Please urge them to show real football (soccer) & winter baseball too.
.@tracemetalclean: more recently, @AnthonyAdragna blogs "Rick Perry dances toward the exits". Cute!
Has Tony ever challenged Rick on his huge vulnerabilities to MAGA (his support for amnesty, opposition to walls, TTC, etc.)?
What use is he at holding Perry & Trump accountable?
.@DSandyToes6: GOP gets away with cutting SNAP to help billionaires *because of* those like @PhilMcCausland. Ultimately, their only response is censorship & clearly that doesn't work.
In 4+ years, they've never once shown Trump wrong to his base over his absurdly flawed ideas.
.@rowaningala: you should direct your anger where it belongs. GOP gets away with harming the poor to help the wealthy *because of* those like @PhilMcCausland who only do shtick on the issue to get clicks. The last thing they're going to do is engage GOP leaders in real debate.
Headline: "Presidential historian predicts public support for Trump will collapse".

.@greg_badalian: @ARmastrangelo blogs about the fired Newsweek reporter, without even mentioning that she appears to be a scapegoat. Even thejasonhopkins admits that.
I've written 1000s of posts (& 100s of comments on BB before being banned). I'd never do what Alana does.
I want Breitbart to reach out to AOC fans & point out to them - in a way palatable to them - how her pro-Big Biz immigration policies would greatly harm workers.
When'll Trump/Breitbart do it?

Indeed. But, those like @lukerosiak, Trump, etc COINTELPRO attempts to criticize religions where it's justified. They might as well be working for CAIR.
Tangible example: recent Stella claims about Ilhan only help her.
RT @_MNmisfit No religion should be exempt from criticism
.@butchcrassidyxl: those like @lukerosiak constantly *help* those who push "deradicalization" classes. The goal of r/w leaders is only to sell books & get clicks or, in Trump's case, rile up his based with a pro-terrorist Muslim Ban.
.@LouBrandeis: now, @ShelbyTalcott blogs about the Newsweek reporter who was fired for what appears to be a mistake of her editor.

The main "progressive" tactic (if not the only one) boils down to quashing dissent. They do it in various ways: stacking the deck at debates etc; smears (some based on dumpster diving); and, of course, outright attempts at censorship.

Per a r/w blog (whether this is true or not isn't relevant to the point), "climate change" activists are considering rebranding it as "global meltdown" and "climate collapse." If so, won't that hurt them when there's no visible "collapse"?

.@Bubola: hey Gretchen, do you speak German or Russian (or Korean)? The @CalebHowe blog about Danielle Stella is creepily close to things DDR/USSR said BITD. She seems to be a fairly bad person, but quashing dissent - and those like Caleb who cheer it - is much, much worse.
Did the English pick up dropping letters ("Worcester" = "Wustr", etc.) from the French who ruled them for centuries?
#UK #history
.@kef2319: more recently, @marisa_iati blogs about the Danielle Stella permaban, only urging Twitter to be even more pro-censorship.
Twitter censors ~50% the replies to Rouhani & ~40% those to Medvedev. Iati not only fully supports Twitter helping quash dissent, she wants more.
.@jeffrich: hey Jeff, imagine if someone were sending emails to Valley leaders pointing out that Twitter - and you personally - greatly help dictators like Medvedev & Rouhani hide from dissent by not only censoring replies to them, but by ghosting dissenters.
Good luck.
.@bajshagirl: hi Jeri. As you can see from my pinned tweet, @yoyoel censors about 1/2 of those replying to Iran pres Rouhani. You can easily verify that yourself.
Do you personally think Yoel Roth should be helping a theocrat straight outta the 14th century hide from dissent?
.@JeffWMontague: hey Jeff, see the open source app & the real, reproducible data at my pinned tweet showing how heavily @alypavs censors *all* kinds of users.
Eg, she censors ~1/2 the replies to Rouhani, ~40% to Medvedev, etc. She hasn't met a dictator she doesn't try to help.
Speaking about that, have there been any #Subaru cars in any of the #FastAndFurious movies?
.@SweetLouDiamond: as a certain Reich shows, totalitarianism is quite compatible with gays.
@lgbtqnation is another example: if they had the power they'd be as totalitarian as regimes like that, DDR, USSR, etc.
They also aren't smart enough to show Danielle Stella wrong.
.@Ramfam6: point out in comments at HuffPo that @lydiaoconnor isn't a real liberal. She writes about Danielle Stella w/o expressing any concern about someone being banned for a dim, childish ASCII figure. Lydia O'Connor would censor like Honecker if she could. She's no liberal.
.@metaburgeon: as a "questioner of BS" you should have noticed that @LEBassett only objected to Mitt calling Warren "Prof." (which she is) & not Senator. She didn't address Mitt's points so went for the LHF. She's not representing your interests very well.
.@Richard_Bayer_: you defend Danielle Stella's actions. Did you mention her Hangman-style ASCII art of someone (presumably Ilhan) being hanged, or did you forget to mention that? (I oppose her banning, but cons - truly vile, dim, deranged, reprehensible slime - make that hard).
.@TeamStella2020: cons have made it incredibly easy for Twitter to ban them. Instead of rallying *everyone* to oppose Twitter censorship using what Twitter actually does (see my pinned tweet), they falsely pretend only cons are censored. They marginalize themselves.
.@TeamStella2020: #DanielleStella didn't just "cit[e] the law]", she followed her Constitution tweet with Hangman-style ASCII art. Even Jim Hoft admitted that.
Stella opened herself up to being banned & made her less defensible to honest people by being OTT & cutesy.
.@RoyPhilpott: kneeball (NCAA or NFL) highly negatively impacts society in many ways, such as promoting violence as a solution to kids.
Any pro player in real football (Messi, even Vardy...) or baseball player (Trout...) is a better role model for kids than any kneeball player.
Four years on, @gatewaypundit 's "COURT RECORDS: Colorado Planned Parenthood Shooter NOT Republican, Identifies as Woman" (led to Ted Cruz' bogus "transgendered leftist activist" claim) still has no correction. I can't imagine doing such things. He lies & then bans dissenters.
.@strang666: @BrunetteJoy blocked me despite never tweeting it. @gatewaypundit banned me for correctly pointing out he's hazy on the truth (eg, his Robert Lewis Dear post).
Hoft is on board with Trump's amnesty & he & his fans act just like SJWs by quashing dissent.

