The concerning thing about today’s political climate is there are people in this country who want authoritarianism. They want it so they can “own the libs”, but don’t realize that all these restrictions will apply to them too. No healthcare. No Social Security. No clean air. 1/
No clean water. No teaching authentic history. No accountability for polluters. But guns. Lots of guns. And oil wells and fracking. Higher taxes for the poor and the middle class. More tax cuts for the rich. No #Democracy. This is what #November22 is all about. 2/
No matter how hard they make it, we must find a way to get everyone to the polls. This could very well be our last chance to save the promise of the USA. We are not perfect, but we strive for a more perfect union. It’s up to us. #VoteBlueIn22 #SaveDemocracy. END

1/🧵Russia's invasion of Ukraine has prompted a massive humanitarian crisis. For many the feeling of helplessness is overwhelming 💔.

Here are some great ways to help (some not even requiring any money).

Please retweet & share 🇺🇦🌻💙💛#Ukraine #StandWithUkraine #HelpUkraine Image
2/🧵Ways to help include donating to Ukraine via a registered charitable organization, donating money /goods / points / miles, fundraising, volunteering, attending rallies, contacting MPs, fighting disinformation online, etc. 🇺🇦💪#Ukraine #HelpUkraine
3/🧵Money is still the most effective gift.

Most charities prefer donations of cash due to issues with donated goods (logistical hurdles, custom regulations, transport costs, lacking capacity of nonprofit teams to sort the goods, carbon footprint, etc.). 💲🇺🇦#GiveMoney #Ukraine Image

ALABAMA. Banned Curbside voting, shortened time to apply for a mail-in ballot & threatens felony prosecution to local officials who supply ballot without a request
And, Secretary of State & 3 probate judges (who require no formal training) will conduct audit after 2022 election.
ARIZONA
Shifted election litigation control from Secretary of State (currently a DEM) to AG (currently GOP).
Another threatens local officials w/ felony for providing mail ballots to voters unless they request.
Also made it harder to stay on PEVL (Permanent Early Voting List)

C'mere #GenZ I be needing you to teach me some #21stCentury colloquial slang language so I can impress my grandsons. The other day my 16 year old complained that his parents were too strict and I said, "It do be like that sometimes, Homie." He said, "You speak my language? Cool!" Image
#DoBeDoBeDo two hundred thousand words in the English language, and more every day, we'll never live long enough to learn them all!
I might use some of this new lingo in tweets too, but only if I'm talking to #GenZ because others may not understand the references. I do want to talk to #GenZ because they are the ones who saved us from a second term for #TheHateYam & they must do it again. We must #PassTheTorch

#FreedomHouse और #V_Dem की रिर्पोटों ने मोदी सरकार की लोकतंत्र विरोधी करतूतों को देश दुनिया में उजागर कर दीया है।

#वी_डेम की डेमॉक्रेसी रिपोर्ट लोकतंत्र को 5 पैमानों पर मापती है।
*चुनावी प्रक्रिया कैसी है।
*देश में उदारता कितनी है।
*लोकतंत्र में लोगों की भागीदारी कितनी है।
1/4
*विचार-विमर्श का माहौल कैसा है।
और
*सरकार का रुख़ सबके प्रति समान है या नहीं।
ये रिपोर्ट लोकतंत्र को उसकी पूरी व्यावहारिक जटिलता के साथ देखती है ,केवल चुनाव होने को लोकतंत्र नहीं माना जा सकता, देश लोकतांत्रिक तरीके से चल रहा है या नहीं, यह देखा जाता है।
2/4
#SpeakUpForDemocracy
और #फ्रीडम_हाउस रिपोर्ट इस धारणा से संचालित होती है कि सभी लोगों के लिए स्वतंत्रता उदार लोकतांत्रिक समाजों में सबसे अच्छी तरह से हासिल की जाती है, और यह आकलन करती है कि सरकार के दावों की तुलना में रोज़मर्रा की ज़िंदगी में लोग लोकतांत्रिक अधिकारों का कितना इस्तेमाल कर पाते है।

The report of the @CampaigningAPPG is being launched in parliament this afternoon. APPG chair, @SKinnock, started off by explaining how electoral campaign transparency is bigger than Brexit, we need to guarantee our electoral rules are enforced and the process is transparent Image
SK outlined the key three areas considered by the APPG and around which its 20 recommendations were made: 1. Transparency; 2. Deterrence (e.g. ensuring fines are no longer seen as the "cost of doing business"); 3. Monitoring.
.@SKinnock said the APPG will now be working to build support in parliament for the report's findings and recommendations, and lobby the government so that action will be taken.

The death of the GOP

Is the @GOP dead? It is no longer a political party, now it is a religion, a cult, a group of irrational Trump worshipers trying to create a new gospel to convince everyone about Trump's greatness, divinity, and purity. ↓
For them, it doesn't matter what Trump says or does, they will always come out with some excuse, they will always come up with an argument (no matter how stupid it is) to defend their new deity. ↓
Those who defend Trump are clearing the path to perpetuate an autocrat in power. They are threatening democracy, endangering the US constitution, the American people and the entire World. ↓

Trump’s flagrant denial of Russia’s attacking on our election sys. is nothing less than aiding/abetting Putin’s to destroy the US.
Donald’s using psychological projection by using the word “COUP”, marching the US towards a revolution in order to save him from Justice! #AMJoy
Why else do you think he keeps talking about “ Overthrew, Coup, Witchhunt, The press is the enemy of the people and his fondness for Robert E. Lee”.
Fondness for traders dictators and autocrats! Just like Robert Mueller, Donald Trump is giving you a roadmap to who he is! #AMJoy
With Donald Trump’s flagrant flouting of the rule of law can anybody guarantee he would not attempt a coup in order to stay in power? Why else would he be stacking the courts and massaging our generals? Donald’s whole demeanor is I am the Boss/Dictator and you’re the peon! #AMJoy

2/"For years, President Trump has used Twitter as his go-to public relations weapon, mounting a barrage of attacks on celebrities and then political rivals even after advisers warned he could be creating legal problems for himself.
Those concerns now turn out to be well founded.
