Listen to this fascinating interview on how divided our country was over the Vietnam War, with campus protests polarizing. Worth listening to for historical context npr.org/2024/04/29/119…

The threat to democracy is greater than Trump. Our Founding Father's made painful compromises to establish the Constitution🧵
James Madison, the Father of the Constitution, feared two Senators for every state would give too much power to smaller states, thwarting the will of the majority. He was right.
"A resident of Wyoming has 68 times the representation in the Senate as does a resident of California, the largest state by population. A state gets less representation in the Senate the more it attracts new residents." nytimes.com/2023/11/21/opi…

Russia uses our own weaknesses against us, to entrench their weaponized corruption. That's how they build power and take over countries from within, like in Georgia🧵
Corruption is America's biggest weakness and threatens our national security. Take, for instance, the Act 22 tax loophole that lets rich Americans buy up land in Puerto Rico to avoid paying federal taxes.

Yes, this exists.
The Act 22 tax loophole is based on Republican “trickle down theory,” but the locals call it gentrification and tax dodging. It exploded the housing crisis in Puerto Rico, driving up rent 600%. The island is now three times poorer than Mississippi, the poorest state.

Meet Paul Weyrich, one of the architects that turned the Republican Party into a Christian nationalist battering ram attempting to overthrow our democracy Image
Weyrich is a co-founder of several far-right groups, including The Heritage Foundation that leads Project 2025, a plan to mass-purge the government, destroy all checks and balances, turn the FBI/DOJ into Trump's personal security forces, and much, much more
Anne Nelson (@anelsona), the author of The Shadow Network, provided this must-read explainer on Project 2025 and how it plans to turn America into a Christian nationalist dictatorship under Trump, the strongman the religious right has long wanted washingtonspectator.org/project-2025-t…

Digging into Speaker Johnson--a staunch evangelical, and the other MAGA Christian nationalists blocking aid to Ukraine in the House, I discovered that Ukraine plays a role in their demented "end times" world view 🧵
Mike Johnson is a staunch evangelical. He was featured in a German documentary on taking his daughter to a purity ball where she signed a pledge to never have sex before marriage. Purity balls are seen as dehumanizing to young girls and women abcnews.go.com/US/speaker-mik…
Mike Johnson explained that his worldview is the bible. Evangelicals take the bible as fact, including creationism (the Earth was created by God in 6 days) and the end times prophecies Image

What's life like in Orban's Hungary, the most corrupt country in the EU? Miserable, especially if you're a child (high malnutrition rates), a young adult, a woman, LGBTQ+ person and ally, a refugee, and anyone with an open mind🧵
According to a recent study, Hungary is the most corrupt country in the EU, a trend that accelerated under Orban politico.eu/article/hungar…
Transparency International: "The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) is the most widely used global corruption ranking in the world. It measures how corrupt each country’s public sector is perceived to be, according to experts." Let's look at Hungary's CPI. transparency.org/en/news/how-cp…

Remember this shocking story from the 2016 election? The Trump campaign gutted Ukraine aid in the official RNC platform. Today this is mainstream for the GOP, with McConnell folding on Ukraine aid. This is catastrophic for the US and the world🧵 npr.org/2017/12/04/568…
The recent transformation of the GOP into the Party of Putin began gradually, with only a few in Congress, like former Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, who the Kremlin considered an asset, according to the FBI nytimes.com/2017/11/21/us/…
In 2018, current House Speaker Mike Johnson took tens of thousands of dollars in dark money campaign donations linked to a Russian oligarch close to Putin who was part of the larger Kremlin operation exposed in the Mueller Report newsweek.com/house-speaker-…
