@PoJoCummings

@PoJoCummings @SIfill_ @Kaepernick7 His actions or inactions are directly opposite of what I think are his stated objectives, starting with police disrespecting Mr. Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, August 9, 2014, while the @MoDemParty @stlcopa was cruising to re-election without opposition.

@PoJoCummings

@PoJoCummings @SIfill_ @Kaepernick7 @MoDemParty @stlcopa In 2018, @WesleyBell4STL challenged the horrible incumbent in the primary and ended his political career.

That only happened because people voted.

I think a public figure has a responsibility to set a good example for the rest of us, even if he’s not an expert on government. 2/

@PoJoCummings

@PoJoCummings @SIfill_ @Kaepernick7 @MoDemParty @stlcopa @WesleyBell4STL Rep. John Lewis:

Register and vote.

People died so you can vote.

I seriously believe that he should register and vote.

Exactly how he votes is private, of course.

The best protest vote is an intentional overvote - fill in all the bubbles.

@RepAOC

@RepAOC @AOC, I think it’s time for the pro-choice community to acknowledge that Dobbs is the law of the land, and to amend federal laws accordingly; start with HIPAA.

Let’s be honest:

There will be @GOP officials, family members, big donors, etc., “with problems,” right?

1/

Well, of course they’re going to expect medical professionals to “help them out,” right?

Even though they - or legislators they support - strictly criminalize the exact ‘favors’ they’re requesting, right?

Not to mention covering up statutory rape, right?

You know it.

2/

Well, it’s time to amend HIPAA to remove any protection for hypocrisy.

This can include ‘requests’ to medical professionals to violate state law, or not to report violations of law, or to ignore such a reporting requirement.

No HIPAA protections for hypocrisy.

Thank you.

@KJKnodell

@KJKnodell @halbritz The head of visas at the State Department, the late Assistant Secretary of State for Consular Affairs Ambassador Mary A. Ryan, received a $15,000 bonus for “outstanding performance” for the 12-month period beginning April 2001.

@KJKnodell

@KJKnodell @halbritz Twenty of twenty-one highjackers got visas and 19 out of 20 were warmly welcomed to the Union States.

United Flight UA93 had four highjackers; passengers overpowered them and crashed the plane which was targeting the Capitol in Washington DC.

@KJKnodell @halbritz @vermontgmg Asked to describe the “outstanding performance,” Spokesman @RABoucher declined comment.

@GoBlueFlorida1 @Leamander1 @TheRickWilson @Disney @nytimes @GovRonDeSantis @RonDeSantisFL @ChristinaPushaw @FloridaGOP @JoeGruters @ChrisMZiegler @flcourts @RepGThompson @FlaDems @Manny_A_Diaz Back in 2018, @FlaDems chose @AndrewGillum over @GwenGraham.

Had they known back then what everyone knows now, perhaps not.

@browarddems didn’t review the draft @BrowardVotes @Brenda4SOE November 2018 General Election ballot early enough.

@GoBlueFlorida1 @Leamander1 @TheRickWilson @Disney @nytimes @GovRonDeSantis @RonDeSantisFL @ChristinaPushaw @FloridaGOP @JoeGruters @ChrisMZiegler @flcourts @RepGThompson @FlaDems @Manny_A_Diaz @AndrewGillum @GwenGraham @browarddems @BrowardVotes @Brenda4SOE Nobody identified - and fixed - the ballot design flaw that caused a significant undervote in the Senate race that @SenBillNelson narrowly lost.

There may have been other problems in Broward County, re the proper password to submit recount results, etc.

Not good.

Alcee Hastings (D-FL-20) responsibly announced in @washingtonpost his pancreatic cancer diagnosis.

He should not have sought re-election. Perhaps @HouseDemocrats @FlaDems urged him to retire, perhaps not. He ran again.

@Sheila4Congress challenged him.

@JamesSurowiecki

@JamesSurowiecki Ask @RichardGrenell why he didn’t bother to focus on US states like Texas, Minnesota, Florida, who haven’t repealed their unconstitutional sodomy laws many years after Lawrence (2003).

@LogCabinGOP @LogCabinTexas @LogCabinMiami @LogCabinTPA @mnlogcabin

1/

@JamesSurowiecki

@JamesSurowiecki @RichardGrenell @LogCabinGOP @LogCabinTexas @LogCabinMiami @LogCabinTPA @mnlogcabin One reason why Ambassador Grenell’s Trump Administration - with @KellyCraftKY - failed was because foreign leaders weren’t convinced to take domestic political risks given that @GOP @TexasGOP @mngop @FloridaGOP couldn’t be bothered themselves.

2/

@JamesSurowiecki

@JamesSurowiecki @RichardGrenell @LogCabinGOP @LogCabinTexas @LogCabinMiami @LogCabinTPA @mnlogcabin @KellyCraftKY @GOP @TexasGOP @mngop @FloridaGOP Furthermore, re Wisconsin, @WisDems @benwikler @tammybaldwin @Tony4WI are conspicuous in their silence re why they didn’t repeal their state’s 1849 abortion law when they had the trifecta 2009-2010.

Just be honest: they didn’t have the votes.

⁦@anniegowen⁩, why didn’t you ask ⁦@RichardGrenell⁩ for comment?

He led President Trump’s initiative to urge foreign countries to decriminalize homosexuality.

Texas thrusts itself into the center of battles over personal freedom washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/…

@JohnCornyn

Senator @JohnCornyn was Texas AG when Lawrence reached the Supreme Court; ask him why he refused to defend the Texas law?

@SenTedCruz was Texas Solicitor General at the same time; ask him why he also refused to defend the Texas law.

@SMULawSchool Prof. Dale Carpenter book

2/

@GOP

The Carpenter book is still incomplete.

One reason why the Grenell initiative failed was @GOP @LogCabinGOP @LogCabinTexas @mnlogcabin reluctance to address the same issue within our own country.

@StateDRL for SE JS

This is a great first article; there’s a whole lot more.
