1/ Who is to blame for America’s gun madness? The answer is simple sltrib.com/opinion/letter… "GOP politicians on the take, greed driven gun manufacturers without a heart or soul, #ALEC, the #KochNetwork and a small minority of truly sick #gun addicts all have blood on their hands"
2/ "When #Koch became a leader of #ALEC back in 1995, ALEC's publications proudly touted its #gun agenda and the #SecondAmendment right to bear arms, in contrast to it's recent attempts to distance itself from this agenda." prwatch.org/news/2012/05/1…
3/ In 2005, #NRA lobbyist Marion Hammer pushed the "Castle Doctrine" bill to create legal immunity for shooters claiming self-defense. It was "unanimously adopted by the private and public sector members at that meeting."

The bill came to be known as "Stand Your Ground" Image

#KochNetwork to back alternative to Trump after sitting out recent primaries washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/… resources include "a million grass-roots activists across all 50 states, data targeting technology known as i360, and the Latino outreach organization Libre"
My question: with an organization already set up in so many states, why support any other than their own candidate on the (#KochNetwork ) Stand Together Party ticket? AFP is already America's 3rd political party. washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/w…
"What do you call an organization that operates in multiple states, staffs up for elections, and does local endorsements for political campaigns? You call it a political party. And by that measure, the Koch brothers' AFP is the third-largest political party in the U.S."

"#ALEC’s proposed Free Speech in Higher Education Act debated by members this week would ban public universities from using bias reporting systems to prevent or punish “offensive” or “unwanted” speech by students, faculty, staff, or guests." exposedbycmd.org/2022/11/30/ale… #HigherEd Image
#ALEC’s FORUM Act "has passed in multiple states with the help of the hate group Alliance Defending Freedom, aims to address the manufactured free speech “crisis” being hyped by the Right, often by sending extremist provocateurs to speak at colleges and universities." #HigherEd Image
The real reason for the attack on libraries dailykos.com/stories/2022/1… This "has always been about keeping people uneducated and ignorant. Suppressing diverse ideas has always been the hallmark of conservatism, and free libraries stand in the way of their goal."

1/ Battle for Earth: The Shocking Extent of the Far-Right Influence Network – Part 7 pressenza.com/2022/11/battle… "their globalist course of free trade and free appropriation of the planet is about to destroy the very habitability of the Earth"

3/ "...(“the 1%” or the 0.01%) have spent some thirty years building and perfecting an extensive network of “think tanks” and media outlets to distort and manipulate public perception and opinion."

Republicans Want Teachers to Leave Public Education laprogressive.com/education-refo… Republicans are literally running a political platform on weakening teachers, schools and education because they need the poorly educated to make up their voting base.
1/ DeSantis, conservatives score more Florida school board wins politi.co/3Eg5YXN Moms for Liberty endorsed 12 for Florida school board and donated to campaigns. The 1776 PAC, which opposes critical race theory in schools, endorsed 49 candidates throughout 21 counties.
2/ Parental rights have been a key battle cry for DeSantis who pushed Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law, aka “Parental Rights in Education”.
Together with "School Choice" laws promoting charter schools, DeSantis is dictating what kids can learn, and where they can learn it. Image
