When I heard Charleston police arrested 16 unsheltered people the day before Regatta by raiding public parks, I set out to figure what happened.
Turns out, those arrests were just the tip of the iceberg.🧵
While prisons are under a year long State of Emergency, colleges are in crisis, foster kids are being left at hotels, and taxpayers penalized for paying on time…but no call yet for Special Session because @WVGovernor is busy golfing with Saudis https://t.co/wrPG0wRqRh
I’ve hit 28 towns across WV, speaking to Mayors/ City Council members and/or setting up these meetings discussing the benefits of the Inflation Reduction Act for the past few months. It’s surprising how many communities in southern WV don’t even know how much money is available to them if they just apply. Practically the whole state qualifies.
No the act is not a war on Coal. It’s merely giving West Virginian communities the ability to be more self sustaining. For example EV stations encourage tourism, buildings can be made up to date/ code. You can tear down old buildings and build a park in its replacement. Bring these renewable industries to West Virginia. Allow a transition/ training period to take place to protect current workers and bring new jobs to our home. It is not a war on coal as workers come first before anything should close down period.
My sole goal is to bring money to WV through this work, especially to forgotten areas. If it’s out there and up for grabs then we need to have it here! Imagine the work created if every community applies.
BREAKING: Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell gets into a volcanic, profanity-riddled fight with Speaker Kevin McCarthy — and the details are just too juicy to pass up.
Buckle up, because this showdown was even more explosive than the Lauren Boebert VS. Marjorie Taylor Greene fight...
According to a new report, on June 21st, the day Republicans voted on their sham censure of Representative Adam Schiff, Democrats stood up on the House floor to yell "Shame!"
Swalwell was standing near the Speaker's podium and let loose on McCarthy—
"This is pathetic. You’re weak. You're a weak man," Swalwell said to him, giving voice to the opinion that most Americans share of McCarthy.
McCarthy grew so visibly upset that he had a "vein popping out of his forehead" and he stared down Swalwell for "about 10 seconds before walking away."
Things heated back up the next day.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the Capitol for a joint address to Congress. Right before he stepped up to the Speaker's podium, McCarthy spotted Swallwell and confronted him—
"If you ever say something like that to me again, I’m gonna kick the shit out of you," McCarthy said to Swalwell.
The two men got up "in each other's faces" so that they were "basically nose-to-nose" and Swalwell said "Are we really gonna do this?"
The two argued back and forth until finally McCarthy puffed up his chest and threatened physical violence again—
"Call me a pussy again, and I’ll kick your ass," said McCarthy.
Swallwell, never afraid to stand up to fascist bullies, looked him dead in the eye and clearly enunciated his response: "You. Are. A. Pussy."
The two men stared each other down until McCarthy caved like a coward and stepped aside to let Swalwell pass.
Yet again, we see that McCarthy is a craven, yellow-bellied, spineless, cowardly jellyfish masquerading as a man. He's scared to stand up to Donald Trump and he's not even a tenth of the man that Eric Swalwell is.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that McCarthy is a coward — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a “woke” new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKjCwX
BREAKING: @JimJusticeWV is calling on HEPC to delay emergency meeting tomorrow to consider closure of Alderson Broaddus. Justice wants to meet with HEPC, AB reps and legislators before there is a final decision on the financially-troubled school.
Remember when @Jason_Aldean came to small town charleston, wv, ordered 65 burritos from a local joint ten minutes before close and didn't tip anyone? Then his team reached out after the story went viral and the employees got let go?
Try that in a small town.
We're telling America the truth about @NoLabelsOrg.
They admit their plan elects Trump. They're funded by GOP megadonors and staffed by Trump and McConnell Republicans.
Lots of groups are in this fight, but @projectlincoln and @ldidemocracy have zero compromise with people who will put Trump back in the White House.
Join us.
The Republican party wants you to know that the student loan cancelation will cost $400 billion over the next 30 years.
What @GOP don't want you to know is their tax policies from just January 2017 - January 2021 cost America $2 trillion in 1 year and $7.5 trillion in 4 years.
Justice Samuel Alito’s wife leased land to an oil and gas firm as her husband heard cases involving the fossil fuel industry.
In May, Alito penned the majority decision for Sackett v. EPA, a decision which drastically scaled back the Clean Water Act.
