Dear @facebook

You aided & abetted Cambridge Analytica & Russia to favor Trump in 2016.

It didn’t matter to you that a tyrant was installed, not fairly elected due in large part to your platform—all for profit.

You’re clearly favoring him again for 2020.

2/5
Cambridge Analytica harvested data on 50 Million people & had data on 230 Million more from @facebook

C-A, now Emerdata, is owned by Mercer & was run by Steve Bannon who compiled & used this data to sway the outcome of 2016 elections to favor Trump.

Christopher Wylie blew the whistle on @facebook allowing the harvesting 230M user’s data to C-A, who then used the data to target & sway American voters.

FB deleted his account.

C-A/Emerdata’s entire endgame is to infiltrate & sway elections; Globally

Last year on #NationalComingOutDay, a young man I know had a life altering effect on me when he became a statistic.

25% of youth who come out to their family immediately become homeless. If you’re POC, the statistic is higher.

Here’s Jack’s story from #NationalComingOutDay 2018
Last Sunday— October 6, 1998 was the 21st anniversary of the murder of Matthew Shepherd. He was driven to a remote, rural area in WY, robbed, pistol-whipped, tied to a fence, tortured & left to die all because he was gay.

He would’ve been 42 years old.

#NationalComingOutDay
Had the world had not known Matthew Shepherd & seen how hate let him be beaten, bruised & forgotten to die on a fence post—or Jack become homeless— days like #NationalComingOutDay or #Pride month wouldn’t need to exist.

I long for the day when there is no need to declare this.

#ImpeachmentHearings Livetweet for today. The Chairs are seated and Nunes has put up big posters about the whistleblower. The witnesses walk in.
Vindman is gazing about the room intensely, even looking up at the ceiling, I assume this is what soldiers do when they scope out the security situation in a new place. He is in dress uniform with many medals.
Jennifer Williams stands somberly next to Vindman, they wait for photographers to finish so they can be sworn in.

THREAD: Public #ImpeachmentHearings are set to begin at 10 a.m. As we wait, here’s a reminder of what we’ve seen so far:
At least six administration officials—Gordon Sondland, Kurt Volker, Bill Taylor, George Kent, Fiona Hill, and Alex Vindman—have independently confirmed key elements of Trump’s efforts to extort Ukraine to manufacture dirt on his political opponents. themoscowproject.org/dispatch/new-t…
And that's not even counting Mick Mulvaney, who publicly confirmed the quid pro quo before desperately trying to walk his statement back: cnn.com/2019/10/17/pol…

The #ImpeachmentInquiry public hearings begin tomorrow, 11/13.

So far, 3 witnesses have been called to testify:
▪️ William Taylor
▪️ George Kent
▪️ Marie Yovanovitch

Their testimony will put the damning facts of Trump’s gross abuse of power before the American people.

THREAD
Witness 1: William Taylor

Key takeaways from deposition:
▪️ Trump & Sondland ordered the quid pro quo.
▪️ Ukraine understood why the aid was being withheld
▪️ The order came directly from Trump.
▪️ Giuliani was acting on Trump’s behalf.
Witness 2: George Kent

Key takeaways from deposition:
▪️ Giuliani led a smear campaign against Yovanovitch.
▪️ Ukrainian officials understood Giuliani represented Trump.
▪️ It was clear to Kent: Trump wanted Zelensky “to go to microphone & say investigations, Biden & Clinton.”

#Thread #Kurukshetra #Analytics #Mahabharata
Started a fun project of mine today. Recording the duels of Kurukshetra war in an excel sheet in anticipation of some interesting pattern. Watch this space for interesting tidbits. Full exercise may take quite a while
Interesting Results! #Kurukshatra #Analytics. So many duels without a declared result on Day One
Could record two general battles and 26 duels on Day One. Only 6 of those duels ended decisively. Pandava side suffered horribly in the hands of Bhishma. Uttara killed in the hands of Shalya. Saving grace being Abhimanyu countering Bhishma and winning over Brihadbala #Kurukshetra
