As #RandiRhodes likes to point out:
"[Pence] first looked for every opportunity to do the WRONG thing. He knew what T****'s plan was [#FakeElectors and disrupt #Jan6 certification). But he didn't call the FBI, he called Dan Quayle to find out if he could actually DO what T**** wanted."

CAN ANYONE FIND THE VIDEO just shown on The #RandiRhodes Show of the guy interviewing T**** supporters asking them what they think about Gay "Pride" supporters who wave flags, wearing hats and flaunting the ideology in peoples faces (while MAGAts whine about how they are condemned simply for who they are and how they dress)?
A stunning lack of self-awareness. 😵 🤦♂️

And "dangerous" b/c it raises the specter of "okay, we've even now. No more need for #AffirmativeAction".
No more #VotingRightsAct to protect minorities from #GerryMandering & #RedLining. Red States are *sure* to embrace this new "equality" and make it *illegal* for any business to "discriminate" (which they will define) against whites.
"#Reparations" in the form of gov't services or opportunity is the way to go. But "cash" to individuals? Yeesh.

🧵 (1\) #RandiRhodes #MMFlint The idea of "cash" #Reparations to *individuals* is not only ridiculous, but *dangerous*:
If you're half-white, do you get only 1/2 the money? 1/8 white? Deduct 1/8th?
What if your ancestors came from a FREE State? Are you still entitled to reparations? Some but not as much if your ancestors were slaves?
Who pays to trace your family tree? Do we reimburse people the cost of documenting their lineage?
(con't)...

HERE'S THE VIDEO #RandiRhodes aired on her show today of Trump & his people in 2021 loading a dozen or so large boxes onto a Lear jet headed for his Bedminster Resort just 3 days after getting a call from the FBI asking him to return any classified documents. 🤔 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11204191/DailyMail-com-video-Donald-Trump-boarding-plane-loaded-heavy-file-boxes-resurfaces.html
#RandiRhodes just made a great point on her show:
Notice Republicans aren't screaming about the #border / #BorderCrisis anymore? The end of #Title42 was supposed to be the end of the world.
"So what happened? Well, Title42 had no penalty for repeat offenders while #Title8 (which we operate under now) does not."
I'd add: Republicans said the end of Title42 meant an "#OpenBorder" for so long that the urgency to cross NOW went away ("Open border means I can try to cross ANYTIME.) 😆

...and of course, it's a "temporary" #DebtCeiling deal that just kicks-the-can down the road until after the 2024 election. #RandiRhodes @RandiRhodes
Prayers going out to my birth sister, #RandiRhodes on the passing of her mom. Giving my love and condolences to her and her family. 🙏😢❤️
