I went to bed feeling betrayed--perhaps even enraged. I woke up, still feeling betrayed--but resolved. I still believe #AnitaHill. I still believe #ChristineBlaseyFord I still believe #survivors #women They have knocked us down, but not out. I still believe in the power of us.
Our perpetrators tried to stifle our voices too--and, WE ARE NOT GOING BACK. We will not be silenced or moved. Today, survivors will keep organizing, sharing our painful and hard truths until the very last hour, and then we'll take our fight to the ballot box.
Survivors matter and we do vote--and run for office too! We have been ignored, but not silenced #midterms A vote to support #Kavanaugh confirms more than one man, to the highest court in the land, you are also confirming #privilege #entitlement #injustice
Sortant de mon après-midi de khôlles et de cours et après avoir regardé le témoignage de #BlaseyFord, je vous le dis comme je le pense: #Kavanaugh est fini. Et ce tweet du très renseigné #Sherman sur #Trump me conforte.
2) Pourquoi #Kavanaugh semble être "mort à l'arrivée" pour la nomination? Car comment imaginer que 50 sénateurs puissent passer outre 1 témoignage précis et si émouvant donné déjà bien avant le choix de #Trump? Le "100% sûre"est insurmontable SAUF SI...washingtonpost.com/politics/kavan…
3)...la seule chance de #Kavanaugh est que les républicains du Sénat choisissent 1 immolation collective ultime pour verrouiller la #CourSuprême au prix d'1 désastre séculaire auprès de l'électorat féminin blanc aux #midterms...Mais ce suicide politique aurait 2 conditions...
Meet Tim Graboski, aka whiterook6. He works for AggregateIQ as software developer. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because they helped #CambridgeAnalytica during the 2016 election. And apparently they’re still interested in our elections. #Midterms2018 #osint #infosec
We know that part of the seed data for the models used by CA came from Facebook surveys users filled in as part of an app. Well doesn’t this look familiar....this is a project called Campaign Pillar aka Check-In. “AIQ” is plainly visible. As are the targeted election questions. 
Well this little gem comes to us courtesy of Tim’s GitHub repository, found here : github.com/whiterook6/che… Currently available to the public (cloned in case it comes down).
#SundayMotivation #BrettKavanaugh #PlannedParenthood A brief note of Deepest Appreciation to all who have my my thread/today’s work along with help from from @1776HotLips @RealBasedBlonde so may others (Bro @WhoWolfe 🤓) My work is to piece to together a puzzle. #TeamWork #MAGA
@1776HotLips Take the Deepest Appreciation from my Heart ❤️..you unconditional support and constant love is greatly appreciated!! Shout out to Mary 💥🙋🏼♀️🤓😊💘 #BFF and #FriendsFest
Thank you @RealBasedBlonde .. threads are never done in isolation. Everything I do requires a teamwork approach. In fact, you know I don’t do threads 😂😂 but the #MidTerms are critical and we need each other more than ever. TY for picking up the slack.. #TeamTrump #LoveYa 🤓
Sur le dossier #CoréeduNord, #Trump continue de se bercer d'illusions mensongères- et bientôt perdues?Oui, #KimJongUn est bien d'accord pour ce qu'énonce le président US...à condition que les #EtatsUnis fassent le 1er pas, c.a.d fassent 1 traité de paix pour la guerre de Corée.RT
2) Pour l'heure, la comédie se poursuit car les 3 protagonistes ont intérêt d'y jouer: avant les #midterms,#Trump DOIT entretenir le récit de négociations se poursuivant. #KimJongUn fait preuve de bonne volonté pour complaire à la Chine. Et le sud-coréen #Moon a son rapprochement
3) Depuis le début de ce dossier #CoréeduNord, 1 question par définition sans réponse: pourquoi #KimJongUn, instruit des précédents Kadhafi et Hussein, détruirait-il les armes nucléaires et les vecteurs que son régime a mis tant d'argent et de volonté à bâtir? Non sens.

Au vu des déclas de Conway et de l'histoire, #Trump et son staff auront posé 3 questions à #Kavanaugh: l'avez vous fait? Peut-il y avoir des preuves? Y a-t-il d'autres affaires ? La triple réponse fut nécessairement négative puisque la Maison Blanche a réaffirmé son soutien. RT+
2) Il faut bien comprendre le dilemme de la Maison Blanche et de #Trump: ils doivent être SÛRS que #Kavanaugh est propre, car s'il explose en vol face à cette accusation, ils ne pourront plus relancer 1 autre nomination avant les #midterms. Et perdraient 1 juge conservateur ultra
3) La Maison Blanche et #Trump font donc confiance à #Kavanaugh et au travail d'inspection préalable mené par l'avocat de la présidence, McGahn, dont Kavanaugh est le poulain. Mais on sait en France depuis #Cahuzac que le mensonge face à face avec 1 président n'est pas impossible
#Breaking BADABOUM de dernière heure. L'accusatrice du juge Kavanaugh, nominé de #Trump à la #CourSuprême, se dévoile. Elle s'appelle Christine Blasey Ford. Ce qu'elle décrit est 1 tentative de viol collectif. Et ses accusations sont beaucoup plus étayées. washingtonpost.com/investigations…
2) En pleine vague du #Metoo, cette accusation ici détaillée dans le @washingtonpost devrait ébranler le processus de confirmation de #Kavanaugh à la Cour Suprême, même relative à des faits remontant à 35 ans. MAIS 2 gros bémols...
Ca c'est 1 vraie "cagade" de #Trump, totalement incompréhensible et illisible en plein début de campagne des #midterms. En faisant du bilan humain abominable de #Maria à #PortoRico le produit d'1 théorie complotiste (ce serait les démocrates…), il franchit 1 ligne jaune...1/
Quand, comme hier, #Trump affirmait son mépris pour #PortoRico et son sous-développement,il pouvait séduire la frange identitaire blanche de son électorat cible. Mais là...pourquoi partir dans 1 telle controverse aussi indécente alors qu'il a 1 bon bilan économique à défendre? 2/

