It's a good day to listen to #DemocracyInChains author, Professor Nancy MacLean- 2018

"The age of Trump has brought the forces of libertarianism into sharp focus. Get the diagnosis right, and learn to tune out the noise. " “Heritage Foundation (KOCH) saw much earlier than most people in the Country that Trump had a very realistic shot from it’s early internal poling, so that he knew which buttons to push with the Conservative base”.

@HeidiNBC Today's GOP is an arm of #CouncilForNationalPolicy & #KochNetwork.... including Governors, AG's & state legislators.

ps. Pence, a #CNP member is complicit.

This is how we got here... allowing #RightWing #CNP #KochNetwork (#DarkMoney) members to operate in the shadows and when caught, deny their complicity and/or normalize them.. We must stop giving them a pass.

FYI... Hogan is a #KochNetwork and #DarkMoney member. Same group responsible for trump's election, running the WH, GOP and for the agenda we're experiencing right now. tRump is their #TrojanHorse
Fact check! The #KochNetwork's vast network includes many faux bi-partisan orgs & think tanks. It's part of their "social integration" theory & "web of influence" used to mainstream their people & radical ideology.
PLEASE read up on them & learn to recognize their methods & non profits.

Are you taking notes? It's time for all of us to prepare and to "move on them like a bitch".

Don't wait for a leader... no one is coming. Pick up a sign, grab a friend... show up at your city's capitol or even stand at the end of your driveway.

Below is the beginning of a RWing (#Koch, #CNP) disinfo/messaging campaign.The point is to sow discontent...unfair taxation, gov. misusing taxpayer $, public ed syst. is failed experiment,etc.(similar to trump campaign themes) to stir public anger & speak to their base

Thread... These same talking points (from the article) will be echoed via RWing outlets like FOX, GOP officials at all levels & ultimately by "debate" from the press, academics... both sides.

Don't take the bait. THIS is really about the #KochNetwork & #CNP's attempt to shutter schools

@RepSwalwell Here's a thread with the Resistance orgs & actions that address the specific areas they (the Koch RWing) used to gain power. None of us can do it all... it's small, focused & consistent steps to a win (that's how it worked!)..

Thread 1/ @RepSwalwell There are steps we can take now to curb their power & protect Democracy. IF we're very focused & unified in our resolve & actions

- Secure Elections in States

- Stop #ConCon in states

- inform & engage our communities

- save Net Neutrality

2/ Resources & Citizen Action ⤵️

@kylegriffin1 This is a bold lie (GOP). ALL the KOCH RWing GOP members understand (and are complicit) exactly what's occurring. Why is the press taking the bait?
Most of WH staff, Cabinet, several agencies are Koch RW people. THEY brought us trump. #TrojanHorse huffpost.com/entry/koch-bro… @kylegriffin1 The WH, Cabinet & today's GOP are using strategic and coordinated messaging...and their outlets are amplifying it....then the MSM picks it up... headlines.
