I’m not one to “visit the sins” of a man on his brother, but no one will ever convince me that it’s a good idea to have someone in a position of power when his siblings are in extremely compromising situations.
Not to mention his own unanswered questions around Jan 6 & DC riots.
To be clear, this was already in the works before Biden took office.
Trump promoted Charles Flynn at the end of November.
And, from what I can tell based on reading the details (although I’m not super familiar with these processes, and could be wrong), that promotion is what triggered him to be in a position to be in that meeting on Jan 6th.
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is a piece of propaganda published in 1903, claiming that a Jewish conspiracy was behind criticisms of the Russian Imperial order.
Exposed as a fraud, it still spread to the west.
Hitler and Goebbels praised Henry Ford’s publication of it.
For hundreds of years, “blood libel” propaganda - the claim that an evil cabal was drinking the blood of children - has been used to demonize, scapegoat, and persecute Jews.
Today?
Q claims that Dems are raping and killing children for “adrenochrome.”
A thread warning about the “authoritarian theater” Trump and the GOP were about to use, complete with describing their Covid strategy targeting Dem states, and warning about the way the Antifa bogeyman would be used.
While everyone talks about the Roe and J&J cases at SCOTUS, they are quietly hinting that they may uphold some voting restrictions.
There are three issues at play here - two are specific restrictions on voting; another regards the VRA more broadly.

In a democratic republic, institutional structures are designed and created to balance the inherent risks that a purely direct democracy would pose to a nation’s stability.
The EC is one example of this (although it failed to stop Trump, and is arguably no longer useful).
Philosophically speaking, the majority of the nation would agree that every single eligible citizen should have the opportunity to freely cast their vote, to have a voice in the direction of their government; and the constitutional structures will act as the balancing force.

Susan Collins’ PAC is under investigation for what the FBI calls a “massive scheme to illegally finance” her re-election bid.
The GOP uses her to pitch these things, because the media continues to allow her to pretend that she is a “moderate,” as if she is materially different.
Now, one important thing that Asha didn’t mention (probably for brevity), is that Barr didn’t act alone.
Tweet 4 in her thread leaves out a huge part of the story, which is what all of the Garland/DOJ/Court talk is about today.
Instead of “I’ll do it,” what Barr really did..

Barr actually *conspired* with Rosenstein and the OLC (who is supposed to just provide legal counsel), to fabricate a memo that would *justify* his plan to mislead everyone about the Mueller report.
Judge A.B. Jackson realized this & ordered DOJ to release that memo.
