Elise Stefanik just can’t stop talking about endorsements. So let’s keep talking about her endorsements of candidates she wants in Washington. Because she IS the company she keeps. A🧵

Stefanik went all in for Carl Paladino in the NY-23 primary who believes Hitler was the kind of leader we need (she even sent her staff to run his campaign). cityandstateny.com/politics/2022/…
Stefanik went all in for serial liar Sarah Palin who has said more crazy things than can fit in a tweet salon.com/2022/08/29/one…
Stefanik has given her full support to the QAnon caucus of Lauren Boebert, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Mayra Flores.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/j…
Stefanik wants Marjorie Taylor Greene to be the face of the Republican Party and has given her a platform to spout nonsense and hate. apnews.com/article/2022-m…
Stefanik’s endorsements are a clear indicator of who she is and what she believes. #NY21, the Republican Party, and America deserve better.

🧵How many times has Elise Stefanik voted NO and then taken credit for the dough in #NY21? Spoiler Alert: A LOT. #StefanikScam
Rep. Elise Stefanik – voted against American Rescue Plan (ARPA) funding that helped keep police officers in #NY21 on the payroll – that didn’t stop her from taking credit for the funds.
🧵Putting on my former CIA officer hat regarding today’s redacted affidavit released. Highly classified documents - much like the Office of the President itself - do not belong to any one person, they belong to the American people. /1
The mishandling of highly classified documents could do grave harm to our national security, including information that could compromise human intelligence sources and lead to their deaths. /2
Claims of blanket declassification of these documents are bullshit (looking at you Kash Patel) because just saying something is declassified does not magically remove the tremendous harm to our national security of our most sensitive information getting into the wrong hands. /3
🧵 Former CIA officer here. If I took classified intelligence - let alone Top Secret, Sensitive Compartmented Information about nuclear weapons - I would expect a visit from federal law enforcement. That’s the FBI’s job, to protect our national security. /1
We don’t know if the Top Secret nuclear weapons info was about the US arsenal or a foreign government - but this represents an enormous breach of our national security and if the latter, could compromise intelligence sources and methods and possibly lead to death of our spies./2
We don’t yet know why Trump took these Top Secret documents and refused to return them. But a question every American should be asking - after Trump’s actions on #Jan6 to retain power, how confident are you that he would not sell out our national security to benefit himself? /3
From the start - Elise Stefanik has led the effort to cover up the truth about #January6th and obstruct attempts to investigate what happened. A thread 👇 /1
Remember - Stefanik spread “Big Lie” falsehoods to keep Donald Trump in power, despite losing a free and fair election. Hours after the attack she defied the Constitution & will of the American people by refusing to certify the election. /2
Stefanik voted AGAINST an independent investigation of the attack styled after the 9/11 Commission. /3 mynbc5.com/article/stefan…
