Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, the target of much pro-Trump ire for not helping to flip the 2020 election results, reported raising about $249,000 in the last three months. That's less than half what Trump's candidate, Jody Hice, raised @gapol @AJCGaPolitics

Waiting periods. Works for gun related suicide too.

Cherokee County Sheriff Frank Reynolds says the suspect in a shooting spree that left eight people dead, including six people of Asian descent, bought the gun he used just hours earlier.

@TexasFsr @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio Hey I agree with you, I didn’t do a good job getting that across and that’s my bad. It’s possible for that to be true & for Trump to be worse.

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@Radosity @reallyhotpants @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio This is what I’m attempting to say — I agree with you 100%! Obviously I’m not doing a good job getting this across. 😔

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@davidme20021241 @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio No I’m not saying that at all! The crime bill was racist as hell. But if we don’t leave any room for nuance and degrees of severity when it comes to these issues, we end up in a ‘both sides are bad’ situation which doesn’t end up well for anybody.

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@reallyhotpants @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio Ok, I see the extrapolation, I’m sorry. I definitely disagree with the generalization that racists can only be Republicans. The Dem Party of course has its own race problems. I guess what I’m trying to say is that it’s possible for 1 party to be worse than the other on an issue.

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@PlanetCarnival @jimsthatguy @Will_Bunch FWIW I agree on you on this nuance, I’m sorry other progressives are hitting back. He’s a narcissist who has created a fascist administration because it suits his narcissistic goals. That makes his actions & his admin. fascist — it doesn’t just negate the severity of the fascism!

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@valleyofthebees @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio Of course I def don’t disagree with the fact that Biden did sponsor the crime bill. But I think what I’m trying to say is just that if the implication is “the democrats are bad too,” it sends the message that the problems on race in both parties are equivalent to one another.

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@powerpsi2381 @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio I don’t agree with many of his policies. The crime bill should have never happened & it’s shameful that it did. Democrats are not perfect on race. But surely we can agree that for a politician to apologize at all is pretty uncommon...

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@erykahbadewey @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio I agree.

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@valleyofthebees @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio I agree with that statement!

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio Biden has claimed that he believes now the crime bill was a mistake. & I was never a huge Biden fan. I agree with you, no party is perfect on race. Unfortunately that probably will never be true. But it’s possible for one to be better on issues than another u know.

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@Chart_Charles @Tamchanted @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio I have never been a huge Biden fan historically, I think it was a mistake, but he has said it was a mistake too which I respect. I agree neither party is perfect on race by any means. But we gotta choose you know 😔 PS. Also a Hayley Williams fan!

[Vivian Zingleman @vivellimac]

@Tamchanted @valleyofthebees @itsJeffTiedrich @marcorubio Two groups that both roughly encompass 50% of the country can both do bad things. I completely agree with you. I have many criticisms of the Democratic Party myself. But when it comes to choosing between two, it’s possible for one to be worse on these issues than the other.
