NeverTrump white guys who backed Kavanaugh and decided Dr. Blasey Ford was lying about being attacked by Kavanuagh (bcs women love the spotlight for that, right?) are losing their sh** because @POTUS is keeping his campaign promise to name a qualified Black woman to SCOTUS 1/5
Aside from the credible attack allegations, cryin' Kavanaugh clearly did not have the temperament, judgement or character to be SCOTUS yet NeverTrump guys (like Kristol) went to bat for him. George Conway defended the Handmaid lady who thinks women shld be subservient to men 2/5
These guys are happy to pretend that 200 years of only white men on SCOTUS was acceptable - must've meant they were the only qualified or most qualified. You know, "superior". And by looking at only Black women for this new spot, it somehow means "not qualified" & "inferior".3/5
Perhaps they don't think Dr. Blasey-Ford was lying about being attacked by Brett Kavanagh. Perhaps they just think it's no big deal if he did. It has to be one or the other. Attempted rape by a white guy is not disqualifying for SCOTUS but being Black and female is? 4/5
Because Biden hasn't even named the person yet and these same guys are already bitchin' about the fact it will be a person who is Black and female, as if there's a bigly chance she will somehow not be as qualified as Kavanaugh or have his temperament, character and judgement🤨5/5

huffpost.com/entry/and-just… As someone who has worn a hearing aid & experienced hearing loss & surgery, I know it’s a difficult disability bcs it isn’t instantly recognized by others. They initially think you’re rude, a snob, or stupid. The actor has hearing loss so it was written in
I wore a hearing aid in my mid-30's. Had surgery that was only mildly successful. A congressman in his 60's approached me one day to ask me about it. His wife said he needed one and he feared it would make him seem "old". 1/3
I said, "Congressman, if you are not hearing people, they think you are old and addled. If they see the hearing aid, they know it's a hearing loss issue, not a mental issue. 2/3

Likely bcs JD was feeding info to his rw pal at USA Today he erroneously thought was damaging to me, that he got from Caputo but wasn't told it was garnered FROM MY HACKED EMAIL. JD got a visit from FBI where they pretended they were investigating me re: Ukraine to get his source

My "pay it forward" story. I TNR'd, feed and care for a colony of feral (now tamed and looking for homes) cats at nearby railroad tracks. I tend to their shelters and surroundings and spend time with them, and dress "accordingly" when putting in the work. 1/5
One day a couple of years ago I had to stop at Walmart for cat food, and had just come from the RR tracks -- and I looked like it.
There were 2 young black women ahead of me in line, who were buying a few baby items and from their convo, appeared to be organized & budgeting 2/5
There was a toddler. I'm sure any spare money should've gone towards the kid. But when I went to pay, the cashier told me the girls ahead of me had paid for my cat food purchases. They were long gone and I could not thank them or tell them that it wasn't necessary.3/5

Kinda hard for the Kyle Rittenhouse enablers threatening defamation lawsuits for anyone referring to him as a white nationalist when there's this photo of him in bar -- a watering hole of the Proud Boys -- giving the white power sign. Also, his association with Tucker Carlson.

I was a political pundit for about 18 years, logging in a few thousand appearances on FOX, MSNBC, CNN and other venues. I was at FOX studios a couple times a week during 2015, and was alarmed at the changes in the summer and fall of 2015 before Trump ordered them to ban me. 1/7
Everyone knew what a buffoon Trump was and openly said so. But one by one, like Stepford Wives, key people would suddenly "shift" to support Trump but could no longer look me in the eye. I knew something else was going on. This was not organic -- not legit.2/7
It was chilling. I'd been making my living in politics, campaigns and media for decades and had never seen this before -- ESPECIALLY not in a primary with so many legit candidates. A few months later, CNN was doing the same. Banned me on Trump's orders. Still in the primary.3/7

Pretending COVIDIOTs & MAGA are "equal" in numbers or represent "the other side" which must be heard and represented in the press is lunacy. COVID science is NOT a matter of opinon. 1/4
MAGAats lying about Trump crimes, lies and leadership role in the Jan 6th terror attack on our Capitol, or even denying it happened -- are NOT "the other side". They are liars, traitors and worse. Address them as such and treat them as such. 2/4
Push back on those who try to silence you by urging "civility". If they were directly at your door trying to harm and kill your loved ones, you would not be "civil". If they were on your street with guns and tanks, and you were able to fight back, you would not be "civil". 3//4
