#Copywriting for #Video: Tips for #Writing Engaging Video Scripts Image
1. When writing a video script, it's important to understand that you're not just writing words on a page. You're crafting a story that will captivate & engage your audience. #copywriting #videoscripting
2. Start your video script with a strong hook that grabs your viewer's attention from the very beginning. A good hook can make the difference between someone clicking away or sticking around to watch the whole thing. #hook #videoscripting

What a pos. Driving 4 hrs each way to harass Martin Boyce, the guest speaker, there to discuss his Stonewall experience:

"In any case, one of his personal philosophies of scare drag had a practical benefit.

Today we cremated my father, who died this past weekend after suffering effects of #LongCovid accelerating his dementia & other health problems. He went from an adventurer to a cripple in a matter of months. A 🧵 1/
He got COVID spring of ‘21 before being fully immunized. Initially seemed like he recovered, but clearly more trouble with memory, weakness, motivation. thelancet.com/journals/lanps…
And then this sudden lack of desire to move became harder to overcome his weakness. @HeidiEngel4 @IcuPerme @ellenhillegass would have loved to have had PT prioritized for him. We knew he needed but he lacked motivation & resources

#Throwback to @childrightsprof & @juliemlinton's interview on @cnn with @donlemoncnn last month, where the conditions & impacts of migrant child detention were discussed. (thread)
Children being "put on buses in the middle of the night and being driven across state lines, to locations that were hours and hours away from where their parents were, having siblings dropped off at other locations...being just terrified"
"this administration is breaking the black letter law. The TVPRA clearly requires that children be placed in the least restrictive environment possible, in the child's best interest, and there is no question that [these facilities] are not in the children's best interest..."

Check out this press conference in TX and #calltoaction

We need to call on elected officials and demand that the government sanctioned abuse and neglect of migrant children is ended.

#amplifythechildren

@childrightsprof reads a heartbreaking testimony of children who are kept in a crowded room, with exposed toilets & no privacy, where they don't get access to showers, where they sleep on cement floors, & only leave the room 2 times in the duration of their detention.
@childrightsprof There is no question that this is abuse and severe neglect.

We all have an obligation to pressure lawmakers to
➡️ investigated the abuse and neglect
➡️ take these children into protective custody
➡️ provided safe homes -children don't belong in jail like facilities

Datenschutz und Bürgerrechte sind wichtig! Das meinen nicht nur wir Piraten, das meinen alle progressiven Teile der Gesellschaft. Leider oft nicht heftig genug.
Deswegen braucht es auch parteipolitisch unabhängige Organisationen, die recherchieren, informieren, durch die Instanzen klagen und auch ggf. Bündnisse quer durch alle Lager schließen, um den politischen Druck zu erhöhen.

1) Senate - Resolution Terminating Trump's Fake National Emergency

2) House - Mueller Transparency Resolution

Details for each CTA below.
The resolution to terminate Trump's #FakeNationalEmergency now heads to the Senate.

Every senator should be putting country over party and opposing this dangerous move to cede more power to Trump — and yours need to hear from you. Call now: 888-517-1661.
House Dems will vote on a resolution calling for the public release of the #Mueller report whenever the special counsel finishes his work.

Call your MOCs NOW & urge them to support the Mueller #Transparency Resolution when it goes to the House floor on Thursday, (202) 224-3121.

REALLY BIG DEAL:

The FBI may be finished with its probe of #Kavanaugh by MONDAY MORNING!!!

That's tomorrow.

The White House & accomplices in the Senate, including Grassley & McConnell, want to pretend they've done a real probe.

We need calls now... nytimes.com/2018/09/30/us/…
#CallToAction:

We have a democracy, w/independent institutions, norms & importantly, checks/balances.

But this is the kind of sham probe that occurs in de facto 1-party autocracies (like Russia.)

Call & demand a real probe ASAP. Race against the clock.

URGENT #CallToAction: Given events at the #TreasonSummit, the near future (before Labor Day) will determine if Trump successfully destroys the #Mueller probe & escapes justice.

Time to get focused. Follow these 4 steps to be useful.

1. Call your 3 MoCs!
theloyalopposition.net/daily-ctas/tel…
2. Sign up for Wednesday night's candle-light vigils for the #RuleOfLaw, even if you have to change your plans or drive a distance.

Visit ConfrontCorruption.org to sign up.
3. Sign up for TrumpIsNotAboveTheLaw.org. When Trump crosses a red line by firing Rosenstein or significantly hampering Mueller's probe, we will take to the streets in non-violent peaceful protest.

Happy #FourthofJuly2018:

When we created The Loyal Opposition, we began with a non-partisan #CallToAction operation.

Our mission has changed as our country's slide towards autocracy accelerates unchecked by the GOP.

1/3
theloyalopposition.net/mission/
The biggest platform changes we've made:

1) We are now explicitly partisan. Democrats MUST win the #DemocracyReferendum in November.

2) Our focus has shifted to the Russian information war, election education, & ad hoc CTAs that support our mission.

2/3
theloyalopposition.net/mission/
Please read our revised mission statement for full details on our updated mandate.

We remain a grassroots funded organization and are grateful to our followers for the trust placed in us.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

THREAD. There’s something we need to clear up. Our work with @indivisibleden has been some of the most rewarding work we’ve ever done, changing the way we see ourselves & the world around us. Want to get involved with grassroots organizing? Join us! 1/
But there is DIFFERENT Facebook group named Indivisible Denver, & their admin has taken a different track from us. This is an unfortunate situation. And confusing. 2/
So here are some easy markers to tell if you are dealing with US or NOT US. First, this is our public-facing page (not to be confused w/ a FB group):
