At the risk of being called a party pooper, I'd like to remind #TheResistance that: 1. #TaxScamBill if anything GOP may now try to shove faster now, suppository style; 2. #NetNeutrality & #NationalMonuments are still in danger; 3. #infrastructure spending & many state services
have been cut to the bone; 4.#CorruptionMustDie & so does #nepotism, but both alive & well; 5. #NazisInAmerica & other hate group rampant, & there is no #GunControlNow or even serious discussion of it; 6. #StateDepartment is being decimated & deserted by many career ppl & that is

THRD 1. Even stretching it, as McConnell when refusing 2appoint Merritt Garland 2SCOTUS usatoday.com/story/news/pol… , or when FBI could have more exhaustively & timely investigated Anita Hill’s complaint against Clarence Thomas npr.org/2018/09/23/650… or Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s
2. against Brett Kavanaugh vox.com/policy-and-pol… , or allowing things like misconstruing one’s future actions (as might be predicted by past legal opinions and rulings), say declaring that Roe is established law to then overturn it washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/… )—suppose following
3. established procedure one were to appoint nine people, for life, to determine whether works of art are genuine or fakes, with very little recourse—except securing a hard-to-get pro-democracy majority in government—to remove them from their posts in case of abuses of power.

1. America seems to have suddenly forgotten SCOTUS may be on its way to turn women into breeding vessels. of course, other problems exist. A. Bcs of one megalomaniac lunatic, world economy is a shambles, Ukraine is a shambles, inflation is through the roof, food scarcity is
2. beginning to bite, and all the other pending problems (worldwide tyrannical drift, climate change, world pollution, deforestation, famines & so on) continue. We just don’t seem able to worry abt all of them at once. B. Bcs of 5 megalomaniac lunatic dominionists in SCROTUS
3. America is abt to turn women into breeding vessels, w/o rights, at a phenomenal cost msnbc.com/ali-velshi/wat… & newyorker.com/business/curre… to them, to USA & to the world. If they succeed, LGBTQIA rights, interracial marriages, religious freedoms, all could get 2d chopping block

1/ @POTUS @vonderleyen @eucopresident @EmmanuelMacron @Bundeskanzler
@10DowningStreet @NATO @jensstoltenberg U all praise the Ukraine, its people’s heroism, its importance as a bulwark in defending an international world order predicated on deterrence & diplomacy. While everyone Image
2/ in the West celebrates the incredible miscalculation Putin made and how effective the sanctions might be, Ukrainians are being massacred and the country reduced to piles of smoldering rubble. U say u will try 2give them more weapons (now it’s harder bcs u waited 2long, BTW) &
3/hope sanctions take full effect (now that takes longer 4same reason). Meantime RU is decimating UA & committing war crimes w/impunity. U say u won’t send troops into UA 2avoid WWIII. How do u know that not sending troops & letting Putin/Lukashenka turn UA into a new Somalia

Thread: On #Covid_19 #Covid quality of care, correct me if I’m wrong. 1/The Pfizer-Biontech vaccine (PBV) protects 2abt 94.5% of the recipients. It also protects ppl 50+ older 4a period similar 2younger. The Moderna vaccine (MV) provides abt 94% protection, but 4a seemingly
2/ shorter (how short?) period 4 50+ older recipients. The Astra-Zeneca vaccine (AZV) provides 70% or so protection all ages. PBV requires -70ºC refrigeration 2point of dilution, dilution within 5 days & delivery within 5 hours of dilution. MV can be kept at just -20ºC, hence far

THREAD: 1/Trump is purely transactional. He’s also broke. Oligarchs want the international community weakened so they can operate unconstrained by international laws. Russia is a mafia state where government, oligarchs and mafia are often indistinguishable from one another.
2/So, GOP’s endgame might be getting rich by allowing Trump to infiltrate the entire apparatus of US security to sell it to Putin, in exchange for enough money to take him like a fat annoying Snowden. Donald’s endgame, aside from pocketing a chunk of all donations below $8K for
3/his “recount” may be selling everything he can to Putin from US security, in exchange for getting rich, while having enough time to destroy, or falsify documents or outright create alternative ones out of thin air. This would leave Biden not only with a country crippled by

Thread. 1/The assumption that GOP has been inexplicably behaving stems fm assuming USA enemies are countries. However, if one were 2consider oligarchs (both foreign & domestic) thrive in an international context where institutions are we weakened by internal division, corruption
2/refusal 2b part of international organizations (see Paris Accord, WHO, NATO , ICJ at Hague & so on) that clamp down on tax evasion, organized crime & so on, one begins 2understand why GOP continues by & large 2destabilize US by refusing 2concede & acting like Trump sycophants
3/Deripaska is both Russian AND an oligarch, a club where Koch & so are members. He who pays 2elect politicians has leverage 2have them do anything not shown 2b illegal. Destroying USA might not be the objective then, but weakening international community by creating chaos in USA
