NEW: Governor Lee Signs First KKK Grand Wizard Day Proclamation

Despite protests to have the bust of the first KKK Grand Wizard removed from the TN capitol, @GovBillLee instead just re-signed a proclamation making tomorrow Nathan Bedford Forrest Day.

tnholler.com/2019/07/gov-le…
Let’s be SUPER clear here - @GovBillLee says “I was just following the law” re-signing the First KKK Grand Wizard Day proclamation... but lawmakers refuse to sign these things when it’s convenient ALL THE DAMN TIME.
For those asking, here’s the proclamation by Tennessee Governor @GovBillLee declaring tomorrow “Nathan Bedford Forrest Day”

Forrest was the first Grand Wizard of the KKK. Yes, that KKK. (See above for more)
Yes, Governor @BillHaslam previously signed it too.

So does anyone have any plans for KKK day tomorrow?

@GovBillLee, care to tell us how you plan to celebrate?

#NEW: @aurabogado reports that DHS is farming out children of migrants.
One of those places is Bethany Services in Pennsylvania, about which I have reported.

The US is quietly opening shelters for babies and young kids. One has 12 children and no mothers revealnews.org/article/the-us…
Bethany Services is linked to Betsy DeVos and has been involved in abuses of kids, and has disturbing anti-LGBTQ policies. This is not a good agency for any children to be housed by, but has numerous sites nationally.
Read Aura's piece and her thread. 📌📌📌 This just gets worse and worse.

#NEW on @OANN: Former Pres. Bill Clinton has issued a statement responding to the recent indictment against Jeffrey Epstein.
#FactCheck: Flight logs show former Pres. Clinton taking at least 26 trips aboard Jeffrey Epstein's “Lolita Express”--even apparently ditching his Secret Service detail for at least five of the flights.
#Update: The statement specifically says Pres. Clinton accompanied Epstein on “trips” and not “flights,” suggesting there could have been 4 occasions made up of multiple stops.

And who said: "unconditional direct income support to farmers is manifestly absurd in today’s world when it maintains uncompetitive farming practices that have negative implications for the climate, the environment or people’s health"?

#New PA cong. map increases D chance of winning the House majority by 4%. They only need a 6.8% generic ballot margin now (down from 7.7) to be favored.

Diff. will be closer to 10% in Nov when uncertainty from polls is ⬇️. Redraw is a very big deal.

One major reason the new PA map is such a big gain for Democrats is that it solidifies, not just tips, PA districts in Philly burbs. Also creates one additional vulnerable R district. (Easily seen in this map made by @JMilesColeman)
My forecasting model will have new PA map in the near future. This is not just a simple switch; it’s a coding redesign, restructuring of input, & drawing new geographic files. Takes a while (for me, a student).

In the meantime, just add 3-4% to the model: bit.ly/2018_house
