WE NEED 4 SEATS TO FLIP THE SENATE. JOSH TUREK SHOULD BE ONE OF THEM. I was researching Josh and came across one of his signature issues: Right to Repair. I had no idea how important this was. Most people in big cities probably don’t either. 🧵
Schiff: "He waited until he became president. Why did he wait to bring this $10b lawsuit? He waited so he would have the power of the presidency to leverage the IRS and DOJ to make him more money!"
Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."
Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

1/ Six rich Texans gave $100M to a group called Texans for Lawsuit Reform. That 💰 built a brand new court system where judges are not elected, they are appointed by governor, specifically so corporations never have to face a jury of regular Texans again. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
I’m sure everyone has heard about the fires in Washington State. They didn’t vote for Trump. So I highly doubt they are going to get any federal assistance. He’s not everyone’s president. 🔄 Fires on more than 250,000 acres of Washington state prompt evacuations - www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

ICE IS KILLING PEOPLE IN THE SHADOWS. Prisciliano Trejo Ricano begged for a doctor. He became the 50th person to die in ICE custody. Anne Frank wasn’t shot; she died of neglect in a camp. ICE uses the same playbook: murder by medical neglect. ICE DETENTION CENTERS ARE DEATH CAMPS.

We’ve been saying this for a while now many of the people being targeted are just fishermen. Evidence now supports that the United States has killed individuals who were not involved in drug trafficking during its “counternarcotics interdiction operations” in the Caribbean and Pacific.
