A thread on our @OpenMindTV episode w/@ProjectLincoln founder @jwgop.

In short, the coalition of the decent is battling a cult of treasonous bigots in 2020. We the Decent will win.

(You can watch here: thirteen.org/openmind/publi…)
I ask John: @ProjectLincoln spots have lasered in on the immorality, negligence, and corruption of this administration, but do you fear that the American people are desensitized to the traffic of malfeasance?
How most effectively can @ProjectLincoln and @JoeBiden counterpunch the cyber espionage, bots, and trolls this fall?
What more illicit and dirty tricks from Confederate Barr will be unleashed?
Can digital incumbency and Trump/Zuckerberg's Axis of Evil be overcome?
Finally, a suggestion (probably already in the works)...we need @ProjectLincoln Seminars and War Room in preparation for and during the Presidential Debates, with @jwgop, @madrid_mike, @TheRickWilson, @SteveSchmidtSES, and @gtconway3d.

This is Biden’s golden opportunity to de-program Trump sympathizers. My latest for @Independent...follow this thread or read here: independent.co.uk/voices/biden-c…
The most defining — and rejuvenating — characteristic of the new commander-in-chief is his extraordinary empathy. That’s because the 46th president really does feel your and our collective pain as a country — no gimmicks or shrills attached.
But Biden’s genuine tenderness and call for personal responsibility aren’t enough. We’re speeding toward the greatest humanitarian conflagration in United States history.

I want to reflect on how societally we can reduce the disinformation-terrorist nexus after publishing today’s new pod w/@QanonAnonymous. (Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/2hQidT….) The first and most important order of business to deradicalize was done by social media days ago.
Moreover, law enforcement and politicians woke up. Trump/GOP and QAnon social rhetoric have, for years, posed an existential threat to civil society. In recent months, they converged in virtually identical criminal incitement and terrorism, which should be punished.
Now let’s talk about empathetic intervention on a human level. Deradicalizing is about “smiles and cries” (H/T, Training Day, 2001). In my own words, it’s about aspirations and resentments. It’s about understanding the source of people’s convictions & how they arrive at them.

THREAD-ED (1/20)

She’s a Justice for now, but we can impeach Amy Coney Barrett if she tries to stop a fair election—and then add a 10th Justice.

Read @Independent fully: independent.co.uk/voices/amy-con….
If Barrett rules against the rights of voters in these days leading up to or during vote-counting — refusing to recuse herself from decisions that amount to a quid pro quo for Trump’s re-election — Dems need to impeach. (2)
By overruling the PA Supreme Court and interfering in the state’s electoral practices, Barrett’s rank duplicity will be unmistakable — as will the fraud of her purported conviction in federalism and states’ rights. (3)

At the debate next week, expect Chris Wallace to ask Biden why he should get to fill the Supreme Court seat. Biden should direct his answer to Trump...
“The majority of the American people simply don’t support you. You didn’t win the popular vote last time, and you’re not going to win it, or the Electoral College, this time. The people deserve a court that represents them, not your extremism and division.”
The hypocrisy argument from Democrats is worn and doesn’t come from a position of strength. Biden can start there but needs to go further.

1) It’s not court packing, Democrats. Do NOT accept the premise. It’s representative democracy. The court should look like the people. Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and the new nominee are the anti-democratic packing—packing that subverts the will of the people.
2) @SenSchumer needs to show some testicular fortitude. We all know it should be Duckworth or Murphy or Schatz as the Democratic leader. Starting today, the line is: If his illegitimate nominee is confirmed, @JoeBiden and D Senate will expand to the Court to represent the people.
3) It’s the pandemic, stupid. 200K+ of our brothers and sisters are dead because of Trump’s homicidal negligence. That doesn’t have any less relevance now. The argument for @JoeBiden to choose the next Justice is connected. We need his judgment.

Trump is not fleeting bizarreness but fundamentally unmaking America. “I alone can fix it” turned out to be he, with GOP collaborators, could kill it, dividing and literally plaguing us into our current misery. Read @thedailybeast my latest: thedailybeast.com/trumps-weird-s…
Donald Trump’s acceptance speech Thursday night, a deranged Fidel Castro parody of maniacal gaslighting proportions, could not be mistaken for an American president’s.
In his bizarro unreality, 180,000 dead and rising is public health. Divisive hate mongering is law and order. Historic unemployment and inequity is strength. Police brutality is a race war. Protests for civil rights are anarchy.
