1/9 In case @ewarren is wondering, here are the reasons I’ve decided to vote for @BernieSanders on Tuesday after supporting her campaign the last several months, both monetarily and through canvassing.
2/9 More than 200 tribal citizens wrote a letter with clear demands to @ewarren regarding her false claims of Cherokee heritage. She fulfilled 2/3 of those demands and wrote a 12-page letter mostly saying, “Hey, look how many people I’ve talked to about tribal issues though!”
3/9 They gave her a prime opportunity to disavow the white, racist myths that seek to erase native people in the U.S. She didn’t take it. It could’ve been an incredible teaching moment, and she pushed it aside.
4/9 More on this from @rebeccanagle and this thread. We should all be standing with tribal citizens and demanding more of @ewarren.
5/9 On a separate note, her Super Pac is simply sad. We should never take this from progressive leaders. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
6/9 Recent attacks on Bernie (including about pacs, which, ironic) have been so disappointing, and rumors that she’s running for Biden’s VP even more so. We do need a progressive who gets things done in the White House, but at this point, we really just need A PROGRESSIVE.
7/9 Bernie has the grassroots machine to get this done. I know it’s only been four states, but Warren could do immense good by uniting progressives behind Bernie now. And he could benefit from her work.
8/9 I loved @ewarren for her plans, her ability to hear criticism and change, and her racial policies, which I still think are superior to Bernie’s more race-blind perspective (let’s keep pushing him to be better!): theroot.com/every-democrat…
But I’m going to vote for @BernieSanders because while Warren’s plans might be thorough, his are more progressive, they seek less compromise, and he’s got the integrity I now know she lacks. Bernie is in this for all of us. #BernieSanders2020
Also, how could I possibly forget: #AbolishICE
Hey now that you’re all here, donate to Bernie (obvs) or to @RAICESTEXAS!! raicestexas.org/ways-to-give/d…
