“Several key state officials said no one had warned them about the Russian scheme until the leaked memo from the...NSA, appeared in The Intercept in June 2017. To them, Winner's leak was a form of public service.” 2/ inquirer.com/philly/columni…
Ten days after the Interceot published the NSA report leaked by #RealityWinner, the Senate voted to limit Trump’s power to lift Russia sanctions. 3/ npr.org/2017/06/15/533…
That day, Trump had fired Comey who was investigating potential collusion between Trump’s advisors and Russia. 5/
Reality Winner tried to protect the American people. And she was right. We, the American people, deserved to know the extent of Russian interference in the 2016 election. This information had been wrongfully withheld from us. God knows what else they didn’t tell us. 6/
I endorse this message by @LuluFriesdat. #HandMarkedPaperBallots (with exception for voters with disabilities and those who prefer to mark their ballots with a touchscreen rather than a pen) is the way to go in New York and elsewhere. Touchscreens (such as BMDs) are too risky. 1/
Everyone should know this quote. There was never a “war on Christmas.” The Christian Right’s liberties were never under attack. They claimed otherwise as a ploy to position themselves to force their own extreme version of Christianity down the nation’s throat. #Christofascism 1/

Jackson Lahmeyer, who claims BLM was founded by “witchcraft-practicing lesbians,” founded Pastors for Trump last year. He is a close associate of Mike Flynn. The MAGA movement is saturated in Christo-fascism. #Christofascism 1/
3/ Lahmeyer held a Pastors for Trump event at Trump, Doral last month. The promotional graphic for the event had Mike Flynn & Roger Stone front and center.
Jenna Ellis is a dangerous Christo-fascist. #Christofascism 1/
In 2020, Doug Mastriano advisor Jenna Ellis, an attorney, used a “chopped up video to falsely suggest that election workers in Georgia had told observers to go home so that they could retrieve fake ballots from under a table.” 2/ buckscountybeacon.com/2022/11/united…

Harrisburg, PA’s Life Center Ministries is a part of Che Ahn’s ministry. Ahn is an Apostle in the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), which promotes dominionism, the idea that Christians have a Godly mandate to control all aspects of government & culture. #Christofascism 1/

“‘Some of their most fanatical supernatural beliefs have been mainstreamed into the maga movement, such as the notions that Democrats are demonic or engaged in witchcraft,’ Jennifer Cohn, an election-security advocate, told me.” #Christofascism 1/ newyorker.com/magazine/2022/…
