“We must always defend the only Democracy in the Middle East”

This is Entisar Hijaze, she’s a 23 year old teacher from Nazareth.

Late last night Entisar’s home was raided and she was blindfolded, handcuffed and arrested for the grave crime of sharing a TikTok memory. Image
I’m not kidding. Entisar was arrested and is being held in prison for at least 3 days bc she shared a memory on TikTok yesterday from 1 year ago.

According to National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir this video is evidence of Entisar “celebrating Hamas’ attack”
According to the asshats who run our govt, democracy is when fat elected slobs like Ben-Gvir take innocent songs like Charlie Puth’s “Betty Boop,” rename it to lie about the lyrics and then order his private army of goons to conduct midnight raids on the homes of school teachers bc they use that song in one of their TikTok videos.Image
Here’s the lyrics to the song Ben-Gvir and the Israeli police say is inciting violence. Image

Entisar’s **entire** TikTok is filled with nothing but upbeat, positive content, teaching children about animals.

Only an absolute psychopath could have looked at her page and thought this woman was anything but a sweet school teacher.
But in some ways that’s really the whole point of stunts like this from Ben-Gvir, isn’t it?

This is just his way of reminding every Arab in Israel that it doesn’t matter how “perfect” they are: they’re never safe, they should never get comfortable.
This is what your tax dollars are funding.

This is what the Zionist politicians who run our government want to send American boys to fight and die for.

This is Democracy in the Middle East. Image
Yes, a very important point. Entisar Hijaze is an Israeli citizen.
This woman is being held under Israel’s “administrative detention” policy.

Israel is holding over 3,000 prisoners being administrative detention.

These people get no charges, no trial and no sentencing. They are held as long as Israel feels like it with no rights whatsoever.

You would know that if you’d stop drinking the kool aid The Five pours in your cup every evening.

⚡️Election 2024🧵: Voter Fraud

Part I: The Curious Case of Ozzie Myers

Remember that time Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of sex trafficking children to… no one? That was crazy, huh? Well the case of Ozzie Myers is kinda like that except with election fraud.

Settle in friends and let me tell you a story about how a former congressman turned felon turned political consultant was caught and convicted of rigging the Democrat primary in 3 consecutive cycles and yet not a single one of his clients has ever been named or exposed… until now.
Michael Joseph Myers, aka Michael Ozzie Myers, is somewhat of a prodigal son of South Philadelphia. Nominated by the Dem Party of PA to fill the vacancy in PA’s congressional delegation that opened on the death of Bill Barrett in 1976 Image
Ozzie was ousted from Congress just 4 years later after getting caught on camera accepting a $50,000 bribe from an undercover FBI informant in what later became known as the ABSCAM scandal.

Seeing lots of talk about Mike Johnson accepting $95,000 from AIPAC prior to his push for the Israel military aid bill.

And while yes it’s true that he took that money, I can assure you that the $500,000 his JFC accepted from rabid Zionist Keith Rabois and the $677,000 it accepted from dispensationalist Tim Dunn played a much greater role in his decision making than that paltry $95k from AIPAC.Image
Image
After all, how else would Johnson pay his $300,000-$525,000/month “travel” expenses?
Image
Image
Certain expenses yes, but that’s only if you want to fly coach with the rubes.

Now that Mike is Speaker of the House, he’s taking private jets 💅

Remember that time 5 vehicles rented by the Biden family over Thanksgiving weekend burst into flames just hours after the Secret Service returned them to Hertz and the entire mainstream media treated folks who found this wildly suspicious as “conspiracy theorists”?

And then like 3 days later the entire incident was memory holed?Image
Doesn’t surprise me at all. They shut it down REAL quick.

Image
They said it was a faulty battery in the Ford Expedition that was under recall from May, 2022.

Obviously there’s a couple things wrong with this excuse:

1. It’s illegal to rent out cars subject to recalls. The idea that Hertz would rent a vehicle under recall out to the President of the United States is even more absurd.

2. All 5 of the Secret Service vehicles were destroyed but not any other ones on the lot.

3. The CCTV footage of the lot, which is what alerted security to the fires to begin with, subsequently went “missing.”

⚡️Campaign Finance🧵: Adam Kinzinger

Have you ever wondered what becomes of socially awkward politicians with no marketable skills, aside from crying on cue, when they are gerrymandered out of public office?

Better yet, do you ever wonder what happens to all the leftover campaign $$ they bilked out of pussy-hat wearing cat ladies in the name of saving our Democracy™?

If the answer is yes, this one’s for you!
Prior to finding fame in the J6 fallout, the most remarkable thing about Mr. Kinzinger was just how unremarkable his congressional career had been.

Despite representing the reddest district in IL Kinzinger prided himself on being a bipartisan stooge at every turn.
He co-authored a few pieces of legislation, notably the 2016 Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act, aimed at “stoping Russian interference into our elections” but that’s about it.

⚡️Campaign Finance🧵: Campaign Committees

If you want to follow the money in politics you have to know all the places to look 👀

A crash course in campaign committees you probably didn’t even know existed 👇
One common misconception abt campaign finance is that the Citizens United ruling allows the rich to give as much💰as they want to politicians for their campaigns. This is false.

Campaign contribution limits are still firmly in place & are capped @ $6,600 total for the 2024 cycle
So how do our corrupt politicians get around that? You already know about ghost donors, but allow me to introduce you to the perfectly legal world of “Campaign Committes.”

First up: Joint Fundraising Committees aka JFC(s)

You know what I find super impressive?! The fact that @AdamSchiff was able to raise over $31 million for his Senate campaign in just 13 months despite the fact that 65% of his donors report being unemployed.

This, after he just finished raising $23.6 million for his 2022 House race where, again, 64% of his donors reported being unemployed.

Serious question? Why does an 11 term Congressman in a D+23 district need to raise $23.6 million from mostly unemployed Americans… and then spend over $17 million to win reelection in a race where all the other candidates combined raised less than $200,000?Image
You’ll notice it says $18.2 million in disbursements but that number includes $175 k in refunds & another million in donations to other campaigns. Yes, that’s right, Schiff gave less than 5% of what he raised away to help other candidates.

With this kind of ludicrously wasteful campaign spending on himself, you’d be forgiven for mistaking him for a Republican!Image
Not according to his filings. His 2022 filings say his principle campaign only took in $504k in PAC $ and just 11% of his total raised came from donations >$2,000.

No, it appears our man Adam is a true man of the people… King of the “small dollar donor,” you could say! 😏
