Repeating what these women's GOP opponents said in their last campaigns does not sound like I've been hacked--it sounds like I covered their campaigns. Baldwin is an historic figure. So is Duckworth. But ignoring the GOP really doesn't benefit Democrats.
Trump is a birther. Tammy Duckworth has already been assailed by her GOP opponents for not being born here. The GOP is misogynist AND homophobic. Baldwin has gotten attacked by her GOP opponents for being a lesbian. Biden is no risk taker. His donors even less so.
Biden is not the nominee. And no candidate ever won the nomination with 25% of the vote. So maybe there are folks to be registered and Senate and House races to campaign for rather than choosing a VP for a candidate who cannot be the 2024 incumbent. Just saying.

This thread.📌 Wow. The bullying I endured in Catholic school for being the geeky smart girl was gutting. This abuse stays with you. Make sure the kids in your life know YOU know this sh*t happens and that it is TERRIBLE. Don't handwave it or say it's not that bad. Be an ally.
I ran this mentoring/writing group for middle grade kids for a decade. They all needed to write out their miseries. Fifth graders can be brutal to each other. And that stuff gets in your head and stays there forever. Kids need to know that it's real and their pain is not "silly."
We have to remember these are the years kids start self-medicating, cutting, having disordered eating or other self-harming behaviors. It's more common in girls, but boys have a harder time talking about it. There is a lot of kid/tween/teen pain we can help to mitigate.

This piece repeats the lie that the DNC rigged the 2016 debate schedule for Hillary Clinton, arguably the best and most knowlegeable Democratic debater in decades, against Bernie Sanders.

The D.N.C. Chairman Knows No One Is Happy. Neither Is He. nytimes.com/2019/12/15/us/…
This piece is wholly uncritical of Perez with not one voice interviewed about his tenure, which is frankly astonishing. Not one word about how he had pledged to be DNC chair full time and is not. But it is revealed that Biden pushed hard for his being chair.
This long piece finds time to do a negative tangent on Pete Buttigieg, who it also states was the only one running for chair who raised money. But there is not a single sentence about the DNC being flat broke since Hillary Clinton stopped raising money for them.

Wait till they see the @Amazon ad with the two lesbians running into each others' arms and kissing that's on every network, or the @GreyGoose vodka ad with two black lesbians dancing and kissing or....It must be hard for these folks to live in the real world.
Also, "One Million Moms" is more like a few hundred bigoted moms you should never let your kids near. Their website and the campaign against LGBTQ people is really vile. Imagine your life is so empty of meaning you have to fill it with harming others.
And maybe if I had had some lesbian Hallmark movies to watch as a teenager I wouldn't have tried to kill myself at 16 like nearly half of LGBTQ youth do now, as I reported here.

Last week, my firm Anvil Strategies went in to the field to poll Star Wars fans about their opinions on the franchise. Here are some of our most interesting results: (Thread)
First we asked people if they consider themselves to be a Star Wars fan and then asked them to name all 8 (currently released) films in the Skywalker trilogies. We terminated calls with people who couldn't name all 8 films. Total sample size was 3400 people.
What is your favorite Star Wars film?

Empire Strikes Back 47%
A New Hope 17%

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.

The Poway synagogue shooter said he hated Jews for their role in "cultural Marxism". So, who spread the conspiracy theory concerning "cultural Marxism", which claims it's a Jewish conspiracy against Western Civilization?

Who popularized that? Donald Trump knows the man...
2) I revisit this every few months, when a new act of foreign or domestic terrorism happens and the perpetrator cites "cultural Marxism" as a reason. Back in '016 I wrote this piece which listed some of the then-current examples. 4thgenwar.wordpress.com/2016/07/11/tru… There are many more now.
3) "cultural Marxism" is now the grand unifying narrative for the hard, fascist & neo-Nazi right. It does the same work as did the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" forgery did, a century ago, to inspire Hitler & his Nazis. In '016 a book with a section on "cultural Marxism" was

It is imperative we expose the ongoing #GOP narrative that uses Leader Nancy Pelosi as a lightening rod for misogynistic, ageist and partisan attacks and what motives and attitudes lie behind it. /1 #IStandWithNancy #GOPLies #DemocraticPrincipledLeadership
In order to get at that truth, it is vital for voters to meet Nancy Pelosi, understand her background, accomplishments and values as well as her vital importance to the Party of the People./2
Nancy Pelosi has consistently put her constituents first and foremost and as Speaker and Minority Leader she has served all Americans with the same commitment and intensity./3 #PrincipledDemocraticLeadership #IStandWithNancy
