#BidenHarris2020 will have a comprehensive plan to battle #COVID__19. We need a President and Vice President that WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY!
We have a #ClimateCrisis that Donald Trump refuses to even acknowledge.
We have a #RacialJusticeCrisis.
It's the anniversary of Charlottesville with people spewing the same rhetoric of Hitler's nazis.
For @JoeBiden this was a call to action! He knew he couldn't stand by without taking on very-fine-people-on-both-sides Trump anymore.
#BidenHarris2020
Will ask @KamalaHarris to be the last voice in the room when he has an important decision to make.
It's what @JoeBiden told @BarackObama he wanted when agreeing to be his VP.
#BidenHarris2020
Came to know @KamalaHarris via Beau Biden's friendship with her.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beau_Biden
.@KamalaHarris:
Gave credit to all of the women that trailblazed before her that made it possible for her to succeed.
"America is crying out for leadership".
She worked with Beau during the great recession to get $billions back from banks.
Learned how Joe traveled from Wilmington to Washington every day to make breakfast every morning and tuck the kids in every night.
.@KamalaHarris
Family is the most important thing to her. Momala > VP.

Her parents were brought together in the fight for social justice.

She devoted her life to "Equal justice under law".
#KamalaHarrisForThePeople

The people are who Joe and I will fight for every day in the WH.

The case against Trump/Pence is open/shut.
16m out of work.
Kids can't go back to school.
Crises of poverty and hunger (especially POC).
Lives tragically cut short.
"Barack Obama and Joe Biden did their job" referring to ebola.
2 people died.

Trump pushed "miracle" drugs and said it would go away like a miracle.

There's a reason it hit America worse than other advanced nations: Trump's failure to take it seriously from the start. #COVID
Complete chaos on when and how to open schools.
Parents confused about childcare and safety.

Trump is also the reason millions are unemployed after inheriting the longest expansion in history from #ObamaBiden
This election isn't just about defeating Trump/Pence.

It's about building the nation back better.

#ClimateCrisis, supply chain back to America, Build on ACA, #JohnLewisVotingRightsAct.

#CivilRights struggle is why @JoeBiden is in public service, and why he chose 1st Black Wom.
.@KamalaHarris
Whenever she has doubts, she thinks about the American people. You are the heroes of our time. You are the reason the country will come closer to meeting it's great promise.

I’m gonna share my projections in a thread for myself so I can review it in the future:
1- I think Trump indeed has COVID-19. With Hicks being ill this morning, I actually think the conspiracy is how they covered it up today, not that he doesn’t have it.
2- I think he will become symptomatic. The strength of the infection is largely influenced by the amount of virus you breathe in. We don’t know if he got it from Hicks, but it is probable that he was exposed to a significant amount of virus in an enclosed space in the last week.
3- At his age and health, there is probably an 11.5% probability of death. He will have excellent care, so in terms of how sick he gets, it probably comes down to if his immune system beats the rate of how fast the virus multiplies. My guess is he will recover at the WH.

The 1st Amendment to the United States Constitution reads: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

This foundational principle made our nation great for a long time.

#SeparationOfChurchAndState
It was novel at the time and its genius is observed in its benefits:
-Less domestic violence up to and including genocide
-Less likely to war with other countries
-Inclusive to everyone
-Promotes the necessary free thought for a self-governing body

#SeparationOfChurchAndState
Christians have attempted to seize control of our secular government since before its founding. The National Day of Prayer comes from a challenge from Billy Graham in 1952. The conservative Congress acted on in joint resolution, and Truman signed it.

He's pushing to send kids back to school.
50m people would be forced to interact and share air if schools open.
The virus is out of control right now and the effect would be to have huge super-spreader events every day.
You have to control the virus before you can open things.
Getting kids back to school is important.
We all know that and want them back in school.
We don't need to hear about how in-person is better than online, we need to control the virus so we can safely reopen schools.

Started with some hearsay about .5m mail in votes that were incorrect in VA that spawned some garbage about Russia and the USPS not being equipped for it.
Went into additional propaganda about the success of the stock market. Note Trump and Mnuchin are pumping money into the stock market and US debt has been downgraded.
nytimes.com/live/2020/07/3…
Then, hopefully there's not some big national emergency, or more of one, but the conference ended abruptly.
If no disaster, it's a good thing to save us on some propaganda.

Over 42,000 #Veterans have contracted #COVID19 and 2,266 have died.
This immediately turned into a propaganda event targeting the Democratic Party in Congress and Joe Biden.
Now he's claiming that the Democratic Party wants to steal the election.
Suppression and projection.
Dems just want people to be able to vote safely during the pandemic. You know, come up with a plan putting safety first, and executing it. Something Trump has yet to do.

You know what I want for the next 3 months?
PEOPLE IN THE STREETS DEMANDING ACTION.
It's how America works. We can tweet against Trump all we want, but the best way to support Biden and guarantee a Blue Wave is to energize 3 movements:
1-Women
2-People of Color
3-Climate Action
Nothing has been under attack more than #WomensRights since the pussy grabber took office.
I don't know about you, but I think we should have Million Women Marches regularly between now and November because the attacks are disgusting, dehumanizing, and lethal.
George Floyd's murder being caught on video energized a movement. Why stop? We will not know peace as long as we have a racist in our White House.
ICE roundups, kids in cages, Kung Flu, tear gas, wall, the list goes on and on and we should still be protesting.
