3. So the Arizona Senate, controlled by Republicans who promote Trump's false claims of voter fraud, subpoenaed 2.1M ballots and sent them to the former home of the Phoenix Suns Then, they put a conspiracy theorist from Florida in charge of the operation https://t.co/j6LwSEAZId — PolitiTweet.org

2. It's important to establish that the votes in Maricopa County were already counted, audited, and approved by the REPUBLICAN-CONTROLLED BOARD that administers elections there Lawsuits challenging the count were thrown out of court https://t.co/j6LwSEAZId — PolitiTweet.org

1. You may have heard something about the "audit" of votes being conducted right now in Maricopa County Arizona. But I don't think there is a full appreciate for just how BONKERS it is Follow along if interested https://t.co/j6LwSEAZId — PolitiTweet.org

The great news is you can watch it all online. WTF is happening? No one knows. These ballots have been counted and recounted multiple times and certified by the Republican-controlled county election board https://t.co/0gcfeSPfpK — PolitiTweet.org

Arizona has turned over 2.1 million ballots to Cyber Ninjas, a random Florida company run by a "Stop the Steal" conspiracy theorist A bunch of tables have been set up in an auditorium so the ballots can be viewed under UV light. No one knows why I'm sure this will end well — PolitiTweet.org

9. In some cases these companies have released statements, but there is still ambiguity. None have agreed to the demands of the End Uyghur Forced Labor Coalition to exit the region. Sign up for the newsletter for updates and accountability journalism. https://t.co/TfpCItdVSo — PolitiTweet.org

8. Here are some of the companies we didn't hear from about Xinjiang cotton: @Nike @adidas @GAP @Burberry @lululemon @UniqloUSA https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
7. But the State Department describes what is happening to Muslim Uyghurs in Xinjiang as "genocide." Are companies really trading our ability to speak clearly about moral issues for access to Chinese consumers? https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
6. So this helps explain why the companies we contacted didn't want to provide a clear answer about whether their products contain cotton from Xinjiang They don't want to be targeted by the Chinese government They want access to Chinese consumers https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
5. @hm was targeted by the ruling party on Chinese social media, store locations removed ride-sharing apps, products pulled from online retailers. In response H&M REMOVED THEIR STATEMENT OF CONCERN ABOUT HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES IN XINJIANG https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
4. Around the same time, individual clothing companies, like @hm, began to express "concern" about practices in Xinjiang This year, the Chinese government struck back https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. Most major clothing brands are members of the Better Cotton Initiative. Up until last year the BCI was "certifying" cotton from Xinjiang. In October 2020 that stopped, citing "sustained allegations of forced labour and other human rights abuses" https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
2. Popular Information contacted 17 consumer clothing brands and asked them to clarify whether their products contained cotton produced in Xinjiang. Only one provided a response There is a reason why companies don't want to answer this basic question https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. According to the State Department, cotton from the Chinese territory of Xinjiang is being harvested with forced manual labor Is that cotton in the products you buy? We decided to ask major clothing brands to find out. Follow along if interested. https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org

There are a lot of tweets about people feeling sick for a day or two after their second shot so I figured I’d note that I didn’t get sick at all after my second shot of Pfizer. And I know there are plenty of other folks who has the same experience. — PolitiTweet.org
