If you’re frustrated by this lockdown it is worth remembering that there is an alternative. Our country has had a year to build an effective system for testing to identify cases & isolate them & those they have exposed. We are all paying the price for the failure to do this.

The deaths that are occurring now were largely preventable. The people dying didn’t simply want a big family bash over the holidays nor have they all been breaking the rules. They are not all old or medically vulnerable.

They are key workers and people’s whose jobs and lives expose them to crowds. The situation is so desperately tragic it’s much easier to blame them. But really important not to blame them. None of us can reduce our risk to zero and all of us rely on people taking risks.

The deaths, suffering & long term problems caused by the repeated lockdowns are an equal tragedy. It is appallingly difficult for many people right now.

It is not beyond a wealthy state like ours to control the spread of the virus without simply shutting everyone at home but at the moment this is the only alternative we have.

They are using the same Hegelian dialectic to break up the USA. Rothschild and its forward Fire base Israel and their golem creations Russia/China/WEF.

Transferring all the technology to Russia and China

Building the Bridge and Road and placing Israel at the heart of the Bunting Clover Leaf Map.

That is what the Abraham Accords and Yinon Plan was about.

The year 1973 was a KEY YEAR. It was the year of the Yom Kippur War.

Seeing all these people clutching their pearls & blaming a few people who organized the Jan 6th event, with the blessing & promotion of the President by the way-were silent for 2/3 of 2020 while BLM and Antifa looted & burned down the country. It still goes on in Portland nightly

On the death of #SheldonAdelson - a brief thread.

Sheldon Adelson - the megadonor to the GOP who received the genuflection of virtually all hopefuls on the Republican national stage - is dead. 1/

Adelson pumped money into the very GOP machinery that has enabled Trumpism, facilitated policies that have torn children from their parents, cultivated racism, antisemitism, and white supremacy, and that has now led to the deaths of 350,000+ Americans from COVID. 2/

Some people who appreciated the money he threw at Israeli groups and initiatives are going to be angry if I celebrate the demise of this merchant of corruption and death. "Jews don't celebrate death", right? Wrong. 3/

The "Song of the Sea" (Exodus 15:1-18) is the oldest text in the Hebrew Bible, the foundation of Israelite religious belief, and it is nothing but a celebration of a mass death of Egyptians at the Red Sea during the Exodus. 4/

1 Samuel 18 preserves an old song that tells us that both David and Saul were celebrated for slaughtering "thousands" and "myriads". 5/

.@SteveSisolak, you state you support schools reopening.

Well, educators do also. We support schools reopening SAFELY!

Here is how you, our Governor, can support us in CCSD. 1/9

1️⃣ Ensure that there are enough vaccines for teaches to receive two doses in the preferred timeframe.
2️⃣ Encourage Superintendent Jara to make this a priority, as well as send out a statement to district employees of his plan to ensure we will not open schools until all 2/9

THREAD: Today, I submitted a resolution to investigate and expel Rep. Maddock for violating his duty to support the MI and US Constitutions.

One week ago, thousands went to our Nation’s Capitol because of perpetual lies and distrust lobbed at our institutions. 1/

These lies were spread by those elected to uphold our Constitution. This led to an unprecedented insurrection and acts of sedition. Our Temple of Democracy was desecrated in ways we could’ve never imagined.

These events were not random. 2/

#mileg

They were coordinated and fanned by months of lies by the President, Senators, members of Congress, and other elected officials. They amplified lies about the 2020 elections, which was the very way they were elected into office. 3/

#mileg

Among those who attended the events last week was Rep. Matt Maddock, who has spent months sowing lies and distrust, which culminated in the attack on our Republic. He must be held accountable.

His actions raises questions on whether or not he violated the Constitution. 4/
#mileg

I believe in unity. But we cannot cannot unite as a nation until we hold those who seek to divide us accountable.

The American Idea was attacked last week. If we allow insurrection against the US to happen with impunity and w/ no accountability, it can & will happen again. 5/
