🧵Something big happened yesterday that you might have missed. I did.

@RepPressley & @SenMarkey re-introduced legislation to END QUALIFIED IMMUNITY. Let’s support them on this fight. We can’t get justice for those brutalized & killed by police when police are protected from… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
Qualified immunity protections have been expanded. It’s time for it to end.
#EndQualifiedImmunity
What are cops afraid of? If they are doing their jobs properly, justly they have nothing to fear.

Qualified immunity protections have been abused.
#EndQualifiedImmunity
Your tax dollars pay for police misconduct while they are protected from financial liability.
#EndQualifiedImmunity
Police are free to violate our civil rights while protected by qualified immunity. As a stand alone bill to end qualified immunity, we have a real chance this time.
#EndQualifiedImmunity
More on the bill that will #EndQualifiedImmunity , restore necessary civil rights protections for us and accountability for police officers. Please support @RepPressley & @SenMarkey on this. 🙏🏽

🧵 Meanwhile, in Oklahoma…

Gazette publisher Bruce Willingham left a voice activated recorder in the McCurtain County official’s (including the Sheriff) meeting because he suspected they were illegally doing county business after the public meeting ended. What he uncovered was… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Read the Sheriff’s response then ponder this…

McCurtain County officials, including the Sheriff, were just caught on tape, discussing a murder plot of journalist & hanging Black people. The same Black people that are subject to the Sheriff’s authority. What could go wrong?… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
The publisher of the McCurtain Gazette, Bruce Willingham and his son, also a reporter, were advised to temporarily leave town.

Gov Greg Abbott is about to pardon a man who shot a BLM protester. A man who clearly had racist motives. But that’s okay with Abbott.

📌 Much of the 2nd Amendment culture can be linked to racism. Did you know that the 2A was meant to stop slave insurrections? Now you do.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

🧵 If you thought 2016 or 2020 was bad, pay attention to this. 7.3 million views on YouTube.

What’s actually being said is ridiculous so it probably wouldn’t fool you, but Biden’s voice sounds legit — it’s a DEEP FAKE.

What if the voice said something that sounded more… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Here’s a DEEP FAKE of the President mocking the trans community that went viral. Still a little too primitive to be convincing. But technology with AI is getting better.

Still not convinced you could be fooled? Continue…
Deep fakes can be photos too with stunning realism. This was funny and we knew it wasn’t legit because of real-time news.

🧵 There once was a kid who had to take 3 busses to get home from school. His mom was a single parent who had to work, so she couldn’t pick him up after school. He got home after dark, then his long night of homework began. Long day, long night.

His mom finally had the idea that her son should take only one bus to the public library, do his homework and she would pick him up from there. He usually finished his homework before she arrived so he would wander the aisles and pick out books to read.

So many books and they…
One day he found books about the history of fashion design. He was artistic so he started to sketch his version of what was in the books and soon fell in love with the world of fashion. Then he discovered books on entrepreneurship and starting a business.

It’s rare that we would agree with big pharma but here we are. This is good!

🚨Senior execs of more than 250 pharmaceutical & biotech companies just issued a scorching condemnation of a ruling by a federal judge that invalidated FDA approval of Mifepristone & call for reversal.
@cwebbonline @PaulDereume Judge Kacsmaryk won't use the term "fetus", insisting on "unborn human", and believes abortion is murder. In law school, nobody taught him that this is a secular country of laws, not subject to his oppressive religious doctrine. Kacsmaryk should be impeached. He's a theocrat.

When it comes down to it Republicans, including the Christian right, have no real moral compass. It’s all a scam to get folks to follow along in their own quest for power. Cult shit!

Hear me out & follow the receipts.

Republicans tore apart Bill Clinton for a blowjob & he was impeached for lying about it. Most regular folk believe Clinton lied to save himself the public humiliation and to save his marriage. Those same Republicans are all good with Trump illegally paying Stormy Daniels using… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Hillary Clinton is vilified by the right to this day for her emails on a private server & using a personal email account but Republicans had no problem with Trump’s kids (on staff) and multiple people in the Trump administration using their personal email accounts and personal… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
