Over the weekend I took an in-depth look at David and June Trone’s donations and found the following: 🧵
1) In July 2012, David Trone’s wife June gave 2 donations to Romney’s presidential campaign against Obama but David gave to neither. Odd to say the least for Democrats..
2) There was also a $38K donation that June and David Trone made to Greg Abbott in 2014, in addition to the individual donations we already knew about. Why did they give so much money to Greg Abbott? was this a pay to play situation for his Total Wine business in TX? 🤔
3) In 2015, Trone gave 2 donations equaling $10k to PA State Senator Jake Corman. Per Trone he donates to R’s for his business BUT there are no Total Wine’s in PA. So why give $ to Jake, was he trying to influence him? 🤔
Don’t assume the person you see in commericals or sending you mailers is the best person for the job. Take initiative on your own to learn who is running, do research, go to events, read articles, and follow candidates on social media. 🧵
I have always done my research on candidates but made it a point to get fully involved in Maryland politics in 2022 and go to events. I also take my friend with me too.
Candidates have meet and greets, organizing events and need volunteers. It’s not hard to get involved.
I honestly love going to political events, have met tons of people and find it more fun to be engaged vs complaining about who isn’t reaching out. Candidates aren’t hard to find and not everyone has the resources to run ads all day. You can seek them out too.
People have no clue what is happening behind the scenes. Biden tolerates Bibi..they have different values. Biden is a pragmatist & Bibi is a narcissistic radical nut.
There is a powerful struggle happening but with the world watching Biden has to be strategic and diplomatic. 🧵
Notice the Arab world has gone pretty quiet. Qatar, Egypt and U.S. are working together. Jordanians and Saudis have calmed down. This means Biden, Blinken and Sullivan are working the phones. Blinken will be back in Israel Thursday. Red lines are handled behind closed doors.
I made a video on the obvious pressure the WH has put on Israel a few weeks ago. Please pay attention and stop with the tantrums.
This article has me 🙄 but glad the narrative was countered in the quotes by Black people who do this work.
I am so over these white reporters and their Black voter articles. They seriously need to go focus on white voters. 🧵
The articles premise is based off polls numbers which is hilarious because most national polls do not survey enough Black people. Fox and Quinnipiac did not include the # of Black people they talked to. 100 - 200 Black folks don’t represent the electorate.
This was a good quote from Lavora Barnes. Dems “have got work to do” she is correct but she is right it’s too damn early.
On 3/5/21, Biden appointed Channing Phillips as acting U.S. attorney for D.C.
Sherwin (prior Trump appointee) stated he "charged more than 330 cases related to the Capitol assault in just seven weeks," saying it is "a pace unmatched in the history of the Department of Justice."
