1/ With the #IowaCaucus just days away, I am going to use a series of threads to make the case AGAINST #BernieSanders. PART 5: Bernie is a hypocrite and criticizes others when he has taken the same positions.
2/ #BernieSanders repeatedly criticized both #HillaryClinton and #JoeBiden for the #1994CrimeBill - which he voted for and embraced.
3/ This is nothing new for #BernieSanders. cnn.com/2016/02/23/pol…
4/ In 2016, #BernieSanders attacked Hillary Clinton on a host of issues that he had taken the same position on.
5/ #BernieSanders keeps saying he is fighting big money and the establishment, but he keeps having campaign finance violations - in 2016 and 2020.

1/ With the #IowaCaucus just days away, I am going to use a series of threads to make the case AGAINST #BernieSanders. PART 7: Bernie is no progressive saint.
2/ While BernieLama cultist claim #BernieSanders has always fought the good fight from the 1960's on, the reality is Bernie has always been about Bernie and did not even bother to vote until it was about Bernie.
3/ #BernieSanders has an awful record on Guns. slate.com/news-and-polit…

2/ The #NYTimes dismissed #BernieSanders and his my way alone approach. "Three years into the Trump administration, we see little advantage to exchanging one over-promising, divisive figure in Washington for another."
3/ After almost 30 years in Congress, #BernieSanders has passed only 7 bills (one of which I think was to name a post office). He is unable to work across the aisle. How will he get anything done if elected?

1. Oh hey. Just ANOTHER national #BernieSanders surrogate who calls himself a progressive & civil rights advocate who has a history of #misogyny like Cenk & Rogan. See what he says about "hitting women." Bernie surrounds himself with vile people.
2. According to Green's bio, #BernieSanders brought him onto his campaign in 2016. He has spoken at his events. Bernie elevates these people and gives them a platform. In return these surrogates spew hateful and demeaning rhetoric at other candidates while giving him cover.
3. Green pushed a MAGA conspiracy and the Trump "Lock her Up" rhetoric. #Bernie does not disavow these people. Ever. Because it is transactional. Both he and his surrogates profit from this arrangement.

#BernieSanders part 1
1.Some of the media are in the tank for @BernieSanders has have been for years, two prime examples is Chris Hayes and Chuck Todd.
Todd´s wife's firm got millions from @BernieSanders 2016 campaign

newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/tim-g…
@BernieSanders 2.Todd´s wife also donated 2 million to @BernieSanders PAC in 2016, in exchange for what it looks like unprecedented air time on his show.

And don't reply he doesn't have PAC´s he had, and he HAS in 2020.

When I “officially” endorsed #Bernie2020, the campaign asked for a “short” statement for a graphic.

I'm wordy; wrote a whole page. Oops.🤓

It’s hard to distill why I believe so strongly in this #BigUS movement & @BernieSanders, but I’d like to share my attempt.

A thread...
(1)
@BernieSanders The part of my statement that made it on the #BernieSanders graphic boils down to one word:

TRUST

Bernie’s stances are grounded in principled judgment, proven to be right & just for decades. His policies prove to be successful when enacted. I know who he'll be once elected.
(2)
@BernieSanders My passion & purpose is #PublicEducation, so my endorsement is also rooted in that.

#Bernie’s full platform - from #MedicareForAll to #CriminalJusticeReform - will have profound positive impacts on students, communities, and the ed profession, in both direct & indirect ways.

THREAD comparing 2 different Democratic candidates in 2015-16 v. 2019-20. It doesn't matter what you think of either candidate, whether you support or oppose one of them or both of them. 1/
It was around this time in 2015-the yr before the 2016 election-that we saw the introduction of the “#BernieSanders can't appeal to black voters” narrative; we were told his supporters are all white “Berniebros” /2
Countless articles, blogs & social media posts fixated on looking for nonwhite people at Bernie's rallies. I read 2 pieces by @JoanWalsh in @Salon in Aug of that yr. Walsh initiated this narrative & was the principal peddler of what is now an easily disproven cliché. /3

MY TASTE OF BERNIE HATE

I haven't endorsed #Bernie. I haven't attacked Hillary. I've built bridges to fellow progressives and called for better Dem leadership.

In response, a small group of online Hillary voters has maligned me with the same venom Bernie defenders did in 2016.
MY TASTE OF BERNIE HATE (2)

This small group of online Hillary voters, whose mantra in 2016 was "Bernie bros are toxic, sexist, malignant haters," are using the identical language against me that they said Bernie defenders used against them. Vicious, personal, and ugly.
MY TASTE OF BERNIE HATE (3)

When Hillary voters were trolled and harassed, I confronted their attackers. And when many Bernie defenders said they, too, faced online attacks and felt marginalized and maligned, I dismissed them. I genuinely believed THEY were the aggressors.

PROJECTING THE ISLAMIC NARRATIVES.

Unarguably, Islam is one of the fastest growing religions of the world, with over 1.8 billion adherents, according to Wikipedia statistics. It is a religion which preaches peace, sanity, humanness and goodness to all, no matter the differences.
This religion, notwithstanding its genuine nature and its message of peace, is seen as a threat. Since ages, the undiluted truth that Islam carries has always been a torn pricking the preachers of falsehood and taunting them each time they see an element of Islam in anyone or
anything. This brought about the enemies of Islam dragging Islam into the middle of controversies, but their plots has never for once prevailed, because Islam is not a controversial religion. The light of Islam can never be extinguished.

In seeing to the prevalence of Islam over
