Here is Nina Turner on stage with multi-millionaires Cenk Uygur and Killer Mike talking about "ordinary people" needing to come out and support "progressive" candidates.
She chose to be on stage in Ohio with Uygur whose candidacy she retracted her endorsement of in 2020.
Nina Turner talking about only "one" candidate in the #OH11 race that has called in "other forces" and gone negative - then Nina smears that campaign.
In fact it's Nina Turner who has raised $2 million+ from outside support using Our Revolution, TYT and other "outside forces."
Nina Turner has raised more than $2million for her congressional campaign - that kind of money is usually enough to run for the U.S. Senate. Her closest opponent has raised $600k+ - a sum akin to what Marcia Fudge normally raised.
Now who's getting support from "outside force?"
Also, what's the difference between a "red" box that says "donate" and a yellow "box" that says donate???
Cenk can't answer a basic question about what is needed in Congress to pass more progressive laws.
He erroneously states it's 50 plus 1 so long as that 1 is Nina.
What about the filibuster?
VP Harris IS the ONE in the Senate.
And Nina is running for a HOUSE seat.
Nina Turner says you can do well and good by supporting socially conscious businesses.
Only Aveda is now owned now by multinational corporation Estee Lauder (and doesn't plant trees by the way).
Body Shop was a British company sold to L'oreal Paris and is now a Brazilian corp.
Nina Turner after 4 years of Trump and the rise of fascism in the GOP says it's not about left vs. right, but about right vs. wrong. She's running in a Dem +61 race.
So, when ALL 50 Senate Republicans voted to block Democrats' voting rights bill who was right and who wrong then?
Nina Turner says it's "legal to bribe politicians in the United States." #OH11
And, after the 1/6 and w/53% of GOP believing Trump is the 'true president' Nina still states that "poor Republicans should be working with poor Democrats."
Is Nina going to work with Louie Gohmert?
All this just so Nina Turner can run for President in 2024 - if you don't think she'll primary Biden, you're kidding yourself.

Following up on the excellent piece in @RollingStone by @7im on the prayer calls made by House Speaker Mike Johnson with a Christian nationalist MAGA pastor Jim Garlow, I uncovered another call that is equally troubling.
Authoritarianism is here folks.
Thread:
On Aug 9th Pastor Jim Garlow welcomed Speaker Mike Johnson on a prayer call to discuss what he calls the "constitutional crisis" before America in which cabinet level officials have come before Congress and lied under oath, all of which Johnson considers impeachable offenses.
/2
Jim Garlow starts the conversation with a clip of Speaker Johnson grilling DHS Secretary Mayorkas and then accuse him of lying to Congress. Garlow states he's "never seen the kind of disregard by the Exec branch to the Legislative Branch" by members of the Biden cabinet.

You want the receipts on Speaker Mike Johnson?
Look no further.
This is the ultimate thread of a man only Margaret Atwood could have dreamed up for America in 2023.
Make sure you read to the very end (especially you ladies, um, handmaids.)
/Thread.
In 2017, just a year after being elected to Congress Speaker Mike Johnson wrote an article in "Answers Magazine" about how Obergefell opened "a legal Pandora’s Box."
He called it: "Losing Liberty Without Losing Hope"
And BOY is it a doozy.

Speaker Johnson wants you to know this about the Obergefell decision:
"many people of faith have still not yet fully considered what the case may mean to them. Here is why it matters, not just to Christians in the United States but around the world."
Speaker Mike Johnson: a Tale of Financial Deception in Five Parts
Part I. Scrub your wife's "Onward Christian Counseling Services" website as soon as you are elected Speaker of the House.
Why? It refers to how you work together in award-winning marriage counseling sessions.
Part 2.
Mike Johnsons doesn't want you to know what he reminds his baptist congregation of in Fall 2022: that he and his Teacher/Wife Kelly led a marriage conference for Cypress Baptist Church in Dallas, TX a few months prior where they talked about counter-culture parenting.
Part 3.
Mike Johnson even posted:
Kelly and I were truly blessed by the opportunity to lead the Cypress Marriage Retreat this weekend in Frisco, TX! What an encouragement it was to be with so many couples who are determined to live out God’s design and purpose for the marriage."
Speaker Mike Johnson has gone to great lengths to scrub his social media. So here with his "Teacher/Wife" Kelly is the sermon he doesn't want you to hear: "Answer for Our Times."
Thread:
MJ: "What is God’s Design for Society: God... created things to work in a certain way. the Bible is our owner’s manual as I refer to it. It teaches us and tells us through the instruction of the Holy Spirit how things are supposed to operate.
Mike Johnson speaking on forms of Gov't: "By the way the United States is not a democracy. Do you know what a democracy is? Two wolves and a sheep deciding what’s for dinner. You don’t want to be in a democracy. Majority rule - not always a good thing."
Dave Weigel got suspended from The Washington Post for reposting a sexist joke. A lot of people on here think the punishment is too harsh for his “mistake.”
But, looking back over Weigel’s early career, was it a mistake? Or, is this really who he is at heart?
Thread
Weigel started out as an early blogger and college Editor/Reporter for the Chronicle, a conservative rag at Northwestern (2000-2004).
(Wonder of wonders he wasn't canceled just for drinking JD and DIET coke.)
I’d bet money that most of the dirt-bag left has no clue how far right Weigel was back then. He even worked for the Center for Individual Rights - you know, the public interest law firm fighting to ban the use of race in admissions and other affirmative action initiatives.
Drew Hernandez a week ago on 11/3 says how being in Kenosha "changed my life." He states "the town was being attacked" and the "police were doing nothing about it." #RittenhouseTrial#KyleRittenhouse
Drew Hernandez - Kenosha, Kyle Rittenhouse Trial.
Drew Hernandez on 11/3 in this podcast says about Rosenbaum "that's the pedophile that Kyle shot."
"This is my opinion: I personally believe that after Kyle shot that first guy they were probably going to execute Kyle publicly in Kenosha because of what he did."
Drew Hernandez on 11/3 -
This is my opinion: "Here's what I'll say. This is my opinion: If they had publicly executed Kyle in the middle of the street if the radical left would praise it and come out and say 'he deserved it, that should have happened to him.'"
