Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources

Call it racism, misogyny, sexism, religious righteousness, some combination or just plain plutocracy — fundamentally, GOP are against equality.
It’s not new or news GOP are against a fully functional democracy.

Obama sold the stimulus in primetime. He traveled the country making speeches as well, yet the BS about him not selling it continues. He also passed it while the economy crashing, so everyone knew it was necessary. Many opposed it simply, because he was Black. #inners
The other BS narrative is that it wasn't big enough.. Franken and another Dem weren't seated yet. He needed two republicans to pass it, he got three. They wouldn't support more. And guess what? It worked. It prevented a depression. I'm tired of the lies. #inners
The Obama stimulus saved towns like Elkhart, Indiana. He visited those cities, including Elkhart. They knew who and what saved their economies. They still voted GOP. He saved the auto industry. I remember a worker saying he was voting for Romney in 2012, knowing that. #inners

Wow, y’all watching #inners ? FFS! #TraitorTrump is THE most corrupt politician EVER! Trump plotted w the head of the Civil division at DOJ Clark, concocted a plan to oust Acting AG Rosen in order to FORCE the GA DA to void the election & say Trump won! JFC! This was on Jan 3
3/Jeffrey Clark, had been devising ways to cast doubt on the election results & to bolster Trump’s continuing legal battles & the pressure on GA politicians. Bec Rosen had refused the president’s entreaties to carry out those plans, Trump was abt to decide whether to fire Rosen

🙄Trump's still desperately gaslighting that Russia wanted Hillary Clinton to win the election. Putin himself admitted he wanted Trump in Helsinki. An admission so damning, it's deleted from the official Kremlin transcript. The WH tried deleting it too!
Putin also showed he preferred Trump in a 2016 interview on @CNN: "I really like Trump b/c he wants to restore relations w/ Russia." Putin said this on June 13, 2016—days after the infamous secret June 9 Trump campaign meeting w/ Russians in Trump Tower
@CNN THIS is the Russia hoax, folks ➡️Trump rewriting history:
—Gaslighting Russia's sabotage of our election FOR HIM
—Denying Putin helped HIM win
—Lying abt Putin's own admissions
++It's widely known Putin hated HillaryClinton over Russian protests, Magnitsky sanctions, PanamaPapers

A very happy Putin makes surprise visit to Damascus to meet Syria’s butcher Assad. They don’t look too worried about the aftermath of Soleimani assassination. Rare to see so many smiling Kremlin officials. Trump’s disasters always seem to work out best for Russia.
🤔If #Soleimani was in Damascus planning attacks—imminent or not—on the US, does anyone believe Putin wouldn't know about it?
🤔And that call to Trump re terrorism on Dec 29, about the time Trump changed his mind, stunning Pentagon officials.
…So many questions…

Seems weird that Putin left Russia on Russian Orthodox Christmas to meet with Assad in Damascus. Whatever he's up to in Syria, he made sure to have some propaganda photo-ops showing what a good Christian he is, visiting a Greek Orthodox Church. (Why's Assad lighting candles too?)

Hey #inners! Tune in tonight at 8 p.m. for a special episode of @AllInWithChris with a live studio audience. Guests include former Rep. Katie Hill.
Sen. Hirono on comments from the president's defenders as possible Senate impeachment trial approaches: "Maybe they're gonna say, 'So what? Get over it.' We shouldn't get over it, that's not okay."
"Any time he puts his finger anywhere, it all goes haywire. It's chaos," Sen. Hirono says of President Trump. "As long as he stays out of it, then we can get something done."

#Firtash is a hub in #UkraineGate, w/ lawyers DiGenova & Toensing, Giuliani, Parnas, Fruman a few of the known spokes. As part of his own legal strategy, Firtash took steps to help Trump attack Biden, Mueller & his most prominent critics. time.com/5699201/exclus… #Impeachment
Another GOP blast from the past works for Firtash: Mark Corallo was the guy on Trump's legal team in the Mueller probe who quit after witnessing Trump & Hope Hicks scheming to cover up Don Jr's Trump Tower meeting w/ Russians. Obstruction gave him the willies but not Russian mob?
‼️Parnas & Fruman were flying to Vienna to arrange a @FoxNews interview for Ukraine’s ousted prosecutor Shokin on Hannity, when they were arrested for conspiracy & campaign-finance charges. cnn.com/2019/10/23/pol… #maddow #inners #UkraineGate #ImpeachmentInquiry
‼️WHITE HOUSE ADMITS TO QUID PRO QUO WITH UKRAINE
Mulvaney: Ukraine aid was tied to Trump’s desire to investigate DNC server & Biden corruption (both baseless propaganda pushed by Russia btw)
Trump’s crimes are so clear, there’s no defense. Just gaslighting, smears, deflection.

