It's time to talk some about the conjunction of two pieces of news: the Biden team's decision to go all-in on North Carolina & the latest LDS Church membership figures. 🧵

washingtonpost.com/elections/2023… Background- the "never-Trump" LDS vote of 2016 split in two in 2020:

-Mod. indies & GOPers appalled by MAGA voted Biden-Harris (Jeff Flake, Evan McMullin, lots of LDS women)

-Far-right cons who had worried in '16 Tr*mp would be moderate (Mike Lee, etc)

We should talk about the weird GOP astroturfing around whales 🐳 and wind 💨 that's going on in New Jersey.

First - yes, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Sean Hannity are part of this. Screenshot of Hannity tweet... While it would be easy to roll our eyes at MTG claiming "wind farms are killing whales," this is getting respectability-washed by other GOP congressmen - notably Chris Smith and Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey.
