Allow me to show you what 10 years with @repjasonsmith has done to us.
First, Smith's constituents live under the worst conditions of poverty in the state of Missouri đ

In Smith's district, the second largest farming district in the state, we suffer from extreme food insecurity... and @RepJasonSmith refers to himself as a farmer đŤ¤
Smith also voted against lower costs of food and fuel.

We have very few food banks in our very large, very food-insecure, farming district.
Even though 1 in 5 kids in the 8th district faces food insecurity.
I've never heard @RepJasonSmith even mention it.
Think this guy should be in charge of our country's money?

@pfizer @POTUS @TheDemocrats @VP @CNN @CBSNews @NBCNews @WKRN @WSMV @NC5 I have had the amazing opportunity to sit on Vanderbilt's HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Community Advisory board since 2015 and want to shine a bright light on how therapeutics with SARS-Cov-2 should have been managed in the same way as HIV.
@pfizer @POTUS @TheDemocrats @VP @CNN @CBSNews @NBCNews @WKRN @WSMV @NC5 During the early years of the HIV/AIDS crisis, many were without any options. Then, AZT and other handfuls of medications were made available. Those who took it were literally guinea pigs. While supposition, I imagine escaping hospitalization and death were the metrics used.

This kind of anger is growing. I don't know who the writer is but itâs a thread worth spreading. By an irate articulate person. Not mine but with permission to share.
People might say that the pandemic is not political, but IT. IS. EFFINâ POLITICAL. WHEN. GOVERNMENT. IS FAILING.

When the government canât get itâs f**king act together amid the worst global crisis that this generation is facing.
IT IS POLITICAL when, a year into the pandemic, we still are not responding properly, we still arenât able to test and treat enough, our contact tracing efforts

are all moro-moro and have pretty much failed; when the LGUs are all confused and the private sector is left to fend for itself and its millions of workers and employees.
IT IS POLITICAL when there is (and never has been) a clear, cohesive, and effective strategy to secure

Reality! Just like in the corporate world, the campaign world has a black glass ceiling for women. I have the education, experience & leadership skills to be a Congresswoman, yet as a WOC, got less & will get less financial support as candidate. #Resistance cont.
In 2018, I came closest to beating my GOP opponent since 1990 with 10pt, @politico last year rerated the 1stCD of VA from Strong to Likely GOP. All done with no help from State or Federal party help. All done grassroots, mostly done within state with no corporate PAC $$. Cont.
This year we are running a strong people campaign & yes, COVID-19 will affect how & if citizens can donate & vote! Iâm glad votes get you elected & not money. But $$ buys ads. Help me get the word out that our GOP incumbent has to retire by voting for me. Cont.
We are experiencing a serious pandemic that is currently impacting our communities, districts, States, and Nations. It's times like these where people all around us are in need and have limited paths help.

As a community leader, this is where I plead with everyone to check in on those around you. Make sure we are all prepared with extra food, medications, and necessities for a full quarantine. Remember to include pets and home goods.

Where many of us have prepared for the long term, many didn't have the resources to prepare fully enough. Call those you know, help who you can. If you find anyone who is in need and can't find help, don't hesitate to contact anyone from our campaign.

I'm running because our current congressman isn't listening, isn't passing legislation, and isn't helping the people of our district. I'm running because We Deserve Better.

Hey @RobWittman, if you cared about my daughterâs health and did your job to represent the people of this district, you wouldnât be trying to score cheap political points right before the election. fredericksburg.com/news/local/gopâŚ
I wrote you a letter detailing how my daughter became severely ill and that we needed to rule out any environmental factors that were making her sick. You chose to give a canned response instead of taking action to help save my daughter.
Now youâre insinuating Iâm a liar. Youâre accusing a mother desperate to save her child of making up a story for the sake of trying to win a political campaign. Shame on you.
THREAD: I had to do some research on armed guards in schools, synagogues, etc. It's difficult - there is very very little research on armed guards and "active shooter incidents". Like basically no data. But what I was able to dig up shows a few things:
1) Where there are more guns, there is more gun violence and more deaths. Period. This is not new news. @MomsDemand @Everytown #Pittsburg #WeDeserveBetter
2) An FBI report analyzed 160 active shooter incidents between 2000 and 2013. The following data was presented:
In 45 of the 160 incidents where law enforcement engaged a shooter, law enforcement suffered casualties in 21 (46.7%) of the incidents (9 officers killed & 28 wounded)

Is there a Republican in power who will actually stand up to the celebratory ugliness of Trump and the Red Hats, who will, as loud as me, say that power requires empathy, care, responsibility, and restraint? 1/
Is there one who will forcefully denounce the nauseating MAGA mania for giving wholly over to the thrill of doing wrong as antithetical to both American and Christian values? And then vote accordingly to curb the excesses? 2/
In the age of Trump, none do. None. They talk, then say they're retiring, and on the way out, quietly vote to cement cancerous power.
Itâs a moral imperative, not partisan playacting -- it isn't Left v Right.

Look at the rallies, the crowds erupting in delight at mocking the disabled, the Gold Star family, the assault victim. The ecstatic reception to McConnellâs breaking norms, rushing through unwritten and unvetted bills.

Look at the flattery of White Supremacy and its nauseating adherents. Look at the dismissal of daily glaring lies, both petty and outrageous, from the WH on down through the entire party apparatus. Look at the young children locked up alone in increasing numbers,

rendered inhuman by more craven lies, cheered on by that same red-hatted crowd. Look at it and donât look away. Big smiles. Delight. Applause lines.
That crowd doesnât care if theyâre ripped off. They donât care. They are in a Dionysian orgy of cruelty, 3/
