🧵 This is @ChapmanU Professor John Eastman speaking at #CapitolRiots pre-rally. John used his speaking time to further Trump campaign lies about voter fraud. Chapman U has no plans to hold Eastman accountable for his actions. 1/10

Video here: Image
Eastman is the same guy who met with President Trump & VP Pence in the White House to try to execute yet another scheme to subvert the will of the majority of American voters. 2/ Image
Pence refused to go along with Eastman's plot. #CapitolRioters erected a gallow on Capitol grounds & chanted "Hang Mike Pence." @ChapmanU does nothing. 3/ Image
Eastman is the same guy who wrote an op-ed questioning VP-Elect Kamala Harris's eligibility for for Vice President. @ChapmanU did nothing then either. #birther 4/

Why does @ChapmanU do nothing? Chapman's President has released a statement hiding behind the Faculty Manual, claiming it provides him with no route to discipline Eastman. 5/

@ChapmanU President's statement, however, obfuscates the truth - that the university has many avenues through which to pursue discipline & termination. The University is CHOOSING not to do so in this case. Why? 6/ Image
@kjminzner's thread about @ChapmanU's history of inaction in the face of disturbing incidents is instructive. Are Chapman's conservative donors pressuring the University to not hold Eastman accountable for his efforts to incite an insurrection? 7/

If you're a Chapman alumni like I am, head over here to add your name to this petition demanding accountability for Eastman's actions.

By the way, did I mention Eastman is a prominent member of the Federalist Society? He's the Chairman of the Federalist Society's Federalism & Separation of Powers practice group. END

I’m at the AZ Senate & I’ll be live tweeting the vote on 2 of @MichelleUgenti’s voter suppression bills - #SB1046 & #SB1072. Your Senator has their laptop on the floor so keep emailing & @ them on social & ask them to vote NO. #VotingMattersAZ #ThingsThatMatterAZ
Peruse this thread for a brief overview of the 2 bills at issue here.
Thank you to @SenQuezada29 for using his point of personal privilege to recognize us defenders of democracy. #VotingMattersAZ

I'll be live tweeting today's #AZLeg Judiciary Committee hearing where another @MichelleUgenti voter suppression bill will be heard. #SB1090 seems to be in retaliation to Maricopa County Recorder's decision to open Emergency Voting Centers the weekend before Election Day 2018. /1
You see, AZ has about a month of early voting. But, strangely, polling places are closed the weekend prior to Election Day. And, in fact, state Senators PASSED a bill just last session to allow for in person voting through & including the weekend prior to Election Day. /2
The state House, for whatever reason, decided the bi-partisan bill passed by the Senate wasn't worth their time so never took it up. Every County Recorder in the state supported the Senate passed bill. /3 #ThingsThatMatterAZ

Name one standard hygiene item you expect to always have access to. Mine would be toilet paper. Apparently, the AZ Dept of Corrections doesn’t agree as they have neglected to make toilet paper readily accessible to their female inmates. #LetItRoll THREAD
Remember a few months ago when @AthenaSalman sponsored a bill to allocate funds annually to ADC so that all women in state prisons have access to free, unlimited, feminine hygiene products? And remember how Rep Shope blocked it from moving forward? /1
ADC /2is continuing on with its theme of not treating women with dignity & respect. When asked about the toilet paper shortage, ADC trotted out a similar trope, “It’s not us; it’s them.” They said the same thing when Rep. Salman questioned their feminine hygiene product policy.

While we were watching the horror of the #ParklandShooting unfold, #AZLeg House Judiciary Comm's GOP members passed HB2535, @kevinpayneLD21's bill that'd PROHIBIT all child welfare agencies from adopting or enforcing any rule or policy related to possession or storage of a gun.
In the same breath, Rep. Payne declares that the AZ Department of Child Safety's "primary purpose is to protect children" and that DCS should not maintain the ability to protect children from firearms. These seem like ideas completely at odds w each other, no?
Because we know that, during the first six months of 2017, for example, minors died from accidental shootings at a pace of one every other day, with the majority of the shootings occurring in the home. usatoday.com/story/news/201…

Last week, Rep Jay Lawrence complained about having to👂to testimony about "pads & tampons & the problems of periods" for incarcerated women. This week, Rep TJ Shope refuses to give #HB2222 a hearing. Now what? Now, we make our voices heard. #LetItFlow THREAD
So, what's HB2222 all about? Currently, incarcerated women in AZ get 12 free pads each month. They must ask an officer if they need more. If they want tampons, they must buy them. To afford to purchase a box of tampons, a woman has to work up to 27 hours at $.15 per hour. /2
However, if blood stains a prisoner's pants, she is given a ticket for being out of dress code, which could result in her losing the ability to purchase store items, such as tampons and pads. /3