ICYMI😅Mulvaney’s bad gaslighting Trump’s abuse of power just admitted the quid pro quo—Ukraine military aid for investigations. 🧐It’s so normal, “We do it all the time.” Watch the bad propagandist confuse US policy objectives w/ personal political gain.
🚨JFC >> SO Trump acknowledged Russia’s election interference to Lavrov & Kislyak IN THE OVAL OFFICE!! Then said he was unconcerned about Moscow’s interference in U.S. election b/c US did the same thing. The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
🚨And here’s how it connects to #UkraineGate #WhistleblowerComplaint: The memo summarizing Trump’s Oval Offic meeting—where he told Russians #Russia’s election interference was OK—was limited to all but a few with the highest security clearances to keep it hidden. #Maddow #Inners
“White House officials were particularly distressed by Trump’s election remarks because it appeared the president was forgiving Russia for an attack that had been designed to help elect him…Trump also seemed to 🔥invite Russia to interfere🔥in other countries’ elections” #Maddow
As I said to @chrislhayes, impeachment is the antibiotic but new laws are the vaccine. Congress has to harden the rules to prevent Trump or future presidents from abusing their office to corrupt elections. Here’s a few they should enact: #inners
1. Impose procedural restrictions before DOJ can take investigatory steps against a candidate for office. #inners
2. Prevent intimidating activity by law enforcement officers including ICE near polling places. #inners
For someone as smart, accomplished and connected as Rocah, this request is ingenuous. Asking why @TeamPelosi doesn't #impeach is ingenuous, too.
@chrislhayes @RepRaskin I think that @Mimirocah1 and Hayes know better than I do why @HouseDemocrats are not so quick to impeach: the #Dems know that the #Trumpanzees - 1 in 5 voters in the USA - would treat it like a coup d'etat and act accordingly. The least harmful act would be to NOT vote for a Dem.
🚨‼️Cuccinelli is a monster >> Citizenship & Immigration Services Ends Medical Deferred Action, a program allowing legal migrants to stay in US for life-saving medical treatment. They're now being referred to ICE for deportation and death. 33 days notice. npr.org/2019/08/27/754…
Rachel @Maddow just covered the most inhumane of all Trump’s immigration policies—ending Medical Deferment, sending critically ill children like Jonathan Sanchez to be deported and certain death. This quote is from the @NPR story linked to above. Do listen to his voice. #maddow
@maddow @NPR Maria came to US at invitation of doctors for treatment in a clinical trial. Thanks to her, FDA approved meds that improve survival rates for her disease. Trump admin is canceling her medical deferment. Deportation is a death sentence. nytimes.com/2019/08/29/us/… #maddow #inners

‼️The day after Mueller warned of ongoing Russia threat, Republicans block election security bills. Even as NEW Senate report confirms the NIGHTMARE SCENARIO DID HAPPEN in 2016—Russia breached ALL 50 states’ systems & was ABLE TO CHANGE VOTER DATA! #Inners
🚨Pay attention! @chrislhayes is right. The nightmare scenario DID happen. Russia attacked all 50 states & was able to change+/delete voter data. The #SenateReport states "no evidence votes were manipulated" BUT adds MAJOR CAVEAT—"Insight is LIMITED"—3 times!—pp 5,10, 38. #Inners
@chrislhayes #SenateReport states they don't have the data (yet?) to know whether Russia manipulated votes/data. "Committee has limited information on the extent to which state and local election authorities carried out forensic evaluation of registration databases." (fn p5) #inners #Maddow
GOP & @VP saw this at border in Texas: 400 dirty hungry men in squalid fenced cages. Stench so intense, guards wore masks. When reporters arrived, the men reached out in desperation.
