Faces & Districts of the 185 House Members of Congress who either voted to try & overturn the Election or against a January 6th Commission. They voted against Democracy. #SeditionCaucus#SeditiousGOP#PostcardsforAmerica
I did a THREAD with a Postcard w/ the Reps for each State.
But first, here's a postcard of the 8 GOP SENATORS who voted to overturn the Election AFTER the violent assault on the Capitol by Trump supporters. Do not forget them. They do not represent you or believe in preserving our Democracy. #SeditionCaucus#PostcardsforAmerica
Oh, & here's a postcard of the 185 House Members of Congress who either voted to try & overturn the Election or voted against a January 6th Commission. They voted against Democracy. Do not forget. They should not be in Congress. #SeditionCaucus#SeditiousGOP#PostcardsforAmerica
FLORIDA! These "Representatives" all voted to overturn the 2020 Election and/or against investigating the insurrection. They are not pro-Democracy and should not be in Congress. #SeditionCaucus#SeditiousGOP #PostcardsforAmerica
NEW JERSEY! Jeff VanDrew voted to overturn the 2020 Election and against investigating the insurrection. He is not pro-Democracy. (I'd tag him but he deleted his account. Wouldn't want constituents to find him.) #SeditionCaucus#SeditiousGOP We need the #FreedomToVoteAct Now!
OHIO! 9 of your Congressional Representatives voted to overturn the 2020 Election and/or against investigating the insurrection. They are not pro-Democracy. #SeditionCaucus#SeditiousGOP #PostcardsforAmerica
TEXAS! 20 (Twenty!) of your Representatives voted to overturn the 2020 Election and/or against investigating the insurrection. They are not pro-Democracy. (Which, given everything else going on down there, you know.) #SeditionCaucus#SeditiousGOP #PostcardsforAmerica
"History is watching — just like history watched three years ago on January 6th when insurrectionists stormed this very Capitol and placed a dagger to the throat of American democracy."
-President Biden #SOTU24 🧵
"Overseas, Putin of Russia is on the march, invading Ukraine and sowing chaos throughout Europe and beyond. If anybody in this room thinks Putin will stop at Ukraine, I assure you: He will not."
-President Biden #SOTU24🧵
"But now, assistance to Ukraine is being blocked by those who want to walk away from our world leadership. It wasn’t long ago when a Republican president named Ronald Reagan thundered, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.”

As GOP Senators try to explain why they don’t think #VotingRights are important, sharing here what each tweeted on #MLKDay
Find yours to retweet. #MLK : “Our most urgent request to the president of the United States & every member of Congress is to give us the right to vote.”
But first, this message from, @BerniceKing
‘Please share this quote from my father #MLKDay2022 :
“I think the tragedy is that we have a Congress with a Senate that has a minority of misguided senators who will use the filibuster to keep the majority of people from even voting.”
I was in the room where it happened when Susan Collins threw her support by Kavanaugh. Just before she spoke, in come a cluster of GOP congressmen - ones that all look like they’re over 100 - & sit behind her like vultures. My first thought was, ‘peer pressure from Cryptkeepers’
But, they know where the cameras are in the Senate Chamber and clearly carefully positioned the visual for a speech about accepting a Supreme Court Judge who had been accused of sexual assault - not investigated- drawing thousands of protesters from across the country. #MeToo
About 2 minutes into her speech, we saw where it was going and got up and stomped out as loudly as we could without getting arrested - they had already arrested some of her Maine constituents. Senator Collins glanced up as we exited.
(Hear at about 1.50 )
