Watergate whistleblower, Deep Throat, was the final nail in the coffin for Nixon. MARTHA MITCHELL hammered in the FIRST, only to be gaslit, discredited & publicly shamed by Nixon & his aides.

🔥Easy or no, we must EACH be prepared to #DoTheRightThing🔥 allthatsinteresting.com/martha-mitchel…
Mitchell was ridiculed for calls to Washington press, her accusations of corruption in the Nixon Administration, & her charges that she was a “political prisoner” held captive in a hotel & drugged. Nixon admin encouraged questions of her sanity. In the end, she was proven correct
To this day, psychologists use the phrase “Martha Mitchell Effect” to refer to someone whose descriptions of real experiences are incorrectly labeled as 'delusions'.

We see a resurgence of this today, courtesy of constant gaslighting by Trump & his admin.
theguardian.com/science/2013/a…
Mitchell died alone & destitute at 57, a rabid conservative who still DID THE RIGHT THING.

At her death, NY Times observed, “We didn’t listen to Martha Mitchell and we paid for it.”

Many are IGNORED TODAY regarding Trump, his admin, Kavanaugh

...and again, we will pay for it.

RED FLAG🚩Letter linked below was sent 7/24 to @ChuckGrassley & @SenFeinstein.
It references clerks/others who want to talk (tho fearing harassment) abt Kavanaugh & mentor, Judge Kosinski re: sexual & other harassment in SF appeals court where Kav clerked assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4895…
"First, if Judge Kavanaugh states that he never heard or observed anything that would suggest that Judge Kozinski behaved inappropriately, he is either lying or so willfully blind to judicial misconduct that he should not be appointed. Everyone knew..."
How hellish was it to clerk for Kozinski as a woman? Read Heidi Bond’s account of her experience in Kozinski’s chambers. She was repeatedly summoned to 'fix a problem with his computer', only to be shown porno & asked “does this kind of thing turn you on?” courtneymilan.com/metoo/kozinski…

🔥Most effective line of attack Dems have against GOP candidates for governor/House/Senate in the 20 states below?🔥

...they're all part of a lawsuit that allows insurance companies to STOP covering constituents w/preexisting medical conditions.

To them, GOP says "DIE mad."
States SPECIFICALLY ASKED Judge Reed O’Connor to strike down parts of the law that prohibit health insurance companies from refusing to cover people w/ pre-existing health conditions.

WE MUST SHOW (R) VOTERS THE GOP DOESN'T CARE IF THEY DIE OR GO BROKE.

GOP voters must be made to understand that their leaders (including GOP candidates) are so determined to dismantle Obamacare they are perfectly willing to WATCH THEIR VOTERS DIE and/or lose every single penny the voters worked so hard for. politi.co/2kUc0UE

Regarding the Presidential Alert...

🛑It's NOT AN 'ACTUAL EMERGENCY'. 🛑 It's not NEW.

Anti-Obama folks made the SAME mistake in 2013.

Allowing a POTUS to send unblockable nationwide alerts was part of the WARN Act of 2006 under BUSH. Please read the history in this THREAD:
Pres Bush signed the Warning Alert Response & Network Act in 2006. It provided for the Wireless Emergency Alert’s creation, & made it mandatory for wireless co's participating to make presidential alerts unblockable on cells & other devices using cell data bit.ly/2MAggEd
The Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) was established in 2008 pursuant to the WARN Act & became operational in 2012. Per FCC data, system's been used more than 33,000 times to warn public of dangerous weather, missing children, & other critical situations via alerts on cell phones.

🙅‍♀️NO ONE SHOULD NEED POLITICS TO DECIDE HOW🙅‍♂️
🙅‍♂️TO FEEL ABOUT MISSING AND ABUSED CHILDREN!🙅‍♀️

THREAD: Federal officials verbally, physically, & sexually abusing many (& then *losing* other) immigrant children

WHAT CAN WE DO?? Read on:

#WhereAreTheChildren
First, to get a complete and painful understanding of the WIDESPREAD ABUSE of these children, read this report based on thousands of government documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. It’s a HARD read. ☹
aclusandiego.org/aclu-obtains-d…
Chris Hayes also put out an important summary of what’s happening with Federal agents systematically taking children away from parents at the border (even children as young as a year old).
