Sexual assault is about power as all thinking peoples know.

Kavanaugh has power.

Dr. Ford does not.

Here you see the primary problem in our system.

A power structure that is abhorrently skewed to the already powerful.

Stay with me here, this one's a doozy.

I want you to think of a case about five years ago. In Florida a kid got drunk, slaughtered some folks on the side of the road and got slap on the wrist.

He claimed "afluenza," sayin' he was too RICH to understand what he'd done.

And it WORKED.

2/

pressherald.com/2013/12/13/_af…
He had rich parents, who on the state level had plenty of political influence. They had some real power. His parents hired expensive attorneys and experts, spent a bunch of money, and I assume favors, and he got off.

Paul Ryan’s super PAC is under fire for weaponizing @SpanbergerVA07’s private personal records from her service in the CIA and law enforcement.

She’s not the only candidate that needs your help facing lies from that same super PAC.

Let’s take a look👀
cnbc.com/2018/08/31/dem…
In Colorado, Paul Ryan’s super PAC came after @JasonCrowCO6.

REALITY CHECK: “Republicans know Jason Crow’s service with and for veterans is an asset, so they’re attacking it. If this is the best they’ve got, shame on them.”

In Maine, Paul Ryan’s super PAC came after @golden4congress.

His super PAC’s ad zooms in on Golden’s tattoo to “tie it to his politics” even though his tattoo pays tribute to his tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

A week ago I was tired and frustrated cause I was focusing on the wrong things. I was resisting but also thinking about things like why xyz didn't follow me or why they didn't RT me or do I make an impact

I took time to reflect and refocus. Here is what I learnt. /1
It's not about me stupid
It's about the children pulled away from families, 528 of whom are still not reunited and it is unclear if/when they will be reunited. #FamiliesBelongTogether #chi

For Me

The worse thing that has happened is what @SenateMajLdr has done to the Senate

Historically the Senate was designed to provide equal representation for each state 2 reps per state, A voice for the Minority option

This was done to promote bipartisanship

[Thread 1/2]
... Harry Reid did start this erosion. Now Mitch has really destroyed the principles of our founding documents

His BS with the Supreme Court, & disregarding the filibuster is very bad for Democracy especially in a time of hyper partisanship

2/3
Now more then ever we need the upper Chamber to embrace bipartisanship and oversight

Our democracy is being challenged like never before and the @GOP is allowing it to be eroded

Yesterday, you took @BlueWaveCS #COTD @ACampaNajjar from 12.8 to 14.6 followers. 🤯

#ThursdayThoughts #COTD is @Shapiro4FL16 in #FL16 w/4.4.

His opponent @VernBuchanan bought a $5M yacht THE SAME DAY he voted for the #TaxScam giving himself a $2.1 million windfall.

Still not convinced that our #COTD, @Shapiro4FL16, is running against a bad guy?
Okay.

That yacht Buchanan bought after passing the #taxscam?

A foreign bank floated him those funds.
As it was actively lobbying FOR the #TaxScam bill.

Good morning!

Our @BlueWavecs #COTD is @ACampaNajjar in #CA50

#CA50 is a traditionally super red district, but yesterday it was moved from "solid GOP" to "lean GOP" because incumbent GOP @Rep_Hunter was indicted yesterday for being an ass.

#WednesdayWisdom
#TakeItBack
Okay, @Rep_Hunter wasn't indicted for being an ass. I just ran out of space. What I meant to say was that @Rep_Hunter, the second guy to endorse Trump, stole $250k in campaign funds to do things like take his family to Italy and fly the family pet to DC. washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/…
Our @BlueWaveCS #COTD @ACampaNajjar is at 12.8k followers.

Think we can get him to 13.1?

I live in Indiana, where Joe Donnelly is up for re-election. The play right now from repubs is to hammer in how awesome Kavenaugh is, then either get Donnelly's vote, or to hammer HIM with a no vote come election time.

A commercial's been runnin'.

Let's dissect it shall we?

Brett rolled out of a SCOTUS clerkship right into Ken Starr's waiting arms, a low level repub legal attack dog right off the bat. A real sharp tack.

Kavanaugh's curious too, like when he wanted to know the details of Bill Clinton's sexual activities for the Starr Report. Because "family values."

I would like to add to this by saying if you have been out there @TheDemocrats it hasn’t been effective

If it’s not repeated it’s not news. 5 minutes of you against hours of Rudy because

The Republicans understanding propaganda
They understand they must strike for emotions

They USURPED the Presidency

What do an FBI arrest, a special prosecutor, insider trading, tax breaks spent on yachts, and not disclosing shady businesses all have in common?

It all stinks of Republican corruption.

Now that #NY27 GOP Rep. Chris Collins was arrested and indicted on insider trading, his seat in Congress is in play!

Your taxes HAVE been increased~ don’t mistake the little more back you got back~if you got any~ 2B lower taxes.

It was a con~ give you a little, take a lot~ after you’ve already voted.

They cut their own taxes ‘permanently’~they’re running the biggest deficit ever

@stucam7771
The con is~you won’t start paying til they’re gone.

The next Democrat Administration is going to be buried in unimaginably more debt.

Republicans run a deficit, the rich steal as much as they can~

Then they blame the Democrats for raising taxes loudly until they win again
Rinse, repeat ~ this time they stole a ridiculous amount more while 45 kept our attention ~

They’ve ran this con for decades. The money behind the GOP has had criminal tendencies ~ they’ve conned their base ~ 45 is just obvious about it.
