(1) I #resisted following the March for Our post-birth Lives but some of the photos are too good not to share. In this one, a proud American NRA member who happens to be black peacefully protests the idiocy. Arguably, he has more at stake than most of the kids marching.
(2) If given the chance, I can make a very strong case for African Americans and "people of color" benefiting from this administration more than other groups. But the Left isn't interested in hearing it and resorts immediately to the expired race card.
(3) As @Dloesch is constantly telling us, black males are one of the groups, if not the group, most affected by gun homicides, especially in certain large cities, that have coincidentally been held by Democrats for many decades, and are supposed gun free zones (aka killing zones)
(4) So the first photo in this thread immediately grabbed my attention: a black man standing up to disinformed Leftist marchers: peaceful, reasonable, courteous & determined to protect his God given & Constitution-affirmed right to personal & national self defense. Thank you Sir.
(5) My dear, the best way to protect kids is WITH guns.
ICYMI, the school safety laws passed in the omnibus spending bill this week will see large numbers of kids now protected at school by trained armed adults. Thank you @KyleKashuv@senorrinhatch & @realDonaldTrump.
(6) In the hands of bad guys and gals, they do. Which is why a majority of Americans want good guys and gals to have them. You're welcome.
(7) The MSM photographer was probably trying to make some kind of point about empty school buses parked near AF1 in Florida today. Large vehicles are routinely parked around venues that protectees visit. #RadicalLiberalTerrorism using guns is an ever present danger.
(8) That's fine sweetie, no one ever talked about forcing anyone to be armed. That's the kind of thing that national socialist regimes do. Right after taking away the guns of citizens, for their "safety." Teachers should be willing to learn basic history.
(9) An example of 2A protecting 1A. Isn't it great to live in a country where people are free to express their views in public, to a Police officer, without being arrested like in the UK, where gun rights were lost & people in 2018 are jailed for exercising free speech.
(10) Studies show that #TDS reduces cognitive ability. Sad!
BTW, every politician has make up done before appearing on TV. And?
(11) Thoughts*
BTW, thoughts and prayers do help good people feel comforted and supported by others. Biologically, we are social animals. #ScienceMatters
(12) I like existing law too. Fun fact: while you were preparing for this march earlier in the week, Republicans were pushing for the law signed yesterday by POTUS, that strengthens background checks considerably & would've prevented #SutherlandSprings and #Parkland. Welcome.
(13) Columbine, Newtown, Parkland. Yes, like most other mass shootings, these would have been prevented if the laws that Republicans got passed this week had been in place. Conversely, no Democrat proposals would have prevented them. Reading is hard, I know.
(14) I don't know. It depends on how long Democrats keep beating the dead horse of hatred toward political opponents, and how soon we can get things like constitutional carry, better mental health laws & #DrainTheSwamp of people like Scott Israel.
(16) Well, we DO ban certain people from society for a time by imprisoning them when they commit offenses like murder. Your teachers should have taught you about things like nuance, critical thinking, and reading about history. But they were padding their pension scheme instead.
(17) "Only a sh1thole country would make kids march for their lives." "if we can ban peanuts in schools surely we can ban guns." Weird how in the sh1thole countries the only people with guns are violent criminals & the state, isn't it?
(18) Don't worry, that will be quite easy to do.
(19) In the case of people who vote Democrat, all of it.
(20) You want to know how many kids the NRA has killed today? The answer is the same as my nickname for Barry, ie Zero.
(21) California teachers of the year.
That explains a lot, actually.
(22) One of these signs claims we can't buy tide pods in America. I suspect that's not the case, but if you want to know why we might restrict the sale of tide pods, the inane slogans on these signs might give you a clue.
(23) "Arm teachers with resources not guns."
We did, but you spent them on over-priced bureaucrat salaries, political bribes, organizing teacher union participation in Democrat campaigns, and forcing unwitting minors to stand in the cold with Leftist political signs.
(24) In that case, you better get your parents to enrol you in a school that's properly protected, & maybe move to a county that doesn't vote for criminals like Scott Israel.
I could do this all day... their assertions are so easy to counter.
(2) Brett M. Kavanaugh will soon be the 102nd Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the USA. He has earned this highest honor throughout his life, inspired by his trailblazing mother, Judge Martha Kavanaugh.
His title for these few hours is Associate Justice Designate.
(3) This statement from the Supreme Court explains the two ceremonies:
(2) This WaPo reporter is incorrect about the vote being "scheduled for" Saturday. The earliest time a vote COULD be held is Saturday pm. There's no reason not to hold it on Sun/Mon IF we need Daines. I think we won't. Read my 5 tweets about him here:
(1) A directory of my Kavanaugh threads since July 9, 2018.
I never planned more than a couple of threads about him this year but, I shoulda known the Dems would try to destroy whoever was the nominee this time.
(2) Like Democrats, I'd already decided how I felt about him before his nomination was announced. I live-tweeted the announcement, which was a great event in itself.
(3) I followed Kavanaugh's progress over the summer and on September 22nd, I finally wrote a thread about the preparations for the all-important hearing on September 27th. It covers the hearing before the next thread started the day after.
(2) Mitch laughing to himself about how absurd it is that he has to push his way through the crowd of reporters on 9/25/18.
(3) Sen Grassley is 85 years old. (Democrats have senators around that age, too.)
Today he had to hold onto a Capitol Police officer to reduce the risk of a reporter knocking him over. This has to stop. Senators must return to being able to walk around freely at work.
(2) First Lady Melania Trump is a natural in this important role.
She's one of those women whose face lights up whenever she is around children. God Bless our great First Lady.
👠🇺🇸
(3) FLOTUS left Joint Base Andrews in her trademark high heels and arrived in Ghana wearing practical flats. She still looks sensational, whatever she happens to wear!
(2) Cloture in the Senate is a procedural step that you can learn more about at the link below. The senate.gov website is the best resource for learning about Senate procedure and a lot more. Same for house.gov.
(3) Watching live Senate floor proceedings is boring as hell, as they pass bills for naming Post Offices, & so on. But every now & then, they confirm a SCOTUS judge. And this time, they will affirm our great #BillOfRights#DueProcess & the hard-won #RuleOfLaw. Seriously. 🇺🇸🦅
