Democrat Jim Hood says his GOP rivals are “ridiculous” for refusing to meet with women alone:

“If I couldn’t meet with women alone to discuss issues important to them and to Mississippi, I wouldn’t be able to do my job,” the AG said. #MSelex #MSGov

AG Hood says he will right for equal pay, right domestic violence, and provide economic opportunities for women: “I will do all these things while meeting with women—alone if necessary—to hear their voices & champion their causes,” @HoodForGovernor said.

THREAD: Republican senate candidate Mario Barnes is promoting his campaign with a video showing him punching a man who “questioned” him.

Supporters enthusiastically applauded the pro-Trump candidate for it at a campaign event. #MSelex 1/

This clip shows Mississippi Senate District 5 candidate Mario Barnes punching voter Lance Acton in Sept. 2018. Barnes says Acton questioned his military service. He is using this clip to promote his campaign after supporters cheered when he told the story. #MSelex 2/
The victim called Tupelo police, but new footage shows officers praising Senate candidate Mario Barnes for “whippin’ that ass.”

Officer 1: “I’m good with that!”

Officer 2: “That’s what I said, shit!”

1: “Rock on, brotha.”

2: “I bet he won’t question him next time.” #MSelex 3/

NADIA MURAD: ISIS murdered my mother & six brothers.
TRUMP: ”Where are they now?”
MURAD: “They killed them. They’re in the mass grave in Sinjar. I’m still fighting just to live in safety.”
TRUMP: “I know the area very well that you’re talking about.” washingtonpost.com/politics/a-yaz…
TRUMP: “And they gave you a Nobel Peace Prize? For what reason?”

MURAD: “For what reason? For, after all this happened to me, I didn’t give up. I made it clear to everyone that ISIS raped thousands of Yazidi women.”

TRUMP: “Oh, really, is that right? So you escaped.”
MURAD: “I escaped, but I don’t have my freedom yet.”

Welp. Unionizing the Revolution was great PR, at least:

“Bernie Sanders' unionized staff wants a $15 per hour living wage & 100% paid health care for those earning under $60k. The campaign leadership has thus far resisted.”

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ washingtonpost.com/politics/labor…
“I am struggling financially to do my job...we’ve already had 4 people quit in the past 4 weeks bc of financial struggles,” wrote a Bernie Sanders organizer.

Another employee said his co-workers “shouldn’t have to get payday loans to sustain themselves.”

Another Bernie Sanders staffer said the campaign needs to pay higher wages wages “because I need to be able to feed myself.”

Trump’s WORLDWIDE Effect on the Global Reproductive Rights of Women

Trump and his conservative Christian-centric administration are using positions of authority to impose religious policies on long-established reproductive rights that put women around the world at risk.
Background

Ronald Reagan signed the Mexico City Policy in 1984. This sweeping mandate against reproductive freedom around the globe denied,

“US federal funds to any organisation involved in providing abortion services overseas or counselling women about them.”
Though revoked by every Democrat and reinstated by every Republican
since, Trump has taken up the cause with renewed vigor.

Every time the global gag has been reimposed by a Republican president, rates of back street and self-administered abortions have increased.

It is vital that all voters educate themselves on the #Issues. Where does each candidate stand on the issues important to you? What are their priorities? Do they share your values? Do they exhibit the experience, knowledge & temperament for the highest office in the Land? #VOTE

1. At the recent #SOTU address, women legislators dressed in white attempting to make a "striking visual statement" about how the Trump administration has handled issues important to women, from health care to equal pay. Oddly the visual backfired on these #Democrat woman.
2. Why did they sit stone faced silent for accomplishments like catching sex traffickers and putting these creeps in jail, freeing young girls from sexual slavery, and the remarkable fact that under Trump unemployment for woman is now at an all time low. Why no applause?
3. The only time these #Democratic #Hypocrites rejoiced is when @realDonaldTrump pointed out that there were more woman in congress than every before in history. They praise only their own accomplishment of merely being elected, not any concrete results of any of their efforts.