1) Problématique majeure à garder en tête d'ici les #midterms US. #Trump évoque ces aristocrates romains ralliés à la cause du "peuple" par opportunisme à la fin de la République et utilisant la fonction tribunicienne, d'où on exalte sa colère pour déstabiliser les institutions
2)...sauf que #Trump est 1 tribun exalté (et doué) ayant conquisl'exécutif qu'il entend faire fonctionner selon la seule vox populi, exprimée instantanément par le canal numérique. Et il est prêt à détruire toute institution qui "corsèterait", briderait cette volonté du peuple...
3) Il y a donc 1 tension croissante entre #Trump tribun aux paroles performatives (Make America Great Again, our country is doing great)et aux ordres impératifs ("tuez Bachar" sortie immédiates des traités) avec des institutions le contraignant à suivre des normes bureaucratiques
We must demand @SenateDems, @SenSchumer use #NoQuorum to delay #SCOTUS confirm. hearings.
Why?
> @WhiteHouse is witholding 100K pages on Kavanaugh's time in Bush WH. What are they hiding?
> New guilty plea in #Mueller probe 8/31. We must block confirmation b4 probe is complete.

How to fight this...
1. Call AND write yr senators every day, whether Republicans or Dems. Ask others to do the same. Demand there be no confirmation hearings before we see where the criminal probe of @realdonaldtrump leads.
call 202-224-3121 or text resist to 50409 - it's easy

Deeply anti-Warren piece that is highly critical & dismissive of her. It totally hand waves Sanders through.Warren has beaten Sanders in several polls,so is this a check on her momentum?

Think Elizabeth Warren And Bernie Sanders Are The Same? She Doesn’t. buzzfeed.com/rubycramer/eli…
As with coverage of Hillary Clinton in 2016, the verbiage here is to pit actual work, which Warren does, against Sanders' oeuvre of rhetorical flourish.
Warren is a worker bee, Sanders a gadfly.The false dichotomy of "socialism" when Sanders is not a true socialist feels forced.

I'm not sure what the function of this piece was other than to undermine the enthusiasm some are feeling about Warren and the work--in the Senate work--that she's been doing. Asserting that her battling Trump directly is meaningless is a bad take.
Also, it's not 2020.

The presenter sounds incredulous about the chant.

Seine Skandale holen ihn endlich ein: Donald #Trump wird von seinem Ex-Anwalt Michael #Cohen bezichtigt, mit ihm illegale Wahlkampffinanzierungen begangen zu haben. Ist das nun der Anfang vom Ende des US-Präsidenten? Nope. [THREAD] #CohenPleaDeal #TrumpRussia
To recap: #Cohen bekennt sich schuldig, dem Ex-Playmate Karen #McDougal und der Pornodarstellerin #StormyDaniels auf illegale Weise Schweigegeld gezahlt zu haben. „In coordination with and at the direction of [#Trump]" und „to influence the election“. huffingtonpost.de/entry/donald-t…
#Cohen impliziert #Trump also in seinen Verbrechen. Das ist extrem brisant – und gewagt. Denn zwar hat Cohen ein Tape, in dem er die Zahlungen mit Trump diskutiert. Doch das gibt nicht 100% Aufschluss darüber, ob Trump illegale Finanzierungen bewilligte. huffingtonpost.de/entry/ex-anwal…
THREAD: by now, many of you have seen posts or articles re: @defcon’s @VotingVillageDC, and the ease with which machines and websites were attacked and exploited. And now, THIS is happening....#unhackthevote #infosec #ElectionSecurity
For YEARS, advocates of election integrity have been pointing out these issues. This isn’t new. After 2000, the Help America Vote Act was passed to modernize our elections, first proposed by Robert Ney (R-OH). Signed into law by George W. Bush. So much for this theory:
At the same time, Bush’s @TheJusticeDept began an investigation into alleged #VoterFraud. Guess what it turned up? No masses of non-citizens voting, nothing that could come close to altering an election. nytimes.com/2007/04/12/was…

Every time you read a sensational news story/tweet/FB post/etc. attacking a Dem. candidate or an anti-authoritarianism activist, stop and ask yourself these questions:
1. Is it intended to pit us against each other?
2. Is it attempting to divide the Dem. vote?
3. Is it attacking an ally and/or the credibility of a major voice in the fight to defend democracy and the rule of law?
