Before Hartzell Gray even announced his campaign for Congress in Missouri’s 4th District, he got a DM from AIPAC. He said no. Now he’s running on universal healthcare, guaranteed housing, a living wage, and a freedom budget. Here's the full interview: youtu.be/BT7I1KG9-ts?...

Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning. I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

Trump going on national television and essentially saying that we just annexed Venezuela and are going to steal its most precious natural resource and will kidnap any Venezuelan leader who disagrees may be the craziest presidential address of my lifetime

Illegally going into Venezuela and seizing Maduro, sets precedent for Putin to go into Ukraine and seize Vladimir Zelinsky and Xi Jinping to oust Lai Ching-te of Taiwan.

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

⚠️This is the Jimmy Kimmel monologue that got his show pulled. Not hate. Not celebration of death. Just the truth: Republicans rushed to blame the left before any facts about the shooter or motive were known. Keep sharing it. Spread the truth.

Gerrymandering is a form of voter suppression. Voters in gerrymandered states find out quickly that their vote doesn’t count toward their representation, so they become apathetic.

How Hitler seized power: 1. Create a crisis. 2. Demonize opponents. 3. Declare a state of emergency. 4. Undermine elections. 5. Make the rule of law irrelevant. 6. Rule by decree. If America falls it will be because of the people who didn’t pay attention.

Everything he says about deportation camps on military bases is spot on—and alarming. But don’t get thrown off by the name Blackwater. It’s still out there—rebranded. Blackwater became Xe in 2009, then Academi in 2011, before merging into Constellis in 2014. The name changed but the op lives on. 🧵
