1/ If you’re surprised that extremists stormed the Capitol, don’t be.

These domestic terrorists & their enablers within GOP & conservative media have fomented dangerous & racist conspiracy theories about “their country” being taken away from “them” FOR YEARS. Here’s how.
2/ Organizations like @NRA & Republican lawmakers ACTIVELY encourage followers to go out and purchase firearms to protect themselves from "tyrannical government." Some lawmakers directly advocated for a militant coup. Here’s how @NRA does it:
@NRA 3/ In 2008, the election of our first black president only accelerated the hate, racism and division.

Republican lawmakers immediately adopted a tactic of delegitimizing Obama and his policies (even if they had agreed with those policies in years past).

Hours after a mob stormed the Capitol radicalized by false claims about the election being stolen, @foxnews just had someone on air who:

1. blamed the violence on "bad apples" who were inspired by "antifa & the left"

2. regurgitated the lies about the election being stolen
@FoxNews Fox has now moved on to having someone else on explaining that the mob is rightfully frustrated because the media has lied to them and perpetrated "the Russia hoax"
@FoxNews "When people can't trust the media, then yes, things like this will be the result," Sarah Palin tells @foxnews before claiming that the violence at the Capitol was probably instigated by antifa.

(Not kidding)

1/ I'm starting a thread of all of the Republicans who humored Trump after his loss, spread lies and misinformation about the election and created a permission structure for these domestic terrorists to cause chaos.

Pls help me add to the list here: forms.gle/eq3SAEqGtCixMy…

1/ Last night’s election in GA underscores that voters are demanding federal action to build safer communities with fewer guns.

@NRA poured millions in outside spending into the runoff, but voters rejected their “guns everywhere” agenda
@NRA 2/ GA voters rejected two "guns everywhere" GA senate candidates after a year in which gun sales spiked and our nation experienced a significant increase in gun deaths.

In 2020, Atlanta’s homicide count rose to the highest levels since 1998.
@NRA 3/ Biden & Harris ran the most ambitious agenda for reducing gun deaths in history & received most votes ever cast for a presidential ticket

Yesterday’s election results in GA demonstrate that the new admin must take *proactive action to build safer communities on day 1*

1/ Trump's claims of election fraud risk sparking political violence.

Case-in-point: Trump supporter was arrested on Tuesday after calling for crowds of New Yorkers to be gunned down in the streets while celebrating the election results gothamist.com/news/feds-heav…
2/ Brian Maiorana was arrested in Annadale, Staten Island on Tuesday morning. Federal agents who searched his home recovered:

- a semiautomatic pistol
- the upper portion of an AR 15 assault rifle
- several rounds of ammunition
3/ In a November 5th message, Maiorana allegedly posted: “The carnage needs to come in the form of extermination of anyone that claims to be democrat…as well as their family members.”

Three days later, he allegedly suggested "we blow up the FBI building for real"

1/ Florida's @GovRonDeSantis has drafted legislation that would, in effect, empower armed white vigilantes to kill black people. 

DeSantis wants to *expand* FL's Stand Your Ground law to allow armed citizens to shoot anyone engaged in “criminal mischief” that disrupts business
@GovRonDeSantis 2/ @GovRonDeSantis' proposal would even offer immunity to drivers *who claim to have unintentionally killed or injured protesters who block traffic* miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
@GovRonDeSantis 3/ Stand Your Ground laws -in place in 27 states- have *consistently been invoked as a defense for killing Black people.*

3 best known examples: 

Trayvon Martin
Jordan Davis
Ahmaud Arbery

~30 ppl die EACH MONTH in a SYG-related incident in states with these laws enacted
