🚨A deep dive into Kelly Loeffler.
Who is she and why is she corrupt?
Sit down, relax, enjoy the rabbit hole.🐰
THREAD.
Loeffler, who is currently in one of two Senate run-offs in Georgia, is not a Georgia Native. Kelly Loeffler was actually born in Bloomington, Illinois.
Not a dealbreaker but keep this in mind going forward.
He is also the Chairman of the NYSE.
So much for “knowing what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck.”
She was appointed by Republican Gov Brian Kemp after U.S Sen Isakson resigned due to health reasons.
She took office as Senator for Georgia on Jan 1st, 2020
https://t.co/QZRecKbXmV
Kemp chose Loeffler over Doug Collins who is a Georgia native and was Trump's choice.🧐
As we know Loffler is insanely rich.
Did Loeffler pay for a senate seat?
Maybe.
https://t.co/m7EyMg4Ndw
She gave over $580 000 to Trump's victory fund & has given over $3.2 million to various political committees (97% of which was to Republicans)
She also donated the max - $2800 to Trump's "Recount Account"

You can also find this information on the United States Senate Financial Disclosures (Second photo)
https://t.co/pP3sM7lDa3
Loeffler is a former executive of ICE & if you remember, her husband is the CEO of ICE.
Well, this is what happened to the stock price.
Companies that would suffer during an economic downturn.
Here's what happened to TJMaxx just after she sold.
DuPont is involved in manufacturing/supplying PPE.
As you know, PPE is crucial for a pandemic. Having stock could potentially be super lucrative.
https://t.co/QSZLoxgcaZ
See @BanksPatriot multiple threads for more details on how Trump may be letting COVID spread in the US to turn a profit.
I will link it at the bottom of this thread
Loeffler sold stock in an online travel booking company – Booking Holdings, on the 10th & 11th of March, less than a week after purchasing them.
After the markets closed, Trump announced the European Travel restrictions & Booking Holdings fell 11%.
Both which would be crucial for a work from home situation.
1) She was playing up Trump and the economy
2) She was as expected COMPLETELY wrong about Trump and his response to the coronavirus.

Democrats have dangerously and intentionally misled the American people on #Coronavirus readiness.

Here\u2019s the truth: @realDonaldTrump & his administration are doing a great job working to keep Americans healthy & safe. https://t.co/DaDX5wpeUj
As far as I know, there were three investigations* into Loeffler's (R) potential insider trading.
1) Department of Justice.
2) Senate Ethics Panel
3) Securities and Exchange Commission
*There were also 3 others being investigated - 2 Repub & 1 Dem.
As you know, the DOJ is headed by Trump loyalist Bill Barr.
Having 3 out of 4 insider traders being Republican couldn't have been a good look for Trump's reelection campaign.
Jeffrey Spreecher - Loeffler's husband sent a $1 million dollar check to the leading pro-Trump super PAC - America First Action.
https://t.co/QafeGEtaB5
America First Action (AFA) is also central to the Ukraine scandal.
Parnas & Fruman donated to the PAC while helping Guiliani solicit dirt on Biden from Ukraine.
AFA is a rabbit hole in itself that I will leave to another day
https://t.co/CCVtfC347N
https://t.co/bk7Hzk5HyK
Remember when Gordon Sondland donated $1 million dollars and became ambassador to the EU. Let's see if this money is a get of jail card for Kelly Loeffler. https://t.co/SAYv6NKb2A
— Quarantined Life (@Real_QL) May 21, 2020
Guess what happened?
Barr's DOJ dropped the charges.
https://t.co/GhjAFmhPZl
I want to point out that they most likely dropped it because Loeffler doesn't DIRECTLY manage her funds she uses 3rd-party advisers at financial services e.g Goldman Sachs.
HOWEVER...
AND
Those who use others to manage their money can still influence that management by letting advisers know of crucial things like bailouts.

