THREAD: "Michigan Witches Against Patriarchy" rally in Lansing to call for an END to "abusive language" & "attacks on fem elected officials" (Gov Whitmer, AG Nessel & SOS Benson and others) by #MIGOP misogynists Shirkey & Weiser.
"Patriarchal Violence (PV) is an interconnected system of institutions, practices, policies, beliefs, and behaviors that harm, undervalues, and terrorize girls, women, femme, intersex, gender non-conforming, LGBTQ, and other gender-oppressed people in our communities."-@SPLCenter
In Lansing, and the Michigan Republican Party (PV is bipartisan tho), as one former politician put it: "The abhorrent treatment of women is literally built right into the building."
Sen Shirkey is one of the #MIGOP#MILeg "leaders" who needs to STOP it.
Mike Shirkey, who likes to quip about "spanking" or having "fistfights" w women he can't defeat politically, is a self-proclaimed Christian™ "Free Methodist".
What does @SenMikeShirkey's CHURCH say about his misogyny? Gender equality?
Erik Prince, former #Blackwater CEO, whose f-up caused #Fallujah, brother to Betsy DeVos, has reportedly resigned from "Frontier Services Group" via Hong Kong outlet.
He had SEVENTEEN front companies in 2007 when he was outed by @jeremyscahill's research & book.
Hong Kong outlet reporting resignation of Erik Prince from Frontier Services Group appears to be "Zhitong Finance APP News"👉zhitongcaijing.com/content/detail… No 2nd source yet. #DEVOSexposed
He's resigned before, it's the #Amway family traditional dodge.
DeVos Clan crap NEVER stops 🙄
Meanwhile @CREWcrew hot of Erik Dean's (& big-sis Betsy Dee DeVos) six again w FOIA lawsuit.
Mike Shirkey: "very proud" & "not backing off one oz." on 39 #VoterSuppression bills on call w #ALEC front-group NFIB (National Federation of Independent Business).
NFIB touts itself as champion for "Small Business" community nationwide & in States, but pushes BIG BIZ, #ALEC & BILLIONAIRE issues like the "death tax" and privatization.
|@grist: Leaked calls show #ALEC’s secret plan to fight Biden on climate: NEW working group is promoting long-shot tactics like Nullification & a Constitutional Convention (of States or COS) grist.org/politics/alec-…#ALECexposed#ALECideas=Make ALL Federal actions "null & void"
"The call (attained by @EXPOSEDbyCMD) was 1 of 2 so far as part of #ALEC’s new "Functional Federalism Working Group", which exists separately from a longstanding ALEC task force on federalism & int'l relations." #ALECideas= #CovidDenial Kill us fast. #ClimateDenial Kills us slow.
American Legislative Exchange Council TACTIC is to make Biden Exec Orders, Fed Laws & Courts "NULL and VOID" via legislation in US (#GOP-controlled) States.
