We must continue hammering our Congressional Reps with a simple demand: #ProtectOurVote2/4 Uncovering multiple flaws and voting vulnerabilities, researchers at MIT and UofM concluded OMNIBALLOT from Democracy Live can easily be hacked, personal data mined, and votes altered w/out detection!

Castigate… vilify… demonize… then dehumanize! We have your political playbook, Donald Trump, and it reads like a page out of another fascist leader's in modern history. #ProtectImmigrants#WeAreHumans 1/8
Like Benito Mussolini, your weaponizing of language is not merely a metaphor but a calculated attempt to reframe an issue-immigration-while ramping up fear, manipulating perceptions, broadcasting, and then unleashing a crisis to justify extreme and inhumane border policies. 2/8
My initial reading of this article left me in a reactionary mode: WTF? We wouldn’t be in this cesspool of #tRumpToxicity had folks at NYT & other media done their jobs. I ran the gamut of how we arrived here:
🚨 extreme partisanship nyti.ms/2RLlg02
✅ Russian meddling
🚨 gerrymandering
✅ voter apathy
🚨 under-representation of women in gov’t
✅ failure of education system (I teach middle school)
🚨 income inequality
✅ shitty and corrupt #GOP
🚨 Jill Stein
✅ F*cks & Friends at Fox
🚨 evangelical neighbor
and so on...
