Let's talk #Nevada Elections
& #AdamLaxalt

1st HIS FAMILY.

The 3 TIMES he's run they told Nevadan's not to vote for him AND this time they EVEN endorsed his opponent @SenCortezMasto

So why would you vote for a man whose own family won't?

Immigrants just coming here for a better life.

Now you might think that these are out of context except #AdamLaxalt was one of the State Attorney Generals that sued to stop the #DACA program expansion.

"Nevada Republican Senate hopeful Adam Laxalt has spent $13,000 running radio ads in Elko and Las Vegas touting his opposition to protections for immigrants who were brought to the country as children, commonly known as "Dreamers."

#Laxalt is also an election denier. An election denier means you don't believe in democracy YET our elections were free & fair in 2020 & that's from the Republican appointed Cyber expert in charge of them @C_C_Krebs

But still #Laxalt lies 🟥👇

#nvvotes22 Image
He's an election denier because he's Trump's buddy and CAMPAIGN MANAGER not because he believes that the elections weren't fair.

LET THAT SINK IN. HE KNOWS HE'S LYING & THAT IT HARMS OUR DEMOCRACY BUT HE DOESN'T CARE AND WANTS TO BE A SENATOR?

#Nevada So his own family doesn't want you to vote for him, he would like to deport dreamers, he's an election denier, he's Trump's buddy does it get worse than this? Why yes it does.

Keep reading

#Nevada Did you also know he doesn't live here except when he runs for office?

Wasn't raised in #Nevada either.

He's such a craven politician he's using our state and his family name to get into office.

Not because he cares about our state.

🟥👇

"Perhaps if he had, he would stand for Nevada’s values rather than for those of his out-of-state donors"

Says his family!

This is from 2018, but we already know they don't support him now either and will be voting for his opponent @SenCortezMasto

rgj.com/story/opinion/…

From another 2018 article

"12 members of Adam Laxalt’s family penned an op-ed strongly attacking their relative’s campaign for governor. The family, lifetime Nevadans, say the current state attorney general’s campaign is misleading and inauthentic."

Said the same this year. Image
So let's get back to some of his policies we know he's anti-immigrant, anti-DACA, election denier, he's also for a Federal ban on abortion..

And arresting woman who get them.

11/
Note there's a big Republican ad campaign LYING to Nevadans telling them that are right to abortion is protected.

Now it is protected with Dobbs being overturned BUT it is not protected from a Federal ban.

From AG Ford 🟥👇

12/
🟥 This is #Republican a lie.

From our ATTORNEY GENERAL when it happened.

"For example, a federal ban on abortion could supersede our law."

Because a federal law often trumps State law. That's why they overturned Dobbs - so States could ban abortion.

ag.nv.gov/News/PR/2022/A…
So electing #Laxalt to Congress means there's 1 more vote for a Federal ban on abortion and again he is for jailing women who get them & even if our rights here hold they would help other states jail women who came here.

Is that the #Nevada you want?
Those aren't our values 😥
#AdamLaxalt also used his power as Attorney General to block investigation into Big oil ...

And the Koch Brothers
...who are his donors.

newsweek.com/adam-laxalt-do… Image
In fact #AdamLaxalt has had a long history of corruption and financial allegations and charges.

newsweek.com/adam-laxalt-do… Image
Including from Lev Parnas. Image
🟥👇 So...
Why would anyone vote for #AdamLaxalt

✅ Anti-DACA
✅ Election denier
✅ Trump buddy/campaign mgr
✅ For Federal Abortion Ban
✅ Funded by the Koch Brothers
✅ Blocked investigations into donors
✅ Own family endorsed his opponent
✅ Doesn't even live here

🟥👇 You know why they want our legislatures? Republicans are trying to get enough states to have a CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION

Then they get to REWRITE the CONSTITUTION.

They need 34
They have 29
And 9 are in play
THEY ONLY NEED 6!

#VoteBlue

#nvvotes22 #Nevada #LasVegas
BTW Do you think that's going to be good for anyone but white straight Evangelical right wing men?

Pay attention to your state legislatures and vote blue.

This is a very real threat to the entire country.

The plan 🟥👇

"By taking over state legislatures, Republicans hope to pass conservative amendments that cannot be electorally challenged"

.@AriMelber all right I love you and you are usually 100% right but when it comes to what Dall-e is you've missed him very important component it is not art nor it is copyrightable ...

Because it doesn't create anything. The camera gave the artist the ability to create composition and photography but the AI takes everyone else's work and makes derivatives in combinations. It does not create anything.

It's basically ripping people off.

Medical, Science, News, & SEO Twitter. Learned so much. Talked to people I would have never met otherwise.

Because it's not a walled garden there was always the chance of random, happy accidents that have led to jobs, friendships, & opportunities I never would've had otherwise

"Take America Back for Christ" was a movement in the 1980s to bring Theocracy to the US.

Dominionists wrote out their plans, documents that outline their world vision.

BTW Dominionism=Christian Nationalism

Don't think because these are from 1989/99 they don't matter. This was a massive movement & this is where they are still headed, just maybe not as organized under the C(oalition)O(n)R(evival) as they were, but these are not fringe they represent current doctrine.

We need to talk about the bastardization of the 2A by the #GOP, the NRA, & the captured Supreme Court.

The INDIVIDUAL right to own a gun was NOT given by the Founding Fathers.

In the hearing.. for SCOTUS
It's every 4s-5s that's a noticeable cut and restart. We lose 1-2s.
