🚀 Lula e aprovação no início de seu governo:

🏁Começou o 3º mandato com 65%
👍Tem hoje 53%

⏲️Em 2003 ele teve 77%

Mas nem o #Lula nem o Brasil de hoje são mais os mesmos!

Não fique ansioso com isso!

Vamos analisar o que contribuiu para essa mudança🧵 Image
2/ 📉 Nos últimos 10 anos, Brasil enfrentou recessão, desemprego e perda de confiança nos políticos. Discurso firme de reconstrução seria crucial, mas parece que faltou consistência. Image
3/ 🇺🇸 Obama recebeu país em crise e manteve aprovação de 60% nos 100 primeiros dias. Lula I e Obama I passavam expectativa positiva. Vamos comparar consistência na mensagem dos governos Obama I e Lula III. Image

As we learn about Stephen Miller's 1/6 testimony, keep in mind that the DC municipal permit for the rally at the Ellipse *specifically* denied permission for a march to the Capitol.

PRE-rally advertising included the word "march." That should have been confronted before 1/6.
Another key moment exposing TFG's criminal intent was that Pence's letter saying NO, was released (IIRC) on the morning of 1/6, before the Ellipse rally.

Obvious right then that Pence could not be intimidated to do TFG's bidding in this.

TFG continued to incite the "march."
The content of TFG's speech alone incriminates him, when you consider these matters that were public knowledge at the time.

A lot of the supposed bombshell revelations we're getting now were public knowledge.

The legal "plans" were circulating on Twitter in Dec. I saw them.

🧵1. There are a lot of political organizations out there and a lot of candidate endorsements. I co-founded @DemsWork4USA with @sumoh7 in 2017. We take a strategic approach to grassroots activism. We believe we need more money on the ground, not more money in ads. Democrats Work For America: Strategic Grassroots Activism de
2. Make no mistake - there is a grassroots army, and they are uniquely positioned to assess candidates and address gaps in the party infrastructure. Our goal is to provide a framework to leverage and maximize the power of on the ground activists - and translate it into wins.
3. We utilize a "grassroots up", multi-state, multi-cycle and longitudinal strategy to channel grassroots support toward candidates that will result in winning seats, retaining seats and building the bench. This is all critical to passing policy at the state and federal level.

Fully 35-40% of the US population has been propagandized into an alternate reality in which Trump (the greatest president ever) won the election but had it stolen by evil America-hating socialists (Dems), Deep State conspirators (courts and election officials) & RINO traitors 1/6
The creation of this alternate-reality clan took 30+ years: Right-wing talk radio in the 80s, Fox News in the 90s, Facebook in the 2000s, KGB-inspired psy ops from 2015-2020. The epistemically closure is so complete that those trapped in the info-bubble think it’s all real. 2/6
So now the question is: How do we (as a free democratic society) de-program 35-40% of the population to help them see they’ve effectively been brainwashed? There’s a decent research literature on de-programming, and it suggests the task will be difficult and multi-pronged. 3/6

Gov't of #Finland new foreign & security policy white paper is out!
(Finnish & Swedish versions too)

julkaisut.valtioneuvosto.fi/handle/10024/1…
I'll add somewhat random observations in the format: quote + quip in this thread.

The order should not be taken as signifying anything in terms of priorities of the report etc..
Shout out to @Ulkoministerio, who in their feed highlight continuity, predictability and long-term perspective as keys of Finnish foreign & security policy (F&SP) which is based on a human rights framework + coop on global challenges within int'l rules based order.

👏@IEA for publishing such a great work on #innovation #energy #climate
Here are my 6 takeways from this 400p document #Thread
Full @IEA document here 👉iea.org/reports/energy…
1. We can already cut global emissions by 55% with already commercially available technologies (i.e. early adoption + mature). But we also need to further develop technologies to get to #NetZero
2. Technologies for #buildings renovation and ligh-duty #transport are already largely there

This. 👇 We Dems are doing exactly what the GOP did in 2016 & look where that got them.
Now, we have the benefit of hindsight. We need to unite behind a single candidate who can win the purple/red districts & carry the African American/ Latino/working class/suburban mom votes.
It won't do us any good to win the presidency yet lose the House & fail to flip the Senate bc we all know now what a d*ck McConnell is.
He does the Koch's bidding.
We can't risk 4+ yrs of Trump, the statehouses, & judicial appts that will haunt us for the next 40 yrs. 👻
I like Bernie, Warren, Pete, & Amy. I admire Bloomberg's work w/Moms Demand & Everytown but I truly believe that only @JoeBiden can turn out the Obama coalition + the 'Never-Trumpers' who helped us retake the House in 2016.
In the 41 seats we flipped, Biden helped w/all of them.

Upset by Manafort verdict in the US? Mad at the alt-right coming back to San Francisco in May or by Brexit coming to the UK? Unsure about the future of Europe? Remember what happened to the world in the 1930s? Can we do anything? #YesWeCan 👇👇👇
Now is the time to take action. Here 👇is a concrete step. If you are in the US, watch, learn, like and share with others 👇. If you are an EU citizen, watch, like, share & make sure to vote 23--26 May 2019, to save the EU from the Russian mafia state and locally-bred extremists.
Putin's goal is the dissolution of NATO, dissolution and weakening of the EU and the subversion of the Western liberal democracies. The European Union Parliament in Putin's hands is a danger to the US and the whole world. Act now. facebook.com/Avaaz/videos/2…

Here is what Scotland can do: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️🇪🇺
EU nationals won't need much persuading this time and we already have all the tools to do it. Please ask them how Brexit impacts them and their lives, listen and empathise. Then sign them up to register to vote...
@euforindyscot has teamed up w/ @ScotIndepFound & @mail_aye and produced these Polish (circa 50% of nEU Scots are Polish!) & English language (20% of overall electorate dropped off register since 2014) flyers for the BIG Indy Kit (also includes 50 Voter Registration forms!)
Re: Polish flyers - The idea is that while you keep some Polish forms handy for campaigning on the ground, you identify and deposit some at key locations like delicatessens, churches and cultural groups. These are guides how to register to vote, which can be done online, too!

1. It's 2018 and time to get #backtowork doing everything we can to elect #Democrats to Congress. Nothing is more important in the battle against the authoritarian slide we've witnessed this past year. Our vote is our voice and our power.
2. We formed Democrats Work For America to fill the gaps in the Dem party infrastructure by engaging, registering, protecting and mobilizing voters and by supporting winnable candidates in winnable districts. We are a super pac for grassroots activists by grassroots activists.
3. With grassroots volunteers all over the country we have fostered collaboration between grassroots organizations and ground-level action to increase voter education and turnout. We have won nearly all our featured elections so far.
