Thread

I'm supposed to be taking a break right now from Twitter. I was getting really frustrated by the Left, and the things they were saying about us, and more specifically about Ashi Babbitt. It seemed that once the vote happened, something clicked... the Left realized ⤵️

Pence now ruling from the chair that the Members of Congress sent to the gallery can't even ask how they can render objections if they're not on the floor.

Pause as the microphones don't work. This is not off to an inspiring start.

Reading off the president's name as "Donald J. Trump of the State of Florida." Queens, we hardly knew ye.

Now, Arizona. Pence recites (as with all the states) that this is the only certificate from the state authorities. Gosar & Cruz object.

Objection leads to groans and applause.

I've a few thoughts about Trump and how we got here, going to be a long thread

I've just finished @Mikel_Jollett excellent book Hollywood Park, can't recommend it highly enough (and his band album etc) In the book he describes growing up with a Narcissistic mother amongst other things.

When he describes how every single thing that happens was through the prism of how it effected her and how it made her feel reminded me of Trump. To start with Trump is deeply disturbed individual, he was brought up as a racist.

He's risen to power by the use of racism however I don't think that's why he's become what he is. He's exploited institutional racism to help himself feel better about himself.
I see institutional racism as a result of an exploitation of power.

The fact that some people have a genetic predisposition to higher level of pigmentation in their skin can never be a logical reason for bias. Due to the historical imbalance of power it is exploited to consolidate power and with it riches.

Twitter is a wasteland. Evidence...

How Patriots Get Played:

1. @KelemenCari reposts an image from @brettlewis to her followers that she did not fact check. Similar to mainstream media. Just get it out there, fact check later.

Democrats who are gloating, be careful. No one, not even you, can control the mob, yours, or "not yours." The mob is the mob; it's an irrational, unthinking, self-destructive, nihilistic force your party created and nurtured for over 50 years with your collectivist bullshit. 1/

NO one's hands are clean, and your party's least of all. You created Trump too. You pushed him, directed your media pals to push him, they made money with him in the headlines, and were happy to oblige. Did you think of the country, you who claim to be so "patriotic" today? 2/

You destroyed candidates who were decent human beings, enabled the candidacy of Trump for self-serving reasons that backfired, ironically b/c the people you maligned for decades, average un-hyphenated Americans were on to you, and picked the "outsider," character be-damned. 3/

When you touted "democracy," which is nothing but mob-rule, did it occur to you the "mob" might turn on you? Did it occur to you it was unpatriotic to encourage mobs, rather than defend individual liberty FROM them? When you trashed the electoral college, what did you expect? 4/

Democrats are JUST as responsible for yesterday as Donald Trump, and everyone who breached security. You don't get to celebrate mob violence for MONTHS, attack the COTUS as "antiquated" or failing to serve "the people," and then act like yesterday had nothing to do with you. 5/

We're live, talking about the Georgia Senate election results and more with @AmandaBecker, @AndraGillespie and @beckerdavidj.

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj "Ossoff did a little worse than Warnock in many counties, and it just seems Warnock picked up a few more votes ... it's really granular," and it will be a while before we can tell why there's a difference, says @AndraGillespie.

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj "I don't see how [Trump saying votes don't matter] is a message that will energize your voters to get out there and vote, and I think that hurt Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue," says Amanda

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj "We could do a story on voter fraud, but it would be a very short story. It has been investigated extensively... and evidence of voter fraud is very close to zero," says @beckerdavidj.

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj Gabriel Sterling, a top Republican GA elections administrator, told CNN that the loss will "fall squarely on the shoulders of President Trump and his actions since Nov. 3rd … When you tell people their vote doesn’t count, they believe that."

They are storming DC!
Trump supporters just tore down some barriers at the Capitol in Washington, DC #StopTheSteal #WashingtonDC

Alright, so let's do a thread on what the fuck just happened in Georgia tonight. Unless something changes, it sure looks like Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff will be Georgia's senators in the 117th Congress. With that in mind, let's litigate this disaster.

Before saying anything else, we should state that Raphael Warnock, Jon Ossoff, David Perdue, and Kelly Loeffler are all horrendous candidates. I will explain below.

Raphael Warnock is a radical leftist and a vicious antisemite. A healthy body politic would never let him get near the levers of power.

Jon Ossoff is a trust-fund bozo who has never accomplished anything in his 33 years of life and is not remotely qualified to be a senator.

The greatest tools we still have at our disposal are the US Constitution, our State Constitutions, the separation of powers, division of state and federal powers, the long list of judges appointed by @realDonaldTrump, and more important then anything our faith in God. All hope...

To every #Democrats who said #DonaldTrump did NOTHING, here is a list of WHAT HE DID.

👇👇👇👇👇

Trump recently signed 3 bills to benefit Native people. One gives compensation to the Spokane tribe for loss of their lands in the mid-1900s, one funds Native language programs, and the third gives federal recognition to the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians in Montana.

1 (Thread) Reminders of what the democrats said before the election to create what is happening today.

Trump is a dictator lol my a$$ 😂

Although we will end up with one

2/ Manufacturing a dictator: The media started in 2016 setting up the Nazi narrative

3/ Tila Tequila small group of people gained international attention because of this ridiculous media creation.

I am a marketer. There's no way I could get international media to pay attention to a small insignificant group of people without an agenda

4/ Then we have Russian interference and Facebook's help in stealing the election

5/ Which went on and on and on
