.⁦@Sen_JoeManchin⁩ “received large campaign contributions from daughter’s company amid EpiPen scandal” by ⁦@OpenSecretsDC⁩, 9/21/21 1/ opensecrets.org/news/2021/09/m…

4/ “HEATHER BRESCH, JOE MANCHIN’S DAUGHTER, PLAYED DIRECT PART IN EPIPEN PRICE INFLATION SCANDAL”

“A new email shows the former Mylan CEO worked with her counterpart at Pfizer to corner the market and keep costs up.” By @ryangrim 9/7/21 theintercept.com/2021/09/07/joe…
5/ In 2007, the “Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that Bresch (Manchin’s daughter) did not actually have enough credits for an MBA from West Virginia University, even though the news release announcing her new, high-profile job said she had earned one.” 😳washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/w…
6/ “The school, through its own investigation, found Bresch [Manchin’s daughter] had been given grades ‘pulled from thin air’ because of her ‘high profile.’”

“Bresch's critics were vocal about whether her connections [via Manchin] led to this drama.” 😳😡
7/ “The school took the degree back [from Manchin’s daughter bc she hadn’t earned it. HOW WAS INITIALLY FAKING HER DEGREE LEGAL???]…This is the same year Maylan bought the rights to EpiPen.”
8/ WTAF?! “Nearly 5 years after West Virginia University officials falsified records and awarded an MBA degree to the daughter of the state's governor [@Sen_JoeManchin], the school's academic integrity officer has closed the book on the scandal…” 8/22/12 post-gazette.com/local/region/2…
9/ “The complaint centered on WVU's October 2007 decision to award a degree retroactively to Mylan executive Heather Bresch, the daughter of then Gov. Joe Manchin and a close friend of Michael Garrison, WVU's president at the time.”
10/ “Six months later, an independent panel hired by WVU to investigate the incident concluded administrators falsified Ms. Bresch's [Manchin’s daughter’s] transcript to back her claim that she had earned an MBA degree in 1998.”
11/ “Their actions included adding courses to her transcript that she did not take or pay for and entering grades ‘simply pulled from thin air,’ the panel said.” Again, this fraud was committed on behalf of @Sen_JoeManchin’s daughter.
12/ There’s a whole Wikipedia page about the scandal. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Virg…

Eastman (of the infamous Eastman memo) & Charlie Kirk (founder of TPUSA, which now partners w/ Jack Posobiec who spread the #Pizzagate lie & which employed a guy a few years ago who has since been credibly accused of pedophilia) are also “fellows” at this crap “institute.” 1/

Oh my God. Pleeeease take this down. Lindsey Graham was not “so far down in the polls.” If you bothered to look for a link to support your statement, you would know that. I’m reporting it for spreading misinformation. I’ve had it. 1/
2/ A memo I created re: Lindsey’s race.
3/ Or are we no better than Trump? This is lazy click bait.

Several factors made me concerned about potential election fraud in 2017. One was the discovery that public officials had provided false assurances re: the ability of remote hackers to alter vote tallies & their own ability to know if this had occurred. 1/link.medium.com/ZomUaR7R5jb
Another was the discovery that only two vendors accounted for more than 80 percent of US election equipment and that one of them, ES&S, seemed to have had an unreasonable number of issues & dubious practices. ES&S also seemed to be corrupt. 2/ link.medium.com/CX8OXhkS5jb
Another was that many poll-defying or otherwise dubious results had favored Rs, eg, 2000 FL (bogus felon purge, 16k votes deleted from Gore, blocked recount), 02 GA (secret patches & paperless machines), 02 AL (7k votes deleted from Siegelman & illegal sealing of ballots), … 3/

Anonymous seems to have had it with the fascists.
I hope it’s not too late. We seem to have no law enforcement mechanism to hold the top or even the middle of the fascism pyramid accountable.
