Leftist critique of POTUS - started with Trump, now on Biden. Bad things are still bad when Dems do them. Tracking how "nothing would fundamentally change."

🧵 THREAD: Joe and Kamala aren't the only members of the Biden administration who enable and empower racist cops.

Here's a brief look at Pete Buttigieg's similarly terrible track record on policing - it's even worse than you might think. 1/13 Image After Mayor Pete lied about demoting South Bend’s first black police chief for exposing racism in the force, he fired those calling for an investigation.

Buttigieg's inner circle then loaned money to the racist cops while the black folks they arrested remained in jail. 2/13 ImageImage

🧵 THREAD: Here are just a few of the many ways Kamala Harris has enabled and exacerbated police brutality during her career as "Top Cop." 1/11 Aside from ramping up police encounters in the first place by opposing marijuana legalization, etc., Kamala specifically opposed independently investigating police murders and the statewide implementation of body cameras. 2/11 Image

THREAD: Student debt is a racial justice issue.

To oppose FULL cancellation is to support preserving the racist wealth gap between black and white Americans. 🧵 1/6 Image Tuition fees were added to colleges and universities that used to be free specifically to keep nonwhite students down and out. And it's worked! 2/6 Image

THREAD: Today marks 200 days since Biden became President. Here is every promise he has broken so far. 1/ Biden promised he would send a third stimulus check equal to $2,000.

You can argue his presidency’s the “less evil” thus far, but “Biden is even worse than Trump” should not be a controversial statement.

Biden has literally bombed, jailed, and deported hundreds of thousands more people than Trump in his career. It’s just a fact. This tweet might hold our record for the most Biden Bros telling on themselves in the replies.

If your political engagement consists entirely of following Brooklyn Dad since 2016, just say that!

🍦 LISTEN UP, JACK 🍦

Today is Joe Biden's 100th day as President with a majority in both the House and Senate.

Here is the most comprehensive thread on how, like Trump, he has failed us thus far. ⤵️ 1/ Despite being dragged into office on the back of last summer's protests led by black activists, Biden has largely ignored #BlackLivesMatter and their policy demands since their inauguration. 2/

To celebrate 4/20, here is a thread on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' record on the War on Drugs, and what they can do now to repair the damage they've caused.

Biden once said, “Whenever people hear the words ‘drugs’ and ‘crime,’ I want them to think ‘Joe Biden.’” Here's why. 1/ Biden worked with leading segregationist Strom Thurmond to architect the disastrous War on Drugs, creating:

- the racist disparity between crack and cocaine
- mandatory sentencing
- cancellation of parole and reduction of sentences for good behavior
