@GabrielSterling @huntigula @zoommeup @mattklewis Sure but the issue is the kind of evidence you are demanding. You are saying you need to produce a person who was unable to vote because of their race. Even during Jim Crow, people were excluded for not being able to count jelly beans, not for being Black — PolitiTweet.org

As a reminder, https://t.co/Gl6evY9e4x uncovered evidence that the Daily Wire was breaking Facebook's rules, Facebook admitted the Daily Wire was breaking Facebook's rules, and then Facebook declined to impose any penalty on Daily Wire for doing so https://t.co/MQYlND27C5 — PolitiTweet.org

Over the weekend, SIX of the top ten biggest stories on Facebook were from the Daily Wire, Ben Shapiro's far-right aggregation site. Is this Facebook giving people what they want? Or has Facebook created an algorithm that provides an advantage to right-wing clickbait? https://t.co/2Pi76Nlg4a — PolitiTweet.org

Thus far, corporations have done VERY LITTLE to stop unnecessary voting restrictions pushed by Republicans in around the country @SenRickScott, who promoted the lies used to justify these bills, is threatening legislative retribution to make sure it stays that way https://t.co/lroFmBl8gU — PolitiTweet.org

.@Cigna pledged to end donations to any member who "hindered the peaceful transition of power" Then it donated to 6 GOPers who voted to overturn the election results Now, Cigna claims VOTES TO OVERTURN THE ELECTION are "by definition, part of the peaceful transition of power" https://t.co/4SM6bUEucG — PolitiTweet.org

@GabrielSterling @zoommeup @mattklewis Do you believe that unless someone can “produce” a person who was unable to vote “because of their race,” there is no effort to suppress votes along racial lines? Is that the standard? — PolitiTweet.org

This headline is a bit misleading. Fundraising surged for a select few of the loudest voices. But 2/3 of those who voted to overturn the election raised less than they did in the first quarter of the last election cycle. — PolitiTweet.org

13. And that's about it. There will be increasing pressure from corporate lobbyists for PACs to resume contributions to the 147 Republicans soon. For updates and accountability journalism, sign up for the newsletter. https://t.co/TfpCIsWktO — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
12. Several companies pledged to suspend donations to the 147 Republicans and then donated to multi-candidate committees that support the objectors like the @NRSC, @NRCC, and @hcfpac. This group includes @ATT, @Intel, and @Cigna. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
11. After 1/6 @JetBlue said it had made "the decision to temporarily pause all contributions as we review the political landscape." In February JetBlue donated @repmalliotakis, who voted to overturn the election. https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
10. Another major exception to the rule was @Cigna After 1/6, Cigna said it would "discontinue support of any elected official who...hindered a peaceful transition of power In Q1 of 2021, Cigna donated to 6 Republicans who voted to overturn the election https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
9. After 1/6, @USChamber said "There are some members who, by their actions will have forfeited the support of the US Chamber of Commerce. Period." In the first 3 months of 2021, the Chamber gave to two Republicans who voted to overturn the election https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@Toyota @RepAndyBiggsAZ 8. Toyota also said it does "not believe it is appropriate to judge members of Congress solely based on their votes on election certification." This language was taken word-for-word from a memo issued by the @USChamber in March https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto https://t.co/wyxWZOi9nV — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@Toyota @RepAndyBiggsAZ 7. @Toyota claims that it "decided against giving to some members who, through their statements and actions, undermine the legitimacy of our elections and institutions" But if Biggs qualifies, who was excluded? https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@Toyota 6. Among the recipients of @Toyota's cash was @RepAndyBiggsAZ. On January 6, Biggs tweeted that he would "lead the charge" and "fight" to overturn the election results. He also promised to "produce documents" during the debate with evidence of "fraud." https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto https://t.co/d2bgfLfXnY — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
5. The biggest exception to the rule was @Toyota After 1/6, Toyota said it was "assessing our future PAC criteria" Toyota sent contributions totaling $62,000 to the campaigns of FORTY REPUBLICANS who voted to overturn the election results https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
4. Some high-profile objectors were able to replace the loss of PAC money with individual donations, but most were not 2/3 of the Republican objectors raised less in the first three months of 2021 than they did in the first three most of the last cycle https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. The # of corporate PACs suspending donations to the 147 GOPers was MUCH LARGER than publicly announced About 170 companies said they were suspending donations But of 1100 corporate PACs that donated to this group last cycle, only 70 donated in Q1 https://t.co/VXnjFO9rto — PolitiTweet.org
