Sen. @EWarren, 12/19/2019: "I do not sell access to my time. I don't do call time with millionaires and billionaires. I don't meet behind closed doors with big-dollar donors."

@NYTimes, today: "Elizabeth Warren to Hold Big-Dollar Fund-Raiser for Biden"

"Billionaires in wine caves should not pick the next President of the United States" -- Sen. @EWarren, righteously and inspirationally chiding @PeteButtigieg for meeting with "rich people in smoke-filled rooms."

Maybe she meant it's OK if it's in Zoom cave and not a wine cave?
Anyway..... #PersistPAC

The savvy chuckles from TV personalities at the end of the clip provide the big payoff:

EXCLUSIVE: Hidden video and whistleblower reveal gruesome mass-extermination method for Iowa pigs amid pandemic interc.pt/2XcUIG7
The 4-minute video we produced on the use by Iowa's largest pork producer, @IowaSelect, of a gruesome mass-extermination process that causes sustained, extreme agony for pigs as they die. From hidden cameras & an investigation by the heroic @DxEverywhere:

The horrors of industrial agriculture and factory farms is so extreme that no matter how much you report on it, it's traumatizing. Society owes huge gratitude to the brave @DxEverywhere activists who risk their liberty to expose these atrocities. Spectacular video by @lwoodhouse.

Hard to overstate the political instability and rapidly growing threat to democracy right now in Brazil. It's virtually a universal consensus the country is headed to a ugly breaking point: open talk about use of force to resolve Bolsonaro's conflicts with the courts/Congress...
The real objective of the Bolsonaro movement has become clear over the last 6 months if not earlier: it *wants* civil disorder and street violence to justify restoration of military-era repressive measures. COVID-19 is barely discussed now even as it worsens. Genuinely dangerous.
As Brazil largely & understandably ignores the pandemic due to the menacing political instability and increasingly proximate threats to its democracy, it again set a new 24-hour record for Covid death - 1,156 - for a total of almost 27,000. Still rising:

Genuinely laughing watching the people who have spent weeks publicly vilifying Tara Reade as an unstable liar adding the disingenuous faux-concern what's motivating them is concern for her well-being:

"What concerns me most is the well-being of that impoverished deranged liar"😢
Her lawyer explicitly says that he #BelievesHer story and is disgusted by the victims-shaming Democratic pundits have been doing to discredit & smear her.

Just because you created a social media bubble doesn't mean that her claims are disproven if enough Democrats proclaim it.
What's "harming #MeToo" is its extremely obvious & cynical weaponization, where - as happened with B. Clinton -the prevailing standards change based on the accused's Party.

Few will tolerate career- and reputation-destroying tactics that are wielded with no consistent standards.
