  1. Trump's fitness to lead, in light of the Epstein files:

    A passenger airplane pilot.
    What's a reasonable level of confidence that that pilot will be fit to complete the flight safely?

    99,999 in a hundred thousand?
    That'd have you ok with one pilot somewhere on Earth every day being unfit to fly safely.

    After seeing Epstein files extracts, what confidence do you have that Donald Trump is a fit person to lead the USA?

  2. . Watching Epstein victims be vindicated decades later should force a reckoning. Powerful men lie. Networks protect them. Time has a way of exposing what institutions bury. #Epstein #TrumpFiles #AnitaHill #ClarenceThomas .

  3. . Anita Hill was calm. She was credible. She had nothing to gain. Clarence Thomas had everything to lose. The system decided that her voice was expendable. #AnitaHill #ClarenceThomas #Epstein #TrumpFiles .

  4. . The Anita Hill story is not ancient drama. It is a case study in how powerful men are protected and how women are interrogated for telling the truth. #AnitaHill #TrumpFiles #Epstein #ClarenceThomas .

    And here's me all prepared to blame Trump.
    But no, this was on #Biden's watch. I kept my mouth shut during the elections, partly not knowing, partly thinking "Anything beats Trump".
    But what a stinker.

    And, of course, Trump is worse and going to be much worse still.

  7. Better late than never?

    Acknowledging two women who stood up and blew the whistle on sexist patriarchal shits.

    SCOTUS would be less corrupted, less degraded, less fascist if those women had been listened too.

    If the #AmericanExperiment ever restarts it'll be with courage like #AnitaHill and #ChristineBlaseyFord showed.

    Saw a Trump-appointed #Wray getting away with pulling this shit with #Keggers under Trump1.

    Joe Biden has learnt nothing from ignoring #AnitaHill and supporting #ClarenceThomas for a SCOTUS seat?

    #AHaemorrhagingLegacy

  9. #MarkPaoletta penned other pieces defending #ClarenceThomas including one in which he called #AnitaHill a liar.

    WaPo revealed that #LeonardLeo steered at least $1.8M into a PR & online astroturf campaign to attack a 2016 HBO film about the Clarence Thomas’ nomination. #Paoletta was the face of the campaign & was paid $300k by Leo’s Judicial Education Project….

    When asked, Paoletta confirmed, “my good friend Leonard Leo’s group provided funding for this work,” including the Thomas film.

  10. @uspolitics

    Makes #Biden and the rest of those good ol' boys look like chumps for not listening to #AnitaHill and instead green-flagging a player with Trumpian ethics to get a seat on the SCOTUS.

  12. ...So I really do reject this idea that things will change if more people will come forward, if more women would just step up. My feeling is that more things will change if we provide systems and processes so that people can come forward."

    --Professor Anita Hill

    Just thinking about how Prof. Anita Hill and Dr Christine Blasey Ford are goddamn heroes.

    Why does the Senate fail to regard the testimony of individuals like #AnitaHill and #ChristineBlaseyFord as credible and disqualifying, and consequently refuse to confirm the justices involved?

    Do we need to elect more women to the #Senate?

    #scotus #womensrights #sexualharassment #senatejudiciary

  14. @heidilifeldman The #AnitaHill testimony should have been sufficient to show he was unfit for the office. Just as the #ChristineBlaseyFord testimony should have been sufficient to show #BrettKavanaugh was equally unfit for office. But #EvangelicalPatriarchy places no value on women’s lives, opinions, bodies.

    High confidence in the capability and the honest intentions of a candidate require this harsh standard for rejecting.

    The media and the elected members of congress failed to make this clear to the public when #ClarenceThomas was approved to SCOTUS with evidence from #AnitaHill about his abusive actions waved aside.
    We've seen since just how poor a choice Clarence was. He's made the Court look corrupt.

  16. The proceedings pitted #AnitaHill, a fmr colleague of #ClarenceThomas’s who also was #Black, against an all-#male, all-#White Senate #Judiciary Cmte that, in the view of many #women, did not engage respectfully with Hill’s allegations that Thomas had #SexuallyHarassed her.

    “Every woman that watched that changed,” #Feinstein told the New York Times in 2018. “I think change happened at that moment.”