Use that to undercut him to his readers.
.@Joannnoe1: the best way to undercut Bloomberg is over his immigration stance. He wants to flood the U.S. with cheap labor to lower wages. You can also undercut @camanpour for not calling him and his proxies on that.
.@NotReallyaDr: actually, Bloomberg doesn't "have enough money to end homelessness in NYC" or anywhere else: it would keep recurring due to the anti-American NeoLiberal policies (loose borders/free trade/globalism) he and all other Dem/GOP politicians strongly support.

.@JeremyBednarik: AOC is very strongly amnesty, making her extremely vulnerable to her base. She'd greatly increase the labor supply & thus greatly lower wages.
Instead of stocking up on Don Jr books & bad memes, shouldn't @TPUSA be making that point *to AOC's base*?
.@RomulanWarhawk: Reagan also pushed "greed is good" NeoLiberal policies (loose borders, free trade, globalism). There's no GOP or Dem leader that truly opposes those anti-American policies. That includes - bluster aside - @TPUSA.
.@nostradamRUSS: there are smart ways to undercut @TPUSA over buying up Don Jr's book, your childish graphic isn't it.
Point out they spend donor $ on that, not on undercutting opponents.

.@Iddybud: @JulianCastro 's immigration stance is very pro-Big Biz. He'd give them all the cheap labor they want, helping them lower wages and thus increase poverty & hunger. He'd paper it over with food programs that everyone except Big Biz would pay for.
He's corrupt.
.@HarmonyHealing3: @JulianCastro 's "anti-hunger" plan is just corporate socialism. He wants to increase immigration - giving Big Biz all the cheap labor they want, lowering wages, increasing hunger - but he wants everyone except Big Biz to pay for his bandaid.

.@LarryBoorstein: all else aside, was it honest reporting of @StefWKight to not highlight the fact that "University of Farmington" was started during the Obama admin? Can you trust someone who wouldn't highlight that? Isn't that like putting a balloon payment in 3pt print?
.@VerityPace: indeed. "University of Farmington" goes back to Obama. Oddly enough, @stefwkight doesn't seem to have spelled that out for the "OMG!! TRUMP!!!" crowd, for some odd reason.
(ICE tactics are a separate topic than her tactics; she shows again she & #Axios deceive.)
.@psvail: "University of Farmington" was started a year before Trump took office. Who was president at that time?
If the bust had happened in the era of that former president (whoever he was) do you think @Phil_Lewis_ would react the same?
