Call me crazy but maybe decrying that gov't overreach killed a squirrel while ignoring women killed by abortion bans isn't a terrific move for your double digit gender gap https://t.co/l0zOsXnpnG

It’s hard to make this argument in good faith bc 1) Chavismo had repeatedly cited CC analysis as proof their elections are legit in the past 2) they were admitted as official observers by the gov 3) gov officials said they were legit LAST WEEK https://t.co/x9bk9wYZj2

The Carter Center is funded by the US State Department, CIA front USAID, the UK, and the EU -- which have backed many coup attempts in Venezuela, including one right now. It's also funded by MONARCHIES Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar. It's a mercenary org with zero legitimacy.

“I resigned on Wednesday, 15 May – the 76th anniversary of the Nakba… I could no longer serve at the pleasure of a president who refuses to stop another catastrophe” I wrote for @guardian about my resignation. How many red lines will it take, @POTUS? https://t.co/5PmW4wXUNp

In #Omdurman, I was able to meet up with ⁦@ZeinabMSalih⁩, who has done amazing reporting from #Sudan for ⁦@guardian⁩. Like other members of ⁦@MarieColvinNet⁩ she undergoes the danger and discomfort of reporting war all the time, while I visit only briefly.

"Sometimes it seems that Haiti’s problems can be attributed... to the psycho-political mania of the US, which just can’t seem to let go of the idea that the world’s first Black republic is not equipped to govern itself and must never be allowed to do so."

So I have been having a little look at the people who run some of the Welsh anti-20mph Facebook groups. It seems that many of them a run by Tory politicians.... who live in England....and support 20mph where they live.... Let's go on a journey (at a very safe speed). [Thread]
