Dems know that an America where many win is a stronger nation than one where very few win. We know that wealth is built where infrastructure is strong & a social contact means giving back. Learn about candidate's ideas to create more winners & less disparity in this thread #WPCM
We've had a few winners and many losers in this “game” of economic well-being. #WCPM #DemCast #wealthgap

America's top 1% own more wealth than the bottom 1/2. When we consider the magnitude of the problems we face from schools, road & bridge repair, migrating from fossil fuels & climate change, it is unconscionable that so few hold so much, avoiding taxes & responsibility. #DemCast

A ten point plan makes up @JoeBiden’s plan to strengthen the middle class and undo tax code favoritism toward the wealthiest.

It appears that Tulsi has not fleshed out a tax plan to solve the problem of income disparity. #wealthgap

@MichaelBennet sees the solution to income disparity through the long vision of education. I definitely agree that this is an important and generally overlooked aspect. #wealthgap

Franklin Graham is in a dither over JLo & gets unmercifully ratioed for his hypocrisy in the comments 😂

Of course he’s only crying crocodile tears to create talking points for Fox. He knows Fox viewers won’t hear the #RestOfTheStory They are cut off from context.

Franklin Graham’s tweet makes it obvious that this is a performance.

Fox has effectively isolated a swath of Americans from the #RestOfTheStory.

Fox viewers won’t ever hear the reminders of Melania’s nude photos or any of the rest of the ratio. 🙄

Fox reports are true only 17% of the time, but it’s false, mostly false or Pants-on-Fire 55% of the time (Politifact). Because Fox viewers never get the #RestOfTheStory they lack context to judge what’s fact.

The impeachment counsel & GOP senators relied on that.

Threaded are tweets that explore which presidential candidates "get" the many facets of social justice. Underlying bigotry shapes the policies they'll create, and affect the projects that'll get funded. Bigotry affects us all but harms those most vulnerable

Foreign Policy is this week’s topic for the Presidential Candidate Moment. While foreign policy is a national not party concern, it is helpful to know both where the candidates stand and how that comports with the Democratic Party Platform.
This thread is always a group effort😙

So, I ran across a retweet of the below tweet and it immediately raised flags. Puffing up a witness has a reason, so decided to go look for the documentation behind it, since it had a direct quote. Didn't take long - few minutes and NPR coughed it up (will link at the end)./1
About puffing someone up - the reason is to try to give the person credibility, their views more weight than they should be given, and to set them above someone they are in disagreement with. In this case, also to elicit support due to his medal./2
In the case of the tweet, it is immediately followed by the statement "speaking out against the command-in-chief." (you're suppose to gasp here I think)

Then "the reason" is given - people kept telling him he needed to speak up (be sure to ignore other possible reasons)./3

#America is engaged in a new kind of #CivilWar. Though it's not so civil, we find very little common ground. Like most modern wars, ours is unconventional. Battle lines drawn along political ideology. Weapons of mass disinformation foment chaos & division.
Our guidons are of #memetic design.Trending #hashtags have become our battle cries. Daily skirmishes swell from #anonymous avatars, sock puppets, bots, & trolls. We've taken #humanity out of the fight—leaving only the worst of us to face-off.
Abstract as they may seem, these plans are strategically devised & implemented by internal & external entities. Opposing enemies stealthily infiltrate our groups to role play & subtly nudge the less informed in any desirable direction. Exploiting our fracture points.

Earlier today a news item went viral, claiming that the sacked head of TETFUND accused the Minister of Education of demanding bribes from him. Turns out it’s FAKE news. @PremiumTimesng has issued a correction. Apparently an interview made in Hausa was MISTRANSLATED & MISREPORTED
Here’s where one has to respect @PremiumTimesng - they’re one of VERY FEW Nigerian online media orgs that make ANY effort to acknowledge wrong, & publish corrective ‘Editors Notes’. Most just carry on as if publishing & NOT retracting fake news is their constitutional right.
Dear @PremiumTimesng - kindly try and give the correct story as much visibility as the fake one got, thanks. That’s the least you can do.

I’m interested in how #Infrastructure transforms places. The village of Ore (“a collection of motley huts”) ’blew’ because someone decided, in the 1970s or so, that the new major Highway linking Lagos/Ibadan to Benin would pass through it. (The Old Road passed elsewhere)
The Old Road to Benin: Ibadan-Ife-Ilesha-Akure-Owo-Agbanikaka-Benin.

Then a new one was built: Sagamu-Ore-Ofosu-Benin Expressway.

That’s how Ore landed the chance to become a Transport and Commerce hub.

Time and Chance. But #Infrastructure made it possible.
In my traveling around Nigeria following ongoing Infrastructure projects - I can’t help imagining just how much things will change in the years ahead. Nigeria’s landscape will be redrawn in fascinating ways. New hubs will ‘blow’, new habits will follow new infrastructure.
