Trump is basically saying “who me? Incite violence?” while continuing to promote the same lie that incited the insurrection that killed 5 people. Jan. 6th was not a “one time occurrence.”

TRUMP. INCITED. VIOLENCE. CONSTANTLY. EVEN. AS. A. NOMINEE.

Vaccine hesitancy is something that impacts more people than just Trump supporters. If you ever were or remain more open to the idea of injecting bleach into your lungs than the vaccine into your arm, you’re not someone who can be reasoned with. This thread is for everyone else.
Most of us can’t comprehend how anyone could still be hesitant. COVID has killed nearly 600K Americans while the vaccine has killed ZERO. I hear you. But since nearly 1/3 of American adults are in this category, I’m going to try to get through to them anyway.
If we’re going to convince anyone in this group, lumping them all together as hopeless morons is not the answer. Many are not stupid but simply don’t understand the development process; how vaccines work; or are afraid of adverse reactions or long-term side effects.

Things that set dangerous outrageous precedents:
—Allowing a POTUS to commit endless crimes for 4 years
—Voting to keep him in office after he tried to extort Ukraine to interfere in our election
—Not holding ANY @GOP member of Congress accountable for their role in Jan 6th
—Voting to overturn the results of a free and fair election
—Endorsing Trump’s big lie that the election was “stolen” and Biden is not the legitimate President (Biden is, Trump never was)
—Voting to acquit him after he called on his cultists to storm the Capitol, killing 5 people
—Enabling a President to ignore science, downplay the risks of a pandemic, call it “a hoax,” and do nothing for 75 days leading to over HALF A MILLION American deaths
—Allowing GOP governors to ignore or repeal mask mandates
—Encouraging people not to get vaccinated

“Qualified immunity” is what has enabled police officers to virtually never be held accountable or face consequences for breaking the very laws that their job is to enforce and has allowed thousands of them to literally get away with murder.

GET. RID. OF. QUALIFIED. IMMUNITY.
The entire concept of qualified immunity makes no sense unless the goal is to give the people in charge of enforcing the laws a license to break them. Its origins are of course rooted in racism and were to enable police—who were initially slave patrols—to do just that. Abolish it
If anything, members of law enforcement should be held to HIGHER standards when it comes to following the laws. Qualified immunity is built in to police union contracts; and serves to disincentivize them from doing that because they know they will almost never face consequences.

I’ve never understood the appeal of guns. People I know have tried to explain it to me and I still can’t. Like unless you’re a hunter or something, why do you want something that discharges small pieces of metal at speeds that can kill or permanently dismember/injure someone?
They’re like “what if someone breaks into your house?” and I’m like “I wouldn’t want to kill them over a break in, unless they broke in to try and kill me or my fiance. And even THEN, I’d want them subdued so they could be prosecuted and face consequences that are non-lethal.
I feel like it’s a compensation thing. Guns make insecure men feel more secure the same way a giant truck, expensive sports car, or a sock stuffed in their pants would. They sell the illusion of security when in reality they’re more likely to kill themselves or a family member.

The @GOP is not the party of family values, fiscal conservatism, religious freedom, or anything even remotely resembling morality. @mattgaetz admitting to raping a minor made me realize we need a list of all Republicans who've been credibly accused of sexual misconduct (THREAD)
Let’s start with the ones who actually faced SOME degree of accountability for their illicit behavior and work up to those who still somehow occupy seats in the House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, the Supreme Court, or the halls of Mar-a-Lago instead of a prison cell.
1.) Pat Meehan resigned on April 27, 2018, after months of misconduct allegations. Meehan used taxpayer money to pay off a former aide who accused him of sexual harassment. She claimed he tried to start a romantic relationship with her and became hostile when she rejected him.

When I was younger, people oftened dismiss my political takes by saying “you just think that because your parents are Democrats.” While they certainly had an influence, my parents were all about letting my brother and I reach our own conclusions on things like religion & politics
This meant not only did I get to celebrate Christmas AND Hanukkah (until ultimately choosing Christmas solely on the basis that we generally got more than 8 gifts); I was given the chance to take a pretty impartial objective look at Democrats and Republicans from a very early age
The thing that stood out most to me from as far back as I can remember was how Democrats and left-leaning media outlets tried to tell the truth about most things; or at the very least answer the question they were asked; while Republicans & right-wing media did the exact opposite
