🧵 Did you know that LA County DA George Gascón is not only Soros-funded, but that he STARTED the Progressive Prosecutor Project w/Soros and convinced him to provide $50M in seed funding to the ACLU in 2014 to get it started? He spoke about it in 2020 at USC. Here are a few clips
"We started looking at a map of the US, trying to identify strategically, what are the urban centers...one of the convos was, how do we go about creating a movement here? Which led to Open Societies Foundation, George Soros' foundation, putting $50M in 2014 thru ACLU to begin it"
Why wasn't he as radical as SF DA? "You have to progressively... a lot of things that are acceptable today, in 2011 would have gotten me - there would have been a recall two years after I was in office, and I didn't want to get recalled because that doesn't get the work done."
The way the ACLU's press release about the $50 million was worded, it wasn't apparent that's what this was for - but Gascon admitted it. By partnering w/ACLU they could use ACLU's existing groundgame network. aclu.org/press-releases…
I wrote about this in December 2020, but it needs to be seen again. Don't let these people fool us
🚨FIRST at @RedState: Student expelled from Vanderbilt organized harassment campaigns of FL school board members over "book banning" and walkouts over DeSantis' "Don't Say Gay" bill, had at least 4 White House visits. No, this isn't an organic movement. redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
@RedState More receipts showing @jack_petocz's WH/DNC connections and activism, which previously centered on LGBTQ issues
@RedState @Jack_Petocz And more - selfies with Pelosi & Schumer, Pete Buttigieg, meetings with the Second Gentleman
🚨 🧵SCOOP w/audio: @lapublichealth under Barbara Ferrer didn't abide by its own COVID guidelines, leading to worker illnesses and deaths and possibly spreading disease throughout LA as inspectors were denied COVID leave and co-workers weren't properly notified when one tested positive.
"I want to be clear... the protocols that were being enforced, that we were given, were not even being practiced within our office. And then the outcome was what? Just sick, people getting COVID..."
Ferrer and county officials have known for at least two years that there were problems, as evidenced by CalOSHA letter and emails w/union reps exclusively obtained by @RedState. CalOSHA letter:
🚨 Workplace bullying and retaliation led to the suicide of Heather Hughes, an LA County Department of Public Health Employee, on Thursday. According to sources, Heather left a note on her desk referencing Liza Frias, Brenda Lopez, and Scott Abbott. Heather's requests for FMLA and reasonable accommodation were rejected, and sadly she saw no other way out. She put on her Public Health jacket and went to the top of the 18-story building at Metroplex Wilshire and jumped.
LA County DPH head Barbara Ferrer has known of the major issues in the Environmental Health Division for YEARS. In August 2021, despite the possibility of retaliation, more than 1/3 of the union members in the office participated in a Vote of No Confidence against Frias and her deputies, and noted that they'd brought up the issues over and over to HR reps and management and their concerns were dismissed out of hand.
The union also sent a cease and desist letter to Barbara Ferrer and Muntu Davis, which they ignored.
@JaniceHahn @LindseyPHorvath @kathrynbarger @HildaSolis @HollyJMitchell - will you do something about this? Ferrer, Frias, and all of the other toxic managers MUST GO.
🧵 Timeline to Ronna McDaniel's resignation ... Here is the first in-depth analysis that RedState - and ONLY RedState - did on RNC finances, in December 2022.
EXCLUSIVE Analysis Shows RNC Spent Millions Spent on Private Jets, Limos, Luxury Retreats, Broadway Shows redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
Ronna's people hit back hard, including Susie Wiles, claiming that my reporting was off-base, not complete, blah blah blah. But, they were wrong. Here, I debunked them. redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
Even after she won, the RNC was a little fixated on marginalizing me and my writing redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
🧵 Here we go. Memo sent by Christine Toretti, Chair of the RNC's Standing Budget Committee, to the 168 members of the RNC regarding my story. It's inaccurate and defamatory and I wasn't going to share it but since others who aren't in the 168 have shared parts of it, I am going to defend myself. First, they never sent me FEC filings, and they didn't try to "reason" with me. They tried to bully and gaslight me and have me chasing squirrels to distract from publishing - to buy time. It worked for about, ah, 12 hours, until I satisfied myself that they weren't acting in good faith. (P.S. there is some new info in this thread too)
1st, check out what’s completely missing from the RNC's rebuttal memo: GOTV texting! Wonder why. 🤔
And, since we’re talking about investing in activities that win elections, the DNC spent $883,333 on Canvassing during the time period. Nothing for RNC, though they will probably claim they did it through transfers to state parties. fec.gov/data/disbursem…
🧵Not making any promises here... just posting screenshots of things I think are interesting as I go through the unsealed docs in Giuffre v. Maxwell. So far the documents added are all from the Boies Schiller firm. #EpsteinClientList
"Clinton likes them young"
Maxwell kept pictures of underage girls (Epstein's "masseuses") performing sexual acts, sometimes on each other, at the Palm Beach house and on her computer, according to a former household employee who Maxwell later threatened to try to keep quiet
Prince Andrew abused more than one underage girl provided to him by Maxwell and Epstein and even had an orgy with multiple underage girls at Epstein Island.
