This is flying under the radar in the chaos: A Constitution of States Convention under Article V.

If just 6 more states sign on, it’ll be a Constitutional Crisis like we’ve never seen. 1/

Today, a total of 28 states have signed on to hold a Convention of States under Article V.

A 2/3 majority (or 34 states) are required to make this happen. 2/

Very few know a Convention of States is backed by both the Koch’s and Mercer’s powerful special interests and money.

Well, Hillary warned us... 3/

In November 2017, Wisconsin voted to become the 28th state to call for an Article V Constitution of States. Again, only 6 more are needed for a Constitutional convention. 4/

Yesterday, the Mississippi state House overwhelmingly passed legislation for a Convention of States. It now moves to the state’s senate. If passed, only 5 more states are needed to sign on for a Constitutional Convention. 4/

Other states in immediate danger of passing resolutions for an Article V Convention of States:

🔺Kentucky
🔺Iowa
🔺Minnesota
🔺Maryland
🔺South Carolina
🔺Pennsylvania

Call your state legislators, show up for hearings & protest. 5/

States can & do rescind participation in the Article V Convention of States. Check your state & contact your State legislators. Ask them to block any attempt that will lead to a Convention of States or to rescind current applications. 7/

#NoConCon
Nothing in the Constitution prevents a convention from setting its own agenda. This would be a disaster for American democracy. If the GOP is allowed to rewrite the Constitution, all bets are off.

🔹Call your state legislators
🔹Show up for hearings
🔹Protest

As the govt continues to ignore the crisis in Puerto Rico after #Maria, I urge those affected to prepare for #Florence

It’s a Cat 4-5 & flooding is predicted.

Here’s how to prepare & what to do if you run out of bottled water after.

Please RT this thread— it could save a life.
2/
 First—listen to your state & local news. EVACUATE if you’re mandated. Don’t leave your pets behind.

I worked on the rescue efforts after Harvey & Irma. I spoke to people on dying phones who didn’t evacuate. They required rescue from rooftops.
#Florence
3/
 If you’re not mandated to evacuate for #HurricaneFlorence, see @NOAA’s list of numbers and supplies you‘ll need
👉nhc.noaa.gov/prepare/ready.…

@Firechatapp is a web app & works when cell towers go down between phones.

Prepare & have 1 gallon/day water supply for 7 days minimum.

55 years ago today, August 28, 1963 in WA DC:

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”—Martin Luther King jr

 63 years ago today on August 28, 1955, 14 year old Emmett Till was kidnapped in the middle of night in Mississippi, brutally beaten, murdered & thrown in a river for cat-calling a white woman at a corner store. His killers were acquitted in less than 1 hour.
#BlackLivesMatter
3/
 In 2016, the woman who accused Emmett Till said she had lied in her statements, in court, under oath.
👉vanityfair.com/news/2017/01/h…

52 years later a sign was placed on the spot where Emmett Till’s body was found. It’s been replaced 3 times since for vandalism.

I’m a runner. Mollie Tibbett’s story terrifies me.

Running is such an integral part of me: it’s my passion, it’s empowering & a Huge part of my self care these days
The fact that it’s being politicized loses the lesson: it’s NOT who murdered her, it’s the WHY.
2/
 Although men empathize, they’ll never know the ways women/victims must think to protect themselves:

🔹Empty parking lots & elevators after hours
🔹At some places of employment, we need after hour escorts to our cars or the bus
🔹It’s a big reason why we use restrooms in packs
3/
 Some safety tips I’ve had to adopt to go on a simple run:

🔹I Never run in the same place from one week to the next, or the same time of day– I mix it up
🔹I Never wear my long hair in a ponytail - too easy to grab
🔹My dog comes with me on all runs– so dogs must be allowed

For 2 years,Trump has called Russian interference a hoax & its investigation a witch hunt.
He eliminated the National Security coordinator position at the NSC.

Russia’s attack was an act of war but Trump& regime attended the NSC election security meeting for less than 30 minutes
Trump admin has no strategy for election security, & no one's in charge
👉nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna8…

Despite Russian interference and $380M in federal aid
🔹22 states opted out of upgrading voting machines
🔹42 states won’t have new voting equipment by Nov
👉politico.com/story/2018/07/…
Here’s what we can do:

Call your SOS:
🔹Hold them accountable for your state’s election security

Call your reps📲202-224-3121
Ask they pass:
🔹the bipartisan #DETERAct bill for midterms
🔹the #PAVEAct which calls for paper ballots & risk limited audits

Everyday as news comes out that supports the fact that we had a fraudulent election & have an #IllegitimatePresident, the MSM keeps pushing 1 thing: Votes weren’t changed.

This is NOT true.

The votes of MILLIONS were changed bc they were thrown off Russian hacked voter rolls.
The WH is now censoring the free press. They posted a fake version of the #TreasonSummit video & deleted where Putin said he wanted Trump to win & he helped.

The evidence is overwhelming: we have an #IllegitimatePresident installed by Putin & Russia.

👉
Midterms are already actively being hacked by Russia.

We must Demand Congress restore our democratic elections.

If we can mobilize in hours Trump potentially firing Mueller, we can organize an ongoing protest every evening & weekends in every major city.

🔹Power grids
🔹Aviation
