5. In some states, the disparity is even starker. In Ohio, for example, Fortune 250 companies gave $1,472,988 to anti-abortion legislators in the 2020 election cycle, and just $189,293 to legislators that support abortion rights. https://t.co/0GWVmt2NTJ — PolitiTweet.org

4. Top corporate donors to anti-abortion politicians in states considering implementing a Texas-like abortion ban include: @GetSpectrum (265K) @comcast (252K) @ATT (238K) https://t.co/0GWVmt2NTJ — PolitiTweet.org

3. The data undermines the idea that corporate donations are inconsequential because corps give equally to "both sides." In the states where abortion rights are most at risk, corps are providing a 5-to-1 financial advantage to anti-abortion legislators. https://t.co/0GWVmt2NTJ — PolitiTweet.org

2. Exclusive new data reveals that in seven key states (AR, FL, SC, SD, KY, OK, OH) Fortune 250 corporations donated $5.7M to legislators that oppose abortion rights and just $1M to legislators that support abortion rights in the 2020 cycle https://t.co/0GWVmt2NTJ https://t.co/1Rld2GGDJp — PolitiTweet.org

1. Texas is just the beginning. At least seven states are considering copying Texas' draconian abortion ban. The politicians behind this effort have overwhelming support from the nation's largest corporations https://t.co/0GWVmt2NTJ — PolitiTweet.org

We've been conditioned to believe that criticizing Bush for 9/11, and the response is "unpatriotic" No, what is unpatriotic is exploiting the fear and anxieties that Americans had after 9/11 to launch an ideological war — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum
One of the most incredible political accomplishments of my lifetime is George W Bush casting himself as a "hero" of 9/11 even though he 1. Ignored intelligence warning him of an attack in the Summer of 2001 2. Responded with the disastrous war in Iraq 3. Never caught Bin Laden — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
None of the people who were responsible for pushing the country into the Iraq War paid any price. In fact, you can watch them on TV today, criticizing Biden's decision to withdraw from Afghanistan. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
We fetishize the "unity" in the country after 9/11. But that unity came at a very high cost. My lesson is that critical thinking and skepticism are essential at all times, especially after a tragedy. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
Also #neverforget how the tragedy of 9/11 was exploited to launch the Iraq War, which cost hundreds of thousands of lives and trillions of dollars — PolitiTweet.org

9. This is why independent media is so critical @ATT owns several major media outlets, including CNN. That makes it awkward, at best, for these outlets to report on AT&T And it's why https://t.co/Gl6evXRDcZ does not accept advertising Sign up free ➡️ https://t.co/TfpCItdVSo — PolitiTweet.org

8. This all happens behind closed doors. @ATT does not want you to know what politicians it is supporting and it does not want you to know how it uses its economic power to censor critics. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@ATT 7. This is the same approach @ATT is using in response to our recent reporting identifying AT&T as a top funder of Texas' abortion ban. It is ignoring all requests for comment but promoting tweets that cast AT&T as a champion of women. https://t.co/E5C5WrFwXx https://t.co/76iN8HNPef — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
6. So @ATT is using its economic power to censor accurate messages about its funding of voter suppression laws that target minority voters and then replacing those messages with marketing claiming that it stands for "equality" — PolitiTweet.org

@Greenpeace 5. If you walk by the same billboard TODAY, it is an @ATT ad. It says: "BE THERE. STAND FOR EQUALITY. EMBRACE FREEDOM. MAKE A DIFFERENCE." https://t.co/YO86S6DHRM — PolitiTweet.org

4. @Greenpeace's digital ad was supposed to run for 10 days. But was taken down after just 2 days. Why? The company that operates the billboard told @Greenpeace that "their property partner complained about the content." — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@ATT 3. Last Friday, September 3, @Greenpeace purchased a digital billboard in the Chinatown neighborhood in DC. The billboard is right above DC's flagship @ATT store. It said: "DON'T LET AT&T WRECK OUR DEMOCRACY. TELL AT&T TO STOP FUNDING RACIST VOTER SUPPRESSION" https://t.co/jhEu5J4fjy — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@ATT 2. As I've detailed in https://t.co/Gl6evXRDcZ, @ATT is a major supporter of state legislators pushing voter suppression laws. For example, they contributed 575K to the sponsors of Texas' voter suppression bill https://t.co/rX5e4iByKb — PolitiTweet.org
