💥NEW: US Sanctions Serious Human Rights Abusers in Russia, including Chechnya's Ramzan Kadyrov & paramilitary Kadyrovtsy, implicated in the assassination of Boris Nemtsov & killings, abductions of LGBT activists & journalists home.treasury.gov/news/press-rel… #HumanRightsDay #MagnitskyAct
Today's new US #MagnitskyAct #sanctions on Kadyrov & paramilitary Kadyrovtsy also designate 6 companies registered in #Russia that "continue to provide Kadyrov pride and significant profit" and 5 individuals prominent in Kadyrov's network. #HumanRights #HumanRightsDay
So hard to read this as Trump+GOP damage democracy & society: "Human rights abuse & corruption undermine the values that form an essential foundation of stable, secure, & functioning societies…weaken democratic institutions; degrade the rule of law; perpetuate violent conflicts"
Chechnya's Ramzan Kadyrov on new #MagnitskyAct #sanctions imposing asset freezes & travel ban: Inclusion on Magnitsky List is a "New Year's gift." I wouldn't go to the US, even if "promised all the country's foreign exchange reserves as a prize." via @bbcrussian #HumanRightsDay

Repubs are plotting a coup in plain sight. Barr's getting DOJ to probe "irregularities" which don't exist. He met w/ McConnell today. Now every GOP is spewing "legal/illegal" vote nonsense. Trump said there'd be no transition & meant it. He & GOP are blocking Biden's transition!
Barr’s direction upends DOJ rule saying prosecutors should NOT launch voter fraud investigations until after election results are certified. That guidance was designed to ensure that voters & state & local election officials—NOT the federal government—decide the election results.
“The best case scenario is that Barr did this to appease Trump and add credibility to his allegations of voter fraud…The worst case scenario is that DOJ is planning to intervene in some way and try to throw the election to the president.”—@matthewamiller washingtonpost.com/national-secur…

NYPost bosses pressed staff to add their bylines to the sketchy Hunter Biden story. They refused. More red flags uncovered in the latest laundering of Russian disinformation that Repubs have been trying to make a thing since Biden became the Dem nominee. nytimes.com/2020/10/18/bus…
NYPost's own staff questioned whether the paper had verified the authenticity of the hard drive contents. Staff also questioned the reliability of the sources—Bannon & Giuliani—& the timing. Rudy even admits nobody else would publish it w/o more scrutiny! It's disinformation ffs!
The staff reporter who wrote NYPost's front-page Hunter Biden story refused to put his name on it. Who refuses a byline on a front page story and lets a newbie fmr Foxnewsie take credit? Someone who knows the diff between journalism & disinformation to interfere in an election.

#MAGAMussolini death cult gathers for rally at the White House (where it’s illegal to hold campaign events)

Propagandist-in-Chief needs a photo-op to lift his infected spirits & spread more propaganda, demagoguery & virus. #InfectedTrump #VoteHimOut #VoteBlueToSaveAmerica #Vote
🧵The Hatch Act isn't a minor law. It's fundamental. It keeps those in power from ABUSING it.

In a free & open democracy, the govt doesn't use govt resources to keep itself in power.

Complicit GOP has normalized abuse of power. To restore & fix democracy #VoteGOPOut everywhere!
🤯Icing on Trump's💩sandwich: Black people—who die disproportionately of COVID—were PROPS for his balcony spectacle—invited to WH superspreader rally a week after superspreader infected dozens, incl him! A few 100 Blexit fans came—gimmick of right-wing propagandist Candace Owens.

🚨‼️FBI thwarts coup plot to violently overthrow the government and kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer by right-wing militia.

And Republicans have the audacity to gaslight that Trump hasn't been America's chief domestic terrorist inciter & sympathizer.
🚨FBI: Militia plotted TERRORIST ACTS against Michigan police, plotted to kidnap Michigan governor, to violently overthrow the government, and incite a civil war. 7 members of "Wolverine Watchmen" militia charged in the conspiracy.

#DomesticTerrorism #RightWingTerrorism
Fmr FBI McCabe: The person MOST responsible for fomenting this sort of violence is the US president. Trump's daily berating the democratic process, claiming election is rigged & replete w/ fraud—all false—is exactly the rhetoric that triggers violent extremists to take action.

So Brad Parscale, hospitalized for “self harm,” may also be a gun obsessed wife beater?? Shocker. The Trump train’s been lurching head 1st toward murder-suicide pact from the day they let the Kremlin get on board. The only question is who bleeds out first—America or the traitors?
Is this what happens to the Trump cult when they finally realize their leader really is a conman & traitor like everyone says? Ex-Trump Campaign Manager Brad Parscale Was Intoxicated, Aggressive, And Refused To Cooperate While Threatening To Harm Himself buzzfeednews.com/article/tasnee…
Parscale, one of Trump’s “Best People,” turns out to be one of the worst people >> “Candice admitted Brad had physically assaulted her in the past but did not appear to file a domestic-violence report.” trib.al/ZRZYQQf

Trump crime spree continues, with Barr his chief executioner: Y’day Bolton said Trump is Putin’s useful idiot. Today DOJ opens a criminal investigation into Bolton.

Authoritarians abuse state power to harass, intimidate & retaliate against their critics. #EndTheNightmare #VOTE
Federal prosecutors issued grand jury subpoenas to former national security adviser John Bolton’s book publisher @simonschuster and literary agent on Monday, launching a criminal investigation into whether Bolton mishandled classified information. wsj.com/articles/grand…
@simonschuster "Lawyers for the National Security Council and the Justice Department expressed reservations about opening a criminal case, in part because Mr. Trump’s public statements made it seem like an overtly political act"
