
2/ The #Kochs--who support and fund the pending legislation in states like Iowa and SC to call a Convention of States to amend the U.S. Constitution (see posts below)--are determined to undermine public education. commondreams.org/views/2018/02/… …
3/ Here is a handout w/ links to model legislation from #ALEC--a #Koch funded organization --that would undermine public education. #ALEC is also pushing for a Convention of States to amend the US Constitution via pending bills in states like IA and SC!
