The Republican Party can NEVER AGAIN claim to be the party of patriotism, national security, fiscal responsibility, family values, morality, or American leadership on the world stage. (1)
Patriotism: @realDonaldTrump’s disgusting display of deference and subservience to @KremlinRussia_E Putin, combined with the myriad of @GOP senators prostrating themselves (on July 4th, no less) to Putin was a shameful display of treasonous behavior. (2)
Fiscal Responsibility: the #GOPTaxScam has proven to be a financial disaster; RAISING TAXES on the poor and middle class, increasing the deficit over $1 TRILLION, and depressing wages. Oh, corporate profits at an all time high (4)
Family Values: The current occupant of the WH, @realDonaldTrump has had 3 wives, multiple accusations of sexual assault, and DOCUMENTED PAYMENTS to two women he had affairs with WHILE his current wife @MELANIATRUMP was pregnant. But white “Evangelicals” Still support him. (5)
Morality: Current @HouseGOP member @Jim_Jordan, candidate for house leadership is accused of knowingly ignoring his wrestlers complaints of sexual assault by the team doctor #JoePaterno#PedophileEnabler (6)
American Leadership: the current illegitimate WH occupant @realDonaldTrump attempted to break up @NATO, invited criminal @KremlinRussia_E to join G7, got conned by toddler tyrant Kim Jung-un, violated the Iran Nuclear deal, & enacted ill-advised tariffs killing U.S. business (7)
Summary: The Republican Party has been complicit in the downfall of The United States of America 🇺🇸. It is imperative that the GOP is voted out at every level. #BlueWave#VotingMatters#BlueTsunami (End)
.@AshleyRParker. I disagree. There is no actual or perceived benefit in having #AxisSally@PressSec lie before reporters/tv audience. She lies nonstop and the majority of the @whca won’t push back. Even if they do, she doesn’t care. The lie gets broadcast. @KatyTurNBC (1)
The WH cadre of liars main goal is to introduce the lie into the narrative, knowing full well the lie will be amplified by @foxnews and @WeAreSinclair. If no one confronts the liar @presssec in “real time”, the lie gets out. (2)
In an ideal world all the journalists in the @whca would band together for one day pre press conference, decide on a topic for questions, and hammer her relentlessly to get a truthful answer. But the press values competition, and access over duty. (3)
#FridayFeeling Another school shooting. Another round of “thoughts and prayers”. “Mental illness”. “Too soon to talk about gun control” “arm the teachers”. Next mass shooting. Rinse and repeat. Fuck this. I wrote this in 2015 facebook.com/walter.broadna…. Still applies. (1)
But it won’t matter. The carnage will continue. @realDonaldTrump will offer some half-assed non empathetic statement written by one of his Alt-right staffers. @mike_pence will look “earnest” while lying. And the @NRA? gunrunner @OliverNorthNRA will call the victims terrorists
Looking for courageous action among the GOP? @SpeakerRyan? @marcorubio? @tedcruz? All taking @NRA (Russian Oligarchs) money. Don’t count on it.
On Syria: If there were a serious effort from this administration to stop Assad, strict financial sanctions should be placed on him AND Putin. Shut their access to their finances worldwide. Anything outside of Syria/Russia should be seized. Ban their oil worldwide @AliVelshi
Syria must be punished for gassing their population. But a telegraphed ignorant tweet from a man-baby blustering about missiles isn’t the answer. Coward #Chickenhawk@realDonaldTrump is making the situation worse.
Until the financial capability of Assad AND Putin are sanctioned, this uncontrolled criminal act will continue. @KremlinRussia_E must be sanctioned severely because he FUNDS Assad’s chemical warfare buzzfeed.com/alexcampbell/k…
