Yesterday, New York Republicans wore the Star of David to compare the treatment of January 6th Capitol insurrectionists to Holocaust victims.
The irony of using that poem that warns of silence when they “came for the socialists” when Republicans rail on socialism 24/7.

Cosplay antivaxxer group which included Black Panther characters holding signs comparing vaccine requirements to segregation, targeted Disney’s new Marvel theme park to spread vaccine disinformation.

Ask @AskPayPal and @VenmoSupport to suspend “Visforvaccine.”
Antivaxxers in costume as Queen Ramonda and Shuri from Marvel’s Black Panther are holding signs calling vaccine requirements “modern day segregation.”
Traffic slowed down and visitors who were headed to the park were confronted with messages spreading fear of the covid vaccine.

“V is for Vaccine” is now raising money off this stunt.

One phone call from @Marvel @WaltDisneyWorld @Disney to @Paypal and @Venmo could shut it down.

Senator Joe Manchin’s own state of West Virginia has introduced 4 bills to restrict voting access.

In October, Manchin urged early voting and absentee ballots, but is currently upholding the filibuster and blocking voting rights.
What West Virginian voter suppression bills is Joe Manchin refusing to stop? Glad you asked.

HB 2607 restricts handicapped voting and potentially ensures their vote won’t count. Curbside voters have to wait for no one to be in line in order to vote.
HB 2666 sets to put restrictions on absentee ballots.
