Email I received today from @drkyle4congress , Democratic candidate for #NC07 {Short thread}
"Hi Friends,
My commitment to serve our great nation in Congress is based in my love of this country and an understanding of our history... 1/6
"Multiple generations of my family have served in the Armed Forces, from World War II to the present. Growing up near Wright Patterson Air Force Base, I spent countless hours at the United States Air Force Museum learning about the history of our nation’s military... 2/6
"I recognize the profound impact that the Cold War has had on generations in this country.
What we saw on display at the Helsinki Summit was an incompetent President without knowledge and recognition of these dangerous chapters in US history... 3/6
"Our safety requires leaders who support coherent, consistent policies that reject authoritarianism, strengthen alliances, and protect our constitutionally guaranteed freedoms... 4/6
"Leaders on both sides of the aisle agree that ceding to foreign interests and interference is no way to Keep Us Safe. This is a bipartisan issue and should not be divisive... 5/6
"I will stand with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to Preserve Our Democracy and Keep Us Safe. I need your support to make this happen!"

Here is @SenatorBurr's press release on the revocation of @JohnBrennan's security clearance.
I take issue with these words. I take issue with the senator from #NorthCarolina.
While I still have freedom of speech guaranteed by the 1st Amendment to the Constitution, I take issue.
#NorthCarolina We have the 6 amendments to the Constitutional Amendments the Repugs in the #NCGA hastily put on the ballot.
Please vote NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, & NO
Let's not let them get away with this 💩
Are you with me? If so, re-tweet the hell out of it and tell your neighbors 2
Let me do further research on that one. It does seem to have substance.
However, I am livid about how the Republicans in the #NCGA have slammed us with 6 amendments. @WayneGoodwinNC can you elaborate more on #VictimsRights amendment?
I am to understand that the #VictimsRight amendment is a keeper.
"Victims Bill Of Rights has a lot of merit. Read up on Marsy's Law For NC. All it does is give victims of violent crime the same rights as the criminals...

This has been a day. I have chosen not to dwell in the negativity of it and I hope this helps you too. 1/5
From Thich Nhat Hanh: "The Buddha advises us to create the feeling of joy and happiness in order to nourish ourselves before we deal with the painful feelings..."

"Just as a surgeon may judge that a patient is too weak to undergo surgery, and recommend that the patient first get some rest and nourishment so she can bear the surgery, so we need to strengthen our foundation of joy and happiness before focusing on our suffering..."

Apparently, the Trump Congress, @SenateGOP thinks it's going to cut him a new one. But I have a feeling it's going to backfire on those old farts.
