@TheJusticeDept

I’m old enough to remember when folks like @TheJusticeDept AG Barr, and @SenAlexander we’re described by various “pundits” “insiders” and “serious political analysts” as “institutionalists” and that @SDNYnews was “independent”.
The old norms NO LONGER APPLY. #FridayNightMassacre

ANY TIME you hear ANY TALKING HEAD on tv or radio describe anyone as an institutionalist, turn the tv channel. They are applying old criteria to the current band of fascists. The #FridayNightMassacre is every bit as alarming as “The Night of the Long Knives” or the Reichstag Fire

@senatemajldr

Think it can’t happen here? Read about the Weimar Republic. Ask yourself why Stephen Miller suggested transporting caged immigrants by boxcar. Review how complicit politicians of the day like @senatemajldr today allowed a madman to have unchecking power. Follow @AuschwitzMuseum .

@DevinNunes

The Friday revelation that House Intel ranking member @DevinNunes was in a conspiracy with an indicted Russian felon to MANUFACTURE dirt on Joe Biden indicates the support for @realDonaldTrump is not based on loyalty to Trump, fear of primary or ideology. (1)

@DevinNunes

It is clear @DevinNunes is corrupted. Her has adopted the Russian narrative. His loyalty is to @KremlinRussia_E, not Trump. Similarly @senatemajldr receiving $3.4 million and an Aluminum Plant in KY in exchange for relieving sanctions on Oleg Deripaska demonstrates compromise (2)

@realDonaldTrump

Investigations into other rabid @realDonaldTrump supporters like @Jim_Jordan @MarkMeadows @mattgaetz @LindseyGrahamSC and @RandPaul would reveal similar kompromat. The corruption is throughout the entire GOP. #FollowTheMoney (3)

Three factors that will determine this election;
1. Voter suppression. There must be far more emphasis and money dedicated to fight for voting rights this cycle. #VoteBlue

2. Turnout. Directly affected by 1. Anything that depresses turnout including massive changes in healthcare, jobs status, immigration will energize the right wing, and/or suppress the moderate groups needed in swing states.
#VoteBlue

3. Convincing white voters on the right AND the left that their economic status, healthcare, and national security are more important to their lives than their perceived privileged status for being white. That’s the vein Trump taps (con’d)

Alabama. Ohio. Kentucky. Georgia. Assaults on women’s rights by the GOP. “Christian” Sharia law. Assaults on Black and Brown immigrants. GOP Apartheid. Assaults on the working class, farmers, and the poor. GOP oligarchy. Attacks on the free press. GOP authoritarian fascism. (1)

How did we get here? The #PowellMemorandum in 1973 provided the blueprint. But the seeds are from the 60s. President Lyndon Johnson broke it down to the basic formula. (2)

You wonder why the majority of white women vote GOP despite the assault on women’s rights? You wonder why the majority of white women voted for a proven serial sexual predator and alleged rapist Trump? White preference is more important to them than women’s rights. (3)

@realDonaldTrump

So... let’s get this straight. After advocating for a “big beautiful” concrete wall between the U.S and Mexico 🇲🇽 AND that Mexico would PAY FOR IT, @realDonaldTrump (aided by a complicit @senatemajldr) shuts the government down. #WhereAreThePesos (1)

Why is Trump insisting on his boondoggle of a wall? His “wall” initially was a campaign device to help him remember to speak about immigration on the campaign trail. His rallies were filled with chants of “build the wall” and “Mexico will pay for it”. #WhereAreThePesos (2)

@realDonaldTrump

So @realDonaldTrump is willing to disrupt the lives of 800,000 Federal employees (including the Coast Guard, @FBI, TSA, and Air Traffic Control) for a bogus ineffective wall that was a campaign prop. He’s even willing to declare a “National Emergency” to skirt funding. Why? (3)

@msnbc

BE AWARE: Over the next 15 days “pundits”, “pollsters”, and “”beltway insiders” on @msnbc @cnn will try to discourage you by negative polls and talk about the “GOP Base” getting stronger. Don’t buy it. These “both siders”said the same thing before Virginia & Alabama last year (1)

@msnbc

The @msnbc @cnn “pundits” and pollsters were sure that the toxic combination of hate and misogyny will save the GOP. So they will try to discourage you with this “new” poll or saying “Latinos won’t vote” etc. BOTTOM LINE: If we turn out, we win. Period. (2)

Trump and the GOP traffic in hate. They seek to divide. They cage babies. They ally themselves with white nationalists like “Proud Boys”. They cut taxes for the 1%; pay for it by cutting Medicare Medicaid Social Security. Trump & the GOP ARE NOT AMERICA. We are when we vote. (3)
