After night one of the televised #January6thCommitteeHearings, the reality of what happened on that day has been brought into sharper, more terrifying focus.
We already knew what happened. But there were some new reveals. 🧵
We saw clips of Bill Barr saying Trump’s election fraud claims were “bullshit,” Ivanka Trump saying she was influenced by Barr because he’s always so trustworthy, and Jared saying all he really cared about was getting as many of his criminal associates pardoned as possible. (2/x)
Even for those who already knew Trump was a frantic psychopath, it was shocking to hear Liz Cheney say: "Aware of the rioters’ chants to ‘hang Mike Pence,’ the president responded with this sentiment: ‘Maybe our supporters have the right idea.’ Mike Pence ‘deserves it.’" (3/x)
In January 2017, Trump inherited a multi-year Obama-Biden recovery that was on track to become, by July 2019, the longest U.S. economic expansion in history. (1/x)
But three years into his Presidency, despite—or because of—all his best efforts, Trump had brought that record-breaking expansion to a screeching halt.
The preventable Trump Recession, which began—pre-Covid—in February 2020, would have been bad enough… (2/x)
But February was also the month that Trump, fully briefed on the coming pandemic, went missing in action. Instead of putting a plan in place to stop #COVID19 spreading unchecked from coast-to-coast, Trump golfed, held rallies, flew to Hollywood & Las Vegas for fundraisers… (3/x)
By denying climate change and blocking the swift action needed to prevent it, the @GOP is guaranteeing “an escalation of infectious diseases” that “will spread to new regions”… “diseases that have never infected humans… may 'spill over' from animals.” wellcome.org/news/what-link…
The @GOP’s pro-life hypocrisy includes their callous disregard for the lives of women. Prestigious medical journal The Lancet says “women’s blood will be on their hands” if #RoeVWade is overturned. #BansOffOurBodies#WomensMarch
#AbbottBorderCrisis is "CATASTROPHIC," says REPUBLICAN Ag. Commissioner Sid Miller.
Abbott's stunt "is increasing the cost of food and adding to supply chain shortages... (his) misguided program is going to quickly lead to $2 lemons, $5 avocados & worse.” dallasnews.com/news/immigrati…
One Texan’s take on that f*cking f*cker Greg Abbott and what he’s doing right now to totally f*ck Texas and the country.
Abbott "is increasing the cost of food and adding to supply chain shortages... (his) misguided program is going to quickly lead to $2 lemons, $5 avocados & worse” dallasnews.com/news/immigrati…
The Greg Abbott border crisis is the latest self-inflicted wound by a Governor whose mismanagement of the Texas’ power grid resulted in death and disaster when 10M lost power for a days & 14M had a boil-water notification for many days. texastribune.org/2022/02/15/tex…#AbbottFailedTexas
Despite claiming to be "pro-life," Greg Abbott's disastrous #COVID19 policies led thousands of Texans to the slaughter.
When free vaccines could have saved lives, Abbott rejected science & turned Year Two of the pandemic into a #TexasCoronavirusMassacre.
This is Donald Trump posing with his close friend George Nader who sold access to the Trump White House and is now serving 10 years in federal prison for transporting a 14-year-old to America for sex. #Groomers#GangOfPedophiles
