#325.) Trump confirmed he has spoken by phone to Putin 7 times since March and has never asked him about him putting bounties on the heads of US soldiers or arming the Taliban. This is dereliction of duty and perjury of oath.
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#326.) Federal authorities under Trump are not just illegally arresting peaceful protesters. They’re making barring them from protesting a condition for their release. This is illegal, tyrannical, and unconstitutional.
#327.) Jared Kushner procured defective test kits from UAE & abandoned his plan to implement a national testing strategy because the virus was mostly affecting blue states. This is beyond incompetence. It’s mass murder.
#328.) Trump’s attempt to add a citizenship question to the census was struck down in court. Now he’s trying to rush it’s delivery so those hit hardest by the pandemic—largely POC—won’t be counted. This is unconstitutional.
#329.) After finally tweeting support for mail-in voting in Florida this morning (following MONTHS of calling it “fraudulent”), Trump is now suing Nevada for expanding mail-in voting. This is unconstitutional and just absurd.
#330.) Trump says Sally Yates committed “the crime of the century!” Yates hasn’t been charged with any crimes. She was fired by Trump for telling him Flynn was communicating w/ the Russian Ambassador & lied about it. Witness intimidation is a felony
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#331.) Trump’s plan to give his convention speech on the south lawn of the WH is against the law as it would be hundreds of Hatch Act violations. Repeatedly committing an offense doesn’t make it any less egregious or illegal.
#332.) Trump is criminally trying to sabotage the Post Office to suppress votes & prevent people from voting by mail in Nov. This is an unconstitutional attack on our democracy & GOP members of Congress have no problem w/ it.
#333.) Trump colluded with Russia to steal the WH; confirmed by Michael Cohen & the @SenateGOP themselves; the group of traitors that acquitted Trump in February without holding a trial. I wonder how they’ll do in November?
#334.) The senate intel report found COLLUSION ON EVERY LEVEL between Russian intelligence officials and the Trump campaign. These assholes have been screaming “witch hunt” and “Russia hoax” for 2 years. They are all traitors
#335.) Trump had Barr meet w/ Murdoch last year to silence @Judgenap who was the only one on @FoxNews constantly calling out Trump’s violations of the law and Constitution. Utterly unconstitutional banana republic level shit.
#336.) Trump, who has been screaming about how Democrats will “rig the election”, told his supporters to vote twice, which is illegal. He told them to commit a felony he claims is unacceptable for democrats to do (we don’t).
#337.) Bob Woodward released tapes showing Trump knew the deadly threat posed by the coronavirus IN MARCH but “wanted to always play it down.” This has cost an incalculable number of American lives. Trump is a mass murderer.
#338.) Trump admitted to Woodward how dangerous and deadly COVID was in April and he STILL pushed to reopen the country ON THE SAME DAY. He deliberately took actions that lead to TENS OF THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN DEATHS.
#339.) Trump is calling his “army of supporters” to interfere in the election as “poll watchers,” a nonexistent thing that invites his most enthusiastic loyal cultists to terrorize polling sites & stop democrats from casting ballots. THIS IS ILLEGAL
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#340.) A judge has ruled that Trump’s USPS policy changes were “an intentional effort to disrupt and challenge the legitimacy” of the 2020 election and “designed to cause voter disenfranchisement.” All changes are blocked.
#341.) As we near 7 MILLION cases and surpass 200,000 DEATHS from COVID-19, Trump said: “It affects virtually nobody.” His lies and denial of science and reality are why this is now the 4th deadliest event in American history
#342.) Trump keeps saying “if he loses the election, it’s rigged.” He always accuses others of what he is doing. He’s setting the stage to contest the results. We must vote blue across the board in incontestably huge numbers.
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#343.) Trump won’t commit to a peaceful transition of power, wants to “get rid of the ballots” to maintain it, & is looking for ways to “bypass a Biden win” by “appointing loyal electors in Republican districts.” 5 ALARM FIRE
#344.) While tax fraud almost seems quaint compared to his other crimes, Trump’s tax returns show that he has paid almost no money in taxes for several years. They also make clear he’s in massive debt. #TrumpIsNotABillionaire
I’ll explain this again just to get ahead of the MAGA outrage at my “lack of civility/tolerance for people with different political beliefs.” If you voted for Trump, you and I do not have “different political beliefs.” We are at opposite ends of the cosmos in terms of character.
If you voted for Trump, you voted for the nullification of my marriage by your corrupt court of illegitimate religious extremists who we all know isn’t done taking a sledgehammer to our fundamental freedoms and most cherished victories for equality and civil rights.
If you voted for Trump, you voted for mass deportations, which will destroy the nation; crater the economy; tear apart MILLIONS of families. I cannot be friends with someone who supports something so needless, racist, inhumane, unconstitutional, and un-American.
Here’s a Substack piece I wrote last September about how much the Republican Party DESPISES our nation’s military. And no one in the party has more contempt for the members of our armed forces than Donald Trump himself
They don’t refuse to admit it because they believe it’s true. They do it because fascists always try to create a world where there is no truth
So that people say “Well, Democrats and pundits say the election wasn’t stolen. But Republicans say that it was. I guess we can never truly know for sure one way or the other.”
Except THAT’S BULLSHIT. The 2020 election was NOT STOLEN. Trump LOST. And TRUTH MATTERS in a DEMOCRACY
One of the things that Jack Smith revealed in his most recent 165-page filing exposing the lengths that Trump went to to cling to power after losing in 2020 was that Trump said to family members:
“It doesn’t matter if you win or lose an election. What matters is that you fight.”
Since @BillOReilly took it upon himself to claim that @KamalaHarris “may be the most unprepared presidential candidate in history,” let’s take a look at her qualifications. [Spoiler alert: She is among the *most* prepared/qualified candidates in modern U.S. history] (THREAD)
Before her selection as Biden’s vice presidential candidate, Harris was the San Francisco District Attorney, the CA Attorney General, and a U.S. senator. All of these were elected positions to which she made history as the being the first female/mixed race person to hold them.
In the Senate, Harris was a member of the Judiciary, Intelligence and Homeland Security committees, all of which are highly prominent assignments. She served with honor and poise on each of these committees, where she was an articulate and powerful voice for equality and justice.
Vance and Trump have both repeatedly lied about Trump “salvaging/saving the Affordable Care Act.” Vance told this lie at least half a dozen times tonight. So let’s correct the record on Trump and Obamacare (the ACA) right now so there is no more confusion (Thread).
As president, Trump fought relentlessly to repeal the ACA using executive action, legislation and lawsuits. “Trump was not successful in undoing the ACA, but it was not for lack of trying,” said Larry Levitt, executive VP for health policy at KFF, a nonpartisan research group.
“Trump encouraged congressional efforts to repeal and replace the ACA, and then took administrative steps to try to weaken it when the legislative route failed,” he continued.
