Maine Beacon — June 21, 2019:
Political scientist Sandy Maisel, a professor at Colby College, suspects that Democratic efforts to link [Senator Susan] Collins to Trump, in part through her vote for Kavanaugh, will be effective, but that talking about lower-level nominees won’t, because few Mainers follow politics at that level. “I don’t think anything other than Kavanaugh will get any traction at all.”
OUR MISSION -— CREATE THE TRACTION.
How do we create the traction?
With a one-page Fact Sheet/Resume for each of the worst trump judges, which we are going to put in people’s faces at a every opportunity. Fascism-at-a-glance. I’m betting people will NOT like what they see.
Where can we get these one-page Fact Sheets on the judges?
Here — RatfuckingTheCourts.com.
From the ACTION page:
The Fact Sheets report the details about the unfit, biased judges corruptly rammed through the judicial confirmation process by Trump and Moscow Mitch.
The Fact Sheets are one page, quick to read and easy to share. The post on each judge includes further extensive background information if you want to learn more.
It's not enough to say these judges are "bad." To persuade, we must share the specific facts of their own records.
Trump and McConnell are counting on the resumes of their hand-picked extremist judges going unnoticed. The opposite needs to happen - we need to shine a light on these judges and their real resumes. Download/copy Fact Sheets and post them on Instagram, share them on Facebook, tweet them, mail them, hang them on public bulletin boards, kiosks or in bathroom stalls, or hand them out on campus. #RFingTheCourts #WhitewashingTheBench Force accountability on every GOP senator who voted to confirm these judges. The American people deserve answers from these senators about their votes.
