1. Unless there are more than 10 House Rs & the GOP's "Cancel Culture" fails to drive @Liz_Cheney from her leadership post there won't be a GOP Civil War.

We NEED one.

That's why I'm putting pressure on every single org, entity, outlet, that can come to assist the GOP 10

2. (House) impeachment voters & the few in the senate right now that are willing to stand up for democracy. We need to help them learn to define their votes as "pro-democracy"- the alt is the end of democracy. We need to make clear that the so-called "stop the steal" movement was

3. a LIE designed to hide Trump's effort to literally end democratic elections in America. But these people can not do it alone. They need every group they can get behind them. And if others see them supported, more will join them. 10 is not enough. It may be too late for the

4. impeachment vote, but our goal should be to get the majority of elected Republicans to abandon the lie that the election was "stolen from Trump" bc if that lie is allowed to fester, our country is DOOMED. So if you are reading this tweet & have power in your position either in

5. media, as the leader of a interest group, political advocacy group, public interest group, ANY group that works in politics- we CANNOT HAVE A HEALTHY DEMOCRACY IF THE MAJORITY OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS PUSHING THE STOLEN ELECTION LIE. Each of us, in our own roles, big & small

6. must do all that we can to urge every Republican we can personally reach to renounce the "stop the steal" lie. To tell their audiences/voters that Joe Biden won the 2020 election. That after the multiple investigations and recounts that have been carried out in the states of

7. GA, PA, MI, WI& AZ, including 64 lawsuits that required review by judges, including Trump appointed judges, there is no doubt that Biden won the election. It is SO CRITICAL that we encourage every single Republican we possibly can to do this as the Republican half of the

8. electorate will ONLY believe it if it comes from Republicans they trust. And we must appeal to Republicans to do it. We must urge them to understand the EXTREME public safety & duress DC is under now. At the heart of all of it lies Trump's Great Lie that somehow his 2nd term

9. was "stolen from him" and we (the media, influencer, political, sane world) must do everything we can to fight back at the crazy world bc it is NOT fringe. It is a HUGE movement. It is mainstream. And no solution is possible until we can get the GOP itself to de-radicalize.

10. It doesn't take them believing in Q'Anon to be radicalized. If a current Rep office holder believes that Donald Trump "really" won the election & that they are suffering through a "stolen" election- that is a radicalized member of Congress. And folks- right now there are more

11. Republicans in Congress like THAT then there are that live in reality. So we have a BIG problem within the GOP and we must be putting max pressure on McConnell & McCarthy to get their Caucuses inline.
