.@itsa_talia appears to have just been detained by MPD.
She showed her press pass to the officer. It does not seem to have made a difference. Press is not supposed to be included in the curfew.
Kk she's good - no longer being detained.
Poor @itsa_talia ate her whole protein cookie while she thought she was being detained. Help fund her ability to make more cookies to sustain herself while she courageously reports from the ground! paypal.me/taliajane

The Million MAGA March on Nov 14, 2020 was a preview of the collaboration between GOP politicians, conservative groups, and neo-Nazis that we saw again on Jan 6, 2021.

THREAD
howtofightantisemitism.com/timeline/at-mi…
The 11/14 rally was organized by @america1stwomen, w turnout generated by @NickJFuentes & his groypers, Proud Boys, Alex Jones, politicians like @RepMTG. It was the largest gathering of white nationalists, neo-Nazis, militias, and hate groups since UTR in Charlottesville in 2017.
On 1/6, the group came together again for another rally. The site listed organizing groups as @america1stwomen, @ali's Stop the Steal, Rule of Law Defense Fund (led by @AGSteveMarshall), Turning Point Action (led by @charliekirk11), Tea Party Patriots, etc alreporter.com/2021/01/07/ala…

IDK if most people get how much alignment & connection there is between the Nazis who broke into the Capitol yesterday, and elected officials & political figures in the @GOP.

The Nazis are out of the Capitol. Their enablers & allies still hold political & government power.
Take Darren Beattie. Beattie currently serves on a @WhiteHouse committee, in a position that technically continues beyond Trump’s presidency. Beattie is a former @RepMattGaetz staffer. Here he is cheering on the Nazis — sorry, I mean “patriots.” ImageImage
White House appointee & former @RepMattGaetz staffer Darren Beattie is a white supremacist. While Nazis were storming the Capitol, Darren was telling Black people to “take a knee to MAGA” and “learn their proper place in society.” ImageImageImageImage

I’ve spent the past 18+ months tracking GOP ties to white nationalists. We all saw the pic of @KLoeffler with neo-Nazi #ChesterDoles. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg in Georgia alone.

Thread ⬇️
American Patriots USA is a white supremacist group founded & led by neo-Nazi #ChesterDoles. To date, #APUSA members have been photographed with at least three U.S. Senators, two members of U.S. Congress — one outgoing and one incoming — and two Georgia State Representatives.
Here’s the now-infamous photo of #APUSA leader #ChesterDoles, a neo-Nazi and former KKK leader, with @KLoeffler, taken on Dec 11, 2020: Image

This is...so bad. The bizarre jump cuts that zoom in & out on his face, the emphasis on looting more than police brutality, the “bad apples” argument, that he starts by saying he agrees with the recommendations but backtracks at the end to say “some more than others”...
No way @NYCMayor’s “reflection” video was scripted, All the jump cuts indicate he just rambled & had his staff attempt to edit it into a statement. The result: A pointless video attributing NYPD brutality to a few “individuals” & “choices that weren’t good choices, it turns out.”
.@NYCMayor lied about and defended NYPD driving cars into protestors — which we all saw on video — and now would like to say the problem was a looting, a few bad apples, and some strategic choices that “weren’t good choices, it turns out.”

.@RepMattGaetz tried to defend himself from the accusation of antisemitism by saying he's "attacking China," not Jews.

Maybe now is a good time to read about similarities between anti-Jewish & anti-Asian conspiracies, and how the @GOP is currently using them to deflect blame.
.@RepMattGaetz: Whether you're attacking Jews or attacking Chinese people, #JewsAgainstWhiteNationalism are not here for it.

We see what you're doing, and we know all about your white nationalist sympathies:
Anyway here is a good piece from @aaww about "yellow peril" and the centuries-long history of scapegoating of Asian-Americans. People who have studied antisemitism will find some very familiar patterns and imagery here...
