Listen! I’m not wasting any time of these non-voting fools. Come on my TL with your anti-voting, anti @staceyabrams anti @SenatorWarnock vitriol, you’re blocked. No response. No warning. DONE. Now, let’s get to work. Let’s talk Georgia runoff. 1/6
The @GOP in Georgia did not want a repeat of 2020, so they changed the law. Instead of the runoff being 2 months away, it’s now one. The deadline to register for the runoff has PASSED. It was Monday. Again, by design! Now, let’s talk money. 2/6
If you want to help @SenatorWarnock@ReverendWarnock BEAT @HerschelWalker, we need a STRONG ground game. These Dem consultants are gonna dump all the money on TV. That’s an air war. We can win with a ground war. I am asking you to please send money to the following groups 3/6
Financially support @BlackVotersMtr@NewGAProject and @GA_STANDUP. Yes, there are many other groups there. But I have personally worked with these groups. I estimate they will need $4M for a massive ground game to target OUR PEOPLE. 4/6
I am NOT playing, folks. The @GOP will flood Georgia with $50M to get that fool @HerschelWalker in. We must have a sustained, aggressive Black voter strategy that begins TODAY to secure a @ReverendWarnock win. We cannot take off ONE DAY between now and Dec. 6. 5/6
This is no time for whining and complaining. Now is the time for organizing, strategizing and mobilizing. If @ReverendWarnock@SenatorWarnock wins, he’s there for the next SIX YEARS. This is time for us to GO HARD. It’s time to #BringTheFunk in Georgia! 6/6

#BlackTwitter, why give Elon $8 a month? We have six shows on the @BlkStarNetwork. Three shows in development. We want to launch 5 more next year. I am asking for $50 a year. That’s 4.19 a month; 13 cents a day. HALF of what Elon wants! Give at RolandMartinUnfiltered.com! 1/6
Since launching four years ago, 30,000 people have joined the @BlkStarNetwork#BringTheFunk Fan Club. WE can’t keep saying we want and need Black news if WE don’t fund it! I have NO millionaires/billionaires funding me. NO Black celebs cutting big checks. But we do the work! 2/6
Hey @MeghanMcCain, this really is a silly question you pose, and it’s one that’s based on having no understanding of the long-term impact of politics. I’m from Texas and am still registered there. @BetoORourke’s run for the US Senate did more to help Dems down ballot than 1/5
Even @BarackObama in 2008 and 2012. It’s easy to sit in Arizona @MeghanMcCain and suggest that @BetoORourke running is a waste of time & money, but you literally have no clue about the impact it has had for voter mobilization and down ballot fundraising. Same for 2/5
@staceyabrams. Don’t believe me @MeghanMcCain? Listen to former Texas State Sen. And now Harris County Commissioner @RodneyEllis. Go to the 53-minute mark. He fully explains the value of @BetoORourke running. 3/5
You can always count on dumb ass Boyce “Clout Chasin’” Watkins to run his mouth. Not only is he a failed political commentator, he even was a failure getting tenure. Sp @drboycewatkins1 let’s go. We had TWO choices in 2020: Biden or Trump. Who did YOU vote for? Come on,
Punk. 1/6
You mention Black wealth decreasing. Why, @drboycewatkins1? Was it the collapse of the housing market? That was under George W. Bush, right? Is he a Dem or a Republican? We lost 53% of Black wealth. Black homeownership was at its highest under Clinton. Is he Dem or GOP? 2/6
This has been a crazy, busy week. I was in Georgia Monday and Tuesday for @SenatorWarnock@ReverendWarnock race, and had a lot going on. But I did want to speak on these right wingers who took aim at two Black journalists in the last week, but especially @TiffanyDCross. 1/10
The attacks on @TiffanyDCross by @megynkelly and Tiff & @JoyAnnReid by @TuckerCarlson in the past week is evidence that Tiffany is successfully hitting her mark. Tiffany is hitting the right wingers with the same ferociousness they are accustomed to dishing, but not taking. 2/10
If you look at the right wing media, they LOVE to go on the attack. But they HATE IT when someone fights back. Why did @BillOReilly despise @KeithOlbermann? Because Keith HIT BACK. He didn’t cower into a corner. Well, Tiffany is the same way. She ain’t backing down. 3/10
So this clueless wonder has an attitude because I called her out for LYING, then she wants to get sensitive. It’s abundantly clear that Demetra needs Hooked on Phonics as a Christmas gift because she never bothered to read the damn bill. She just sounds like a new fool. 1/4
Y’all notice how @demetrakaye wants to slam Dems, but knows damn well the @GOP doesn’t fight white supremacy. Who refused to back the @JamaalBowmanNY anti-white supremacy bill after the Buffalo massacre? The @GOP. Who opposed ridding the military of white supremacists? GOP. 2/4
So tell me @demetrakaye, why aren’t you able to read? Y’all always got smoke for Dems - and I light them up when necessary - but y’all NEVER a word to say about the evil of the @GOP in not supporting Black people? So yea, I’ll put YOU on blast, Sista. 3/4
Ok. I REALLY need @KillerMike to explain this. He says @GovKemp had “an effective week” with Black people. How? What’s the context? What did he do? Where did he go? @staceyabrams has gone to EVERY COUNTY in Georgia. Why should she follow him around? WHAT DID HE DO? 1/5
What did @GovKemp say to Black people this week @KillerMike? I know for a fact that @staceyabrams did events with African Americans this week. She literally met with Black business owners. The problem with this statement to @cthagod is that it lack DETAILS. 2/5
Also, I would like to ask @KillerMike what did @GovKemp actually say to Black people? What is the actual data and facts showing he has helped Black Georgians? My #RolandMartinUnfiltered is reaching out to @KillerMike to come on Monday’s show to explain. I’m perplexed. 3/5
