This is a sick sign of the gun culture happening in America.

This little girl isn’t really crying tears of joy because she got her own gun for her bday. She wants love & approval from her parents & this gifted gun represents that & gets confused with love.
Owning a gun is probably something she’s heard is important to her parents, so getting a gun is a sign of her parents love. She wants nothing to get in the way of her parents ❤️so she’ll be proud of it & not let anyone take it from her
A gun representing❤️
😳its a cult mentality
I don’t wanna wish Happy Birthday to little girls & boys crying tears of joy when they’re gifted a gun by their parents..
I’d rather wish Happy Birthday to the 15,600 American kids killed or injured by guns each year

I’ll save my bday wishes for the 17 month old shot in #Odessa

The Ukraine issue is being conflated with other critical issues
I want each reporter to hammer home to every GOP Senator/Congressman the following key points

First, will they declare these High Crimes & Misdemeanors IF Trump used Aid to pressure the Ukraine to get Oppo research
Second, are you willing to support Impeachment Inquiries IF Trump continues to Obstruct Congress from obtaining the truth about Ukraine?

Third, are you concerned with Trumps interference/persecution of Whistleblowers & if so will you join the call for Impeachment Inquiries?
Fourth, if you support Trumps attacks on Joe Bidens last surviving son why do you look the other way when the Intelligence Community has mysteriously dropped numerous investigations into Trumps own kids. Will you support calls for FULL investigations into Ivanka, Don Jr & Eric?

We keep talking about Iran, but why don't we talk about the fact that Trump, who controls the US involvement in Iran, partnered w/ financial backers of the IRG?

"Trump was in business with someone that his company knew was likely a partner with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard"
Here's an older thread talking about how Trump Tower Baku may have been a Money Laundering operation & Trumps biz partner the Mammadov family had known ties to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard



@maddow @MaddowBlog @JoyAnnReid @mega2e
And we shouldn't forget the great reporting of @adamdavidson in his 2017 New Yorker article "Donald Trump’s Worst Deal"

IMHO National Security is the most critical reason to impeach a POTUS. Azerbaijan is just another drop in the Trump corruption bucket

Hey #MoscowMitch you say you don't like your nickname & you bring up McCarthyism. Do ya really wanna throw that term around?

With McCarthyism most of the accused were not guilty. But now we have the internet. You try to hide behind PACS...but WE SEE YOU & your Russian backers
WE SEE YOU #MoscowMitch when Len Blavatnik, partner of Oleg Deripaska, pumped $6.35M into GOP PACS, going directly to you Marco Rubio & #LeningradLindsey

& WE SEE YOU when your former staff helped lobby to bring a $200M Blavatnik & Deripaska project to...wait for it KENTUCKY
WE SAW YOU #MoscowMitch when you backed efforts to lift Deripaskas Russian sanctions clearing the way for his $200M deal to land in Kentucky

& WE SEE YOU #MoscowMitch when the most critical election security threat is Russia but you OBSTRUCT us from fixing it by blocking votes

TRUMP’S WORLD

What would the world according to Trump look like?

Will there be golden statues of the great man for all to adore? What about the creation of ‘The Great Book of Trumpism’, will it be a bestseller?

May libraries be closed as it will be the only book needed by all?
TRUMP’S WORLD

In Trump’s World will be required to bless Saint Trump morning, noon & night.

And of course have him in your prayers always.

Trump’s mighty word will be used to solve each dispute & make every deal.

Those who object will of course be religiously defamed.
TRUMP’S WORLD

There will be no escape from Trump’s World.

Eyes in the sky will observe your every move.

Your bank account will not escape the Trump Tariff. It takes oodles of money to provide His gracious humanitarian assistance to Mankind, right?

Cough up or cough your last.

Justice for The Falsely Accused
@JuliaBerkowitz1
Rock and pop music is FULL of songs glorifying pedophilia and sex with underage people. Most of those artists aren't blacklisted, the media is not crucifying them. Some examples... THREAD
Iggy Pop - Look Away

"I slept wlth Sable when she was 13
Her parents were too rich to do anything
She rocked her way around L.A
'Til a New York doll carried her away"
The song is about a real life groupie called Sable Starr ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sable_Sta… ). Rumor has it that several big name rock stars in the 1970s slept with her while she was underage. Iggy Pop admitted to that on his part, in this song.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

Over the past 2 days, hundreds of doctors have shared heartbreaking accounts of how #gunviolence is a #publichealth issue. These are the stories of #docs4gunsense ... May their words make a difference.

The result of a bullet ricocheting inside the skull and destroying the brain on CT scan. The worst trauma I have seen. GUNS ARE A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE – Gen Geller MD, NY #docs4gunsense @drgenngeller
The damage a bullet does to a 1 year old brain as it ricochets back and for. The guilt the family feels. The sadness we all feel.
