This sure looks to me like we flipped another seat from Red to Blue. This is from the CA Secretary of State’s website that was updated at 6:05 am pt showing @WillRollinsCA beating GOP Rep Ken Calvert. #wednesdaywisdom https://t.co/m1ECafH9Ba

One day before elections and Dems are ahead on the generic poll. Why? Because Dems put #PeopleOverPolitics and are focused on lower costs. What are Republicans focused on? Ending Social Security and Medicare in 5 years. How do we know? They put it in writing. #VoteBlueTommorrow QT @Politics_Polls: Generic Congressional Ballot: Democrats 48% (+5) Republicans 43% .@MorningConsult/@Politico, 2,005 RV, 11/4-5 https://t.co/0e6SQyXkME)

Democrats are people just like you. MAGA Republicans and Trump embrace the fringe cult QAnon. What does #QAnon believe?

Trump as President couldn’t just declassify docs in his own mind. He would need to communicate to an official to declassify X, Y and Z docs. He didn’t do that. But’s let’s say he did. Biden would have reclassified the docs and Trump would be in the same trouble he is in now.

The MAGA Republican argument is that all U.S. national security documents described in the #Affidavit were magically declassified. That means not only can Trump see them, but also your neighbor. And the Iranians. And the Russians. That’s a traitorous argument being made by @GOP.

@keelsheelsIV @BorisJohnson @TalkTV @Nigel_Farage @GBNEWS While you were watching TV, I was getting evacuated on Capitol Hill. So no, it wasn’t a set up. 150 police officers were assaulted by Trump supporters.
What Trump did went far beyond dereliction of duty. It was criminal. As @RepElaineLuria explains, Trump was calling Senators to have them overturn the election WHILE THE ASSAULT WAS HAPPENING. Trump was leveraging the attack to try to stop the certification. THIS IS A CRIME.

Dereliction of duty doesn’t fully describe what happened on Jan 6. Trump assembled the mob, incited the mob, and sent them to the Capitol to stop the electoral certification. He then sent a text during the assault to incite them more. This is a criminal conspiracy. #Jan6Hearing QT @sewellchan: Perhaps the most damning/horrifying revelation: Trump didn’t make his Rose Garden appearance (at 4:03pm) until AFTE… https://t.co/ouyoZPHRD0)

The single, short article was designed to get GOP support, and it did. This was the most bipartisan impeachment vote in US history. And in the trial, the vote was 57 to 43, the most bipartisan vote to convict in U.S. history. In most contexts, 57 to 43 is a blowout.

Not only is the replacement theory promoted by GOP Rep @EliseStefanik racist, it’s also stupid. It says Jews are bringing immigrants to replace white folks. I’m an immigrant. I was not brought to America by Jews. And I didn’t somehow “replace” a white person. #thursdayvibes QT @TheRickWilson: It's been a busy week, but did I mention that @EliseStefanik ran ads promoting white replacement theory?)
Louisiana shows again that the two parties are not the same. If you want government-mandates pregnancies and women in handcuffs for seeking an abortion, then vote GOP.
