@RepJimBanks 2. @RepJimBanks went on Fox News and bragged about all the success he was having "moving on" from corporate PAC donations "It's the right way forward for the Republican Party." https://t.co/axsr5pkDsJ https://t.co/nJcfsuU9qa — PolitiTweet.org

1. In March, @RepJimBanks wrote a highly publicized memo arguing that the GOP needed to become the party of "working people." He argued that Republicans should rebuff corporate cash and attack Democrats for accepting corporate cash https://t.co/axsr5pkDsJ https://t.co/d4Qo0mNGwU — PolitiTweet.org

@blueorigin @NRCC Blue Origin had a very successful launch from a PR perspective today. Much of the media bought what they were selling. But if you are interested in accountability journalism that digs deeper, check out my newsletter. Sign up here ➡️ https://t.co/TfpCItdVSo — PolitiTweet.org

4. Beyond the health risks, it is also forcing children to continue to wear masks and take other precautions in order to attend school, etc. This likely wouldn't be necessary if more eligible adults were vaccinated. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. And it also endangers everyone by giving the virus a chance to replicate and potentially mutate to something that can evade vaccines. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
2. It endangers millions of kids under 12 (who are not eligible to get the vaccine) and the immunocompromised (who might not get robust protection from vaccines). — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. I know we are supposed to describe the decision to get a vaccine as a "personal decision" because that makes vaccine hesitant people more comfortable but it's really not true. The decision not to get a vaccine is a bad decision that endangers everyone else. — PolitiTweet.org

2. Barr ran the DOJ as a political appendage of the Trump White House. But Garland has shown a lot of deference to Barr's decisions. For example, Garland backed Barr's decision to defend Trump in a defamation case filed by Trump's alleged rape victim https://t.co/iwON5j4Nt9 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. I know that the decision not to prosecute Ross for lying to Congress was made while Barr was AG. But that doesn't let Garland off the hook. The decision of Barr not to prosecute Ross is not binding on Garland. https://t.co/iwON5j4Nt9 — PolitiTweet.org

UPDATE After 1/6, @LibertyMutual suspended all political donations. On 6/29, @LibertyMutual donated donated 15K to the @NRCC, which is supporting the reelection of more than 130 GOP House members that voted to overturn the election — PolitiTweet.org

@nycsouthpaw Right but Doocy also encouraged people to be vaccinated and it was the wood of the NY Post. I’m not saying it makes up for all the damage they’ve done or that they are even, in aggregate, helping right now. But I’d rather have some pro-vaccine messages on Fox than none — PolitiTweet.org

@nycsouthpaw What’s not? — PolitiTweet.org

Pretty clear there was a memo sent around Fox News today telling hosts to encourage people to get vaccinated. A positive move but should have been done six months ago — PolitiTweet.org

Free idea for Trump to generate tons of positive press Take a tour of deep red states and counties Hold big rallies but this time, instead of lying about 2020, tell the crowd it’s their patriotic duty to get vaccinated Have mass distributions clinics set up in the parking lot — PolitiTweet.org

@Noahpinion @desertcran As the person who said I was inaccurate acknowledged, there used to be a requirement to teach about MLK Jr’s work and it was removed as part of an anti-CRT bill. So my original tweet was accurate — PolitiTweet.org

5. And there are many other companies that suspended all donations after 1/6 (GOP + Dems) and haven't contributed to GOP objectors. It's having an impact. 100+ GOP members who voted to overturn the election have received less than they did at this time last cycle — PolitiTweet.org

4. Companies that have kept their promises after 1/6 (con't): @MorganStanley @Nasdaq @Nike @PNCBank @PwC @SPGlobal @sonymusic @StateStreet @TXInstruments @UMG_News @Verizon @Disney @warnermusic @zillow https://t.co/kGuQbCOJDW — PolitiTweet.org

2. The companies I'm highlight here: - After 1/6, pledged not to donate to any of the 147 Republican objectors - Have not donated to any objectors since - Have not donated to any multi-candidate committees (like the NRCC and NRSC) that support Republican objectors — PolitiTweet.org

1. I've been spending a lot of time highlighting companies that have broken their commitments after January 6 But this has created a somewhat inaccurate picture because many companies of kept their promises So I've created a list of those companies. Follow along if interested — PolitiTweet.org
