1/ Many tired-of-Trump Republicans/Cons are pointing out that the Feds had a subpoena on all documents that have classified MARKINGS regardless of classification status, and that Trump attorneys were stupid to certify that those were handed over when they were not. Um...
2/ Before we get to the apparent false certification, if the Feds' category for documents was based on markings and not classification status, then they relied on archive laws to get a #BidenRaidOnTrump. This makes the raid more insane; not less. So why the towel-throw in?
3/ Besides, all the marked-as-classified-but-possibly-declassified documents in the photo fit into 1-2 boxes, yet they left with 33 boxes. So again this was an Archive raid that at worst should have first been adjudicated in court (in terms of Executive Privilege).

Over at OJPAC (an organization that I co-founded) we warned early on about the damages of sustained school closures:
In May 2020, a mere few months into the lockdowns, @WHO noted that there have not been outbreaks in/due to schools. But nobody in the US cared. Lockdowns of schools continued.

Dems kept pushing lockdowns despite this in May 2020/

🚨 🚨 🚨 🚨🚨🚨

1/8 Thread:

Germany implemented emergency rules to save energy such as that public buildings should not have their heat above 66, and that many public lights should be shut off.

A ban on heating private swimming pools is in play too!

Read from Reuters 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
2/8 The cutback of energy in Germany is a result of Russia reducing gas flows by 80% due to technical issues which Germany says is a lie (left screen gran via Reuters).

Well, ten days into the invasion, I warned that playing games with gas/oil will be a Putin play.

3/8 Saw my March 4th tweet above?

Great.

Right from the start, people called for energy sanctions on Russia and it got massive social media play. See for example this tweet by Olga Tokariuk: Almost 50,000 retweets and likes and this became the rallying cry.

I have never see so many straw men in less than 100 seconds.

Impressive.
I am not aware of multiple @HouseGOP's or @SenateGOP's who supported the few dozen rowdy people of 1/6. Many GOPs support those who rallied peacefully to the Capitol and/or who entered after being waved by Cops and/or through open doors as Dems did in the Senate during Kavanaugh.
Biden's rhetoric is another illustration how Dems plow ahead with accusations irrespective what GOPs did or did not say or do, so stop assuming that if only Trump didn't do X and if only @HouseGOPs did Y, then Dems will be stuck. They won't!

It is the opinion of @benshapiro that the person who...

- Gave the GOP the WH in 2016 (after losses in 2018, 2012)

- Who helped SenateGOP/GOPGovs outperform polls in 2018

- Who would win in 2020 if not for Big Tech Censorship and Never Trump Saboteurs is a negative for GOP. 🤡
Underpinning @benshapiro's take is that half independents say that Trump is pushing them to Dems.

Great.

- What does the other half say?

- How many GOPs are not voting by you avoiding Trump?

- Romney won Indies in 2012 but lost!

- Dems anyway use Trump so use it 4 ur side!
In steps @RyanGirdusky and says that the GOP can't talk about inflation either that is still almost the worst in 40 years (except for 2-3 months ago) because gas is dropping...

Shapiro agrees.

According to Ben, GOP can't talk Trump, Fed overreach, Dobbs and inflation.

1/ I saw tweets from right-leaning pundits that Trump is at fault for locking down strong (through Fauci no less).

Let me remind you that Scott Adams pushed for lockdowns of schools and travel bans. The idea that all on the right would back Trump if he held the line is absurd.
2/ In Mid-March 2020 as lockdowns globally and more so in the US sped up, I noted how closing schools in Spain made things worse. Scott Adams argued "we don't know what would have happened if schools stayed in session."
3/ In a lengthy thread on March 8, 2020, I noted how the Trump Admin tried to slow down travel starting in Jan 2020, yet they were attacked including by the WHO Director.

March 15th, Adams noted that the WHO director knows "he was dead wrong" for opposing travel bans.

Hillary's emails as Sec of State are also of public interest and I am sure its content - not how @wikileaks got them - was the main focus of yours and Politico's reporting. Right?

Another point @politicoalex. I am sure the Biden Diary “is in the public interest and fully protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution" yet Project Veritas was raided for it and two people were charged for trying to sell it. But hey.
Those in the GOP/Con Movement who are no fans of @NikkiHaley are not kicking up a storm about Twitter's double standard and possible illegality by those involved in the leak of the document.

It's not "their" candidate so all is good.

Same as with the abuses of Trump.

MORONS!
