1. PERSONAL THREAD: I had the WILDEST night in the fetid swamps of Hillary hate. These people are PETRIFIED of her. I'll explain...
(1/10)
2. On a relatively quiet #LaborDay weekend night, Hillary Clinton endorsed @Verrit, the media platform I cofounded.
3. Within seconds, traffic to the site surged and we began getting thousands of signups. Then all hell broke loose. cnet.com/au/news/hillar…
4. @Verrit was hit with a sophisticated and persistent denial-of-service attack. Our tech team worked for three hours to restore the site.
5. Once the Hillary-bashers got wind of @Verrit, we were inundated with a wave of hate as extreme as ANYTHING we saw during the campaign.
6. There are now threads on message boards plotting about taking @Verrit down. A Wikipedia page was set up with fabricated information.
7. FACT:
PEOPLE ARE STILL TERRIFIED OF HILLARY.
PEOPLE STILL WANT TO DESTROY HILLARY.
PEOPLE WANT TO SILENCE ANYONE WHO SUPPORTS HER.
8. The Hillary-hating frenzy over @Verrit's launch is proof of why it needs to exist: THERE IS NO SANCTUARY IN THE MEDIA FOR HILLARY VOTERS.
9. If you've had it with harassment, smears, lies, bullying and demonization, please join us and help grow @Verrit. verrit.com/sixty-five-poi…
10. We're not going to be silenced. Hillary is not going to be erased. The haters can't overcome 65.8 million good, patriotic Americans.

GUT CHECK:

The sitting U.S. president appears to be a Kremlin agent.

The Republican Party leadership is aiding and abetting him.

The right-wing media is covering for them.

Flag-waving Republican voters are perfectly fine with treason.

THREAD (1/3): #BERNIE vs #BETO

The 2020 Dem primary is going to be intense one way or the other. The stakes are too high for it not to be. Heading into 2019, we'll see lots of early maneuvering and skirmishes. That's fine, AS LONG AS THEY ARE NOT CHARACTER ATTACKS.
THREAD (2/3): #BERNIE vs #BETO

A character attack directly impugns the honesty, integrity, and/or ethics of a candidate. Examples: Candidate X is a liar. Candidate Y is immoral. An issue debate is perfectly acceptable, i.e. Candidate Z is wrong on health care, the economy, etc.
THREAD (3/3): #BERNIE vs #BETO

Neither #BernieSanders nor #BetoORourke have announced if they are running. Supporters of each should feel free to battle out the issues, BUT AVOID CHARACTER ATTACKS. We cannot afford to give needless ammunition to the GOP.

I'm watching Trump, Pelosi, and Schumer bicker about the budget and the wall. This spectacle is beneath the dignity of this country.
Of course I agree with the Dem position, but the fact that we're here is just sad.
For anyone misconstruing my tweet, I'm agreeing with what Nancy Pelosi said: "I don’t think we should have a debate in front of the press on this." The fact that Trump got schooled is a good thing. But the reality is that none of us should want that kind of spectacle.

#Thread I was triggered to write this by a status I saw over the weekend which was figuratively calling people who aren't entrepreneurs fools.
You must have seen similar ones like it. The one where they will claim you're building somebody else's dreams if you work 8-4 or 9-5.
The earlier you people who peddle entrepreneurship realised that not everyone is cut out for the business world, the better it would be for everybody.
You think I'm not living the life I dreamt of just because I answer to a boss? *Just let people do what they love, man.*
How difficult is that for you to understand?

If you're truly an entrepreneur in Nigeria and you sell real goods and services, you can't paint entrepreneurship ( in Nigeria) as exciting, attractive and something only foolish people will not venture into.

Twitter may not be the most effective place to solicit for this, but if you (or, more likely, your parents, grandparents, great grandparents) did forced labor during WW2 for ghettos under German control, please read this. #Thread
Back in 1997 there was a landmark case in Germany that determined that people who'd labored in the Lodz Ghetto would get credit toward German Social Security for that work.
In 2002, Germany codified it and said that forced laborers in any ghetto under German control were eligible. At the time (2000-2005), my full time job was as a case manager to Holocaust survivors and Nazi Victims. I did stuff like take them to the doctor, pluck their chin

PRESS RELEASE BY PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI
CAMPAIGN ORGANIZATION

IF THE SYSTEM WERE TO BE WORKING BEFORE PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI TOOK OVER IN 2015, ALHAJI ATIKU ABUBAKAR WOULD BE IN JAIL BY NOW INSTEAD OF CONTESTING FOR THE PRESIDENCY.

#Thread
Our attention has been drawn to a statement credited to the Presidential Candidate of @OfficialPDPNig, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar disputing the assertion by @MBuhari that the system in Nigeria allows corruption to thrive because the system is slow in tackling corruption. - @fkeyamo
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar further blamed President Muhammadu Buhari for perceived failure in addressing some instances of ‘corrupt practices’ under his watch. - @fkeyamo

It's #LaborDay weekend and all, so I'm gonna do a thread about a job listing I just saw.

I think it's depressing and on the dystopian side that this looks normal to lots of people. Let's unpack it together...

Have a song to read it with:

[1/15]
"We have 2 different opportunities- both in fast growing companies with lots of room for advancement! Hard workers rewarded! I need about 50 people. General Labor to start at $11-$12 an hour. Four shifts available starting 5:30, 6:30, 7:00 and 3:00(pm). Overtime available" [2/15]
This was posted by an individual, not an organizational account. There's a phone number to call, and that's it. There's no company name. There's no location mentioned. There is implication that this is some kind of job agency person with 2 separate requests to hire staff.[3/15]

YOU WILL HAVE MORE THAN ONE IDEA | I spoke to a young man recently about a business deal. He was more concerned about the money he would make than the opportunities he would gain. #Thread #Ideas #Entrepreneurship #Career
Sometimes when I talk to entrepreneurs, they seem obsessed with people stealing their ideas. They assume they will have only one good idea in life. They think a single deal will be their only source of prosperity.
Employees do the same. They hold on to jobs desperately. Some embezzle funds because they are not confident of another chance to "hammer".
