As our economy teeters on total disaster because of the republican debt crisis it’s important to spell out exactly what will happen if republicans succeed 🧵
 
To start, full Social Security checks will stop.
If republicans collapse the entire economy Medicare will freeze, crushing millions. Image
If republicans collapse the entire economy veterans will lose their health care. Image

Corrupt republican judges are taking a sledgehammer to the pillars of American life.

Democracy is in peril. It’s obvious we must expand and balance the Supreme Court and I’d like to explain why (🧵)
Expanding the court is about balance. It‘s been 53 years(!) since Dems held a sup court majority.

Since then republicans have appointed 16 justices; Democrats 4.

The high court isn’t a reflection of America and hasn’t been in ages.
The court is racked with corruption

*5 justices were appointed by gop pres who lost the popular vote
*two are credibly accused of sex crimes
*One's wife participated in insurrection
*One was jammed onto the bench days before an election
*One sits in a stolen seat

🧵 As republicans and lying fox “news” propaganda try to whitewash and lie about January 6, watch the clips here to remember what happened that day.
Before they breached the Capitol, the fascist mob constructed gallows and nooses and threatened police officers with violence.
The mob then attacked Capitol police officers and forced their way in, hunting for Members of Congress.
