THREAD: When things look hopeless, look to the helpers. Check out @Every_District, a grassroots group working hard to turn state governments blue. Here are the local races in key states to donate to, helping build a more progressive union state by state.
Turn Texas blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats need to flip 9 seats to take the Texas House majority. EveryDistrict endorsed 10 candidates running to flip districts blue. 100% of what you give goes directly to the candidates. everydistrict.us/map/texas-hous…
Turn Wisconsin blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats can flip the Wisconsin House this year. 100% of what you give will go directly to EveryDistrict’s endorsed candidates. everydistrict.us/map/wisconsin-…
Turn Pennsylvania blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats need to flip nine seats to take control of the PA House. 100% of what you give will go directly to candidates in Pennsylvania on the frontlines of turning the state government blue: everydistrict.us/map/pennsylvan…
Seriously, turn Pennsylvania blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats need to flip four seats to tie the PA Senate, where a Democratic Lieutenant Governor would cast a tie-breaking vote. Support 4 competitive races to help flip them from red to blue: everydistrict.us/map/pennsylvan…
Turn Michigan blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats need to flip four seats to take control of the Michigan House, and they are in a strong position to do so. 100% of what you give will go directly to key state races in Michigan: everydistrict.us/map/michigan-h…
Turn Arizona blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats need to flip two seats to take control of the Arizona House. 100% of what you give will go directly to flippable districts in Arizona: everydistrict.us/map/arizona-ho…
Seriously, we can turn Arizona blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats need to flip three seats to take control of the Arizona Senate. 100% of what you give will go directly to key state races: everydistrict.us/map/arizona-se…
Turn North Carolina blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats need to flip five seats to gain the majority of the NC Senate. 100% of what you give will go directly to flippable state races: everydistrict.us/north-carolina…
Turn Florida blue! According to @Every_District: Republicans control the Florida State House 73-47. Democrats need to flip 14 seats to flip the chamber, and they have a narrow path to doing so in 2020. Donate here to help: everydistrict.us/map/florida-ho…
Turn Georgia blue! According to @Every_District: Democrats can grow their numbers in the Georgia legislature in 2020 by flipping 12 competitive seats. Help by donating here: everydistrict.us/map/georgia-ho…

Digging into Speaker Johnson--a staunch evangelical, and the other MAGA Christian nationalists blocking aid to Ukraine in the House, I discovered that Ukraine plays a role in their demented "end times" world view 🧵
Mike Johnson is a staunch evangelical. He was featured in a German documentary on taking his daughter to a purity ball where she signed a pledge to never have sex before marriage. Purity balls are seen as dehumanizing to young girls and women abcnews.go.com/US/speaker-mik…
Mike Johnson explained that his worldview is the bible. Evangelicals take the bible as fact, including creationism (the Earth was created by God in 6 days) and the end times prophecies Image

What's life like in Orban's Hungary, the most corrupt country in the EU? Miserable, especially if you're a child (high malnutrition rates), a young adult, a woman, LGBTQ+ person and ally, a refugee, and anyone with an open mind🧵
According to a recent study, Hungary is the most corrupt country in the EU, a trend that accelerated under Orban politico.eu/article/hungar…
Transparency International: "The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) is the most widely used global corruption ranking in the world. It measures how corrupt each country’s public sector is perceived to be, according to experts." Let's look at Hungary's CPI. transparency.org/en/news/how-cp…

Remember this shocking story from the 2016 election? The Trump campaign gutted Ukraine aid in the official RNC platform. Today this is mainstream for the GOP, with McConnell folding on Ukraine aid. This is catastrophic for the US and the world🧵 npr.org/2017/12/04/568…
The recent transformation of the GOP into the Party of Putin began gradually, with only a few in Congress, like former Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, who the Kremlin considered an asset, according to the FBI nytimes.com/2017/11/21/us/…
In 2018, current House Speaker Mike Johnson took tens of thousands of dollars in dark money campaign donations linked to a Russian oligarch close to Putin who was part of the larger Kremlin operation exposed in the Mueller Report newsweek.com/house-speaker-…

We need to talk about the Reagan Revolution. In many ways, we're still living in it, with wealth inequality worse than in the Gilded Age and elite criminal impunity🧵 Image
According to French economist Gabriel Zucman, who studied under Thomas Piketty, author of the bestselling book “Capital in the Twenty-First Century,” the 1% in America hold more wealth than the Carnegies and Fricks of the Gilded Age finance.yahoo.com/news/super-ric…
The Reagan Revolution (greed is good, deregulation, tax cuts for the wealthy, cuts of social services/war on the poor) began with the Powell Memo in 1971, a blueprint for the rise of today's far-right corporate capture of our courts and government billmoyers.com/content/the-po…

Let's look at a Russian-linked financial backer of George Santos. Did they get their money’s worth with George Santos in Congress? The answer is yes. 🧵 Image
It starts with Viktor Vekselberg, a notorious sanctioned "Putin's wallet", otherwise known as the Russian oligarchs tasked by the Kremlin to spread Russian influence (corruption) by making major investments and donations in democratic countries cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/n…
Vekselberg had the assignment of building a Russian Silicon Valley. He made deals with Silicon Valley companies like Cisco and leading tech institutions like MIT, setting off a warning from the FBI in Boston, a major tech innovation hub especially for defense
