@AsraNomani @StacyLangton They aren't just award-winning books to "me." Both books won the "Alex Award" from the American Library Association which is awarded annually to "ten books written for adults that have special appeal to young adults ages 12 through 18." — PolitiTweet.org

@AsraNomani @allinwithchris @TerryMcAuliffe @GlennYoungkin @HarryJ4Justice @StacyLangton @DefendingEd @coalitionforTJ So if I understand you correctly, your objection to my reporting is that it's racist? — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@HarryJ4Justice @DefendingEd I'm saying if you oppose the material you should probably describe it accurately. You shouldn't rely on a mischaracterization of the material to make your argument. — PolitiTweet.org

4. Manchin is reportedly not supportive of a proposal to guarantee 12 weeks of paid family leave. That policy would: Increase income in WV by $198.5 million a year increase the number of workers taking paid leave annually in WV by 88K https://t.co/wLhG3sZWhF — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. Manchin wants to limit the expansion of the Child Tax Credit to families earning no more than 60K and add a work requirement. That policy would: Strip eligibility from 190K children in WV Cost WV families more than $250B in annual purchasing power https://t.co/wLhG3sZWhF — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
2. Manchin's opposes the Clean Energy Standard which would: Prevent 250 premature deaths in WV annually Add 3.5K jobs in WV Increase earnings in WV by $172M Help WV, which is highly exposed to flood damage, avoid the worst impacts of climate change https://t.co/wLhG3sZWhF — PolitiTweet.org

1. Much of the discussion on Manchin and his demands on the reconciliation bill has focused on POLITICAL STRATEGY But there is a more central question: How would Manchin's positions impact his constituents? Let's go over some FACTS https://t.co/wLhG3sZWhF — PolitiTweet.org

@HarryJ4Justice @DefendingEd I understand if you have objections to sexual content in the high school library but why do you keep claiming that the books included "pedophilia" when it was clearly based on a misreading? — PolitiTweet.org

The people making the choice to forgo vaccination believe they haven't hurt anyone but the truth is there are victims. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
When you choose not to be vaccinated, you are not making a personal choice that only impacts you. You are choosing to expose immunocompromised people to a greater risk of a fatal illness. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
FYI: Colin Powell's death is precisely why getting vaccinated is not a "personal choice" Unvaccinated people are far more likely to contract and spread COVID And there are millions of people like Powell w/compromised immune systems who don't have a robust response to vaccines — PolitiTweet.org

"The $5 trillion in wealth now held by 745 billionaires is two-thirds more than the $3 trillion in wealth held by the bottom 50 percent of U.S. households " — PolitiTweet.org

"America’s billionaires have grown $2.1 trillion richer during the pandemic, their collective fortune skyrocketing by 70% —from just short of $3 trillion at the start of the COVID crisis on March 18, 2020, to over $5 trillion on October 15 of this year" https://t.co/yDZJNs06gB — PolitiTweet.org

20. Langton has also filed a complaint with Virginia's attorney general asking for a criminal investigation into the library's decision to carry these two books. Her move was announced in a press release from Educators for Youngkin https://t.co/iQB03m4s8a — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
19. Jackson's speech was filmed by PDE's Nomani and posted on Twitter with a link back to PDE's website. On October 19, Youngkin will return to Fairfax County to highlight a "school system that has told parents they don't matter." https://t.co/iQB03m4s8a — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
18. The books are off the library shelves pending review, but Jackson and PDE have helped to keep the issue alive. On October 7, Jackson returned to the Fairfax County School Board to give a speech about "porn and pedophilia" in school library books https://t.co/iQB03m4s8a — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
17. But McAuliffe bumbled his reply and defended the veto as if it did apply to library books. McAuliffe's answer is now in heavy rotation in a Youngkin ad featuring Youngkin's false charge, Langton's speech at the school board https://t.co/iQB03m4s8a https://t.co/SR0w5ToEYb — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
16. Youngkin's attack was false. He claimed a bill vetoed by McAuliffe in 2016 would have informed parents that the library was carrying the book. But that bill only related to instructional materials used in class, not library books https://t.co/iQB03m4s8a https://t.co/l48o2qSzi4 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
15. But the Youngkin campaign pounced anyway. PDE's video was posted to the Educators for Younkin Facebook page Youngkin himself used the issue to attack McAuliffe at the final debate. https://t.co/iQB03m4s8a — PolitiTweet.org