But interestingly Perdue's (another thread) case has been renewed.

I'll bite, Mr. Gray. We can even play by your rather finicky rules.
Let's begin with some of the things you have said about Xinjiang, notably absent from your more recent media appearances, but still present in your blog about your 2014 biking trip.
The following is taken from an ongoing list I keep of people who have been to Xinjiang and written/spoken about their experiences. It is separate from the testimony of detainees and their relatives I also keep. Jerry is on this
Jerry, your article for CGTN, as well as your various Medium pieces, belabor themselves to emphasize the smoothness of your time in Xinjiang. Why did you leave out so many details from your log of your 2014 trip? They seem relevant.
For example, would CGTN not let you speak about Shanshan, the town that evidently disturbed you so much?
Why, pray tell, after noting how kind and hospitable Xinjiang police were to you in 2019 for CGTN—and how you were never told where you could or could not go—would you omit these details?

All the leftists in the comments like oh no prageru made a good point lol
Polls consistently show conservative support for nuclear energy. It also has high support among elites. The myth that it is unpopular in general isn’t true—although it is unpopular in almost every specific case where they need to site it
Article is old but yeah
This study finds that risk & benefit predict individual opinion the most, followed by the share of nuclear energy already extant, followed by ideology (conservatives support more)
This one finds that journalists attitude affect public perceptions, but that energy consultants, nuclear engineers, bureaucrats, and the military show the highest support for nuclear energy
Nuclear energy:

Safe? \u2705
Clean? \u2705
Efficient? \u2705
Scalable? \u2705
Why is it not receiving more political support?

🧵 ⚡️ #Navalny, in handcuffs, expects his second verdict in one day NOW, about to be ready any minute now. He’s joking about cucumbers he pickles in his cell. I will translate his SECOND last address in one day but here is the previous trial coverage
Extracts from #Navalny last address #2 today: “Putin’s party is akin a swine devouring oil and gas dollars from a trough, & when poked & reminded that $ are for everyone, growls, “What about the WWII? What about veterans?!” The verdict is due any minute now. #FreeNavalny 👇🏼☝🏼
The judge is back and reads the verdict now.
“The politician criticized the participants in the [RT] video in support of the amendments to the Constitution, calling the presenters "corrupt lackeys", "traitors" and "people without conscience."
The judge says Navalny pleaded not guilty and called the persecution politicized.
#Navalny is facing TWO court hearings today; one is happening now. I'm listening to his speech. He's trying to explain: he was not hiding from the court; he was in a coma. The whole thing is so absurd that it is impossible to comment. In a nutshell: they just want him locked up. pic.twitter.com/LXEdJX7rIm

MDZS is laden with buddhist references. As a South Asian person, and history buff, it is so interesting to see how Buddhism, which originated from India, migrated, flourished & changed in the context of China. Here's some research (🙏🏼 @starkjeon for CN insight + citations)
1. LWJ’s sword Bichen ‘is likely an abbreviation for the term 躲避红尘 (duǒ bì hóng chén), which can be translated as such: 躲避: shunning or hiding away from 红尘 (worldly affairs; which is a buddhist teaching.) (https://t.co/zF65W3roJe) (abbrev. TWX)
2. Sandu (三 毒), Jiang Cheng’s sword, refers to the three poisons (triviṣa) in Buddhism; desire (kāma-taṇhā), delusion (bhava-taṇhā) and hatred (vibhava-taṇhā).
These 3 poisons represent the roots of craving (tanha) and are the cause of Dukkha (suffering, pain) and thus result in rebirth.
Interesting that MXTX used this name for one of the characters who suffers, arguably, the worst of these three emotions.
3. The Qian kun purse “乾坤袋 (qián kūn dài) – can be called “Heaven and Earth” Pouch. In Buddhism, Maitreya (मैत्रेय) owns this to store items. It was believed that there was a mythical space inside the bag that could absorb the world.” (TWX)
