      Honest question. Can you name a person that fought harder in Congress for mass incarceration than Joe Biden? I’ve now counted dozens of laws that he wrote and passed before and after the Crime Bill. And show me ANYTHING he’s done proactively to right his wrongs. Anything.

      It’s like he’s selling a damn used car. “There are 60 new death penalties. BRAND NEW. 60!” “There are 70 additional enhancements of penalties. IE - you go to jail, LONGER.” Nobody fought harder for mass incarceration than Joe Biden.pic.twitter.com/saVriIT8Px

      3 years before the Crime Bill. Biden brags about a new death penalty for drug dealers, then brags that laws he passed will take everything from anyone convicted of drug dealing, then how he took away the ability of judges to use discretion on sentencing.pic.twitter.com/kbenPgBkl3

          To anyone saying we can’t talk about a candidate’s record- Icymi: There’s a part of democracy called primaries. The way it works is candidates run against each other. Voters compare their policies & records & then vote for their choice to decide who runs in the general election.

          It's one thing to be wrong on something and later down the road as you achieve understanding, reverse course. It's quite another to deny you were wrong to start with, & even worse to deny what you did even had an impact.

          🤔🤔🤔 does his older self still have that same thought process? I guess we may have to let his history be the sound board without knowing.

          Even if he’s not your first choice, we must stick together and support the one who wins the Primary.

          Hope you like Trump's second term. I follow you and agree with you on many things, mainly your activism. However, you coming out against any democrat now and doing the Republicans dirty work for them is akin to going to ballot box and voting for Trump.

          Biden is not my first choice either. But don’t do to him what you did to Hillary, or we’ll end up w the same result 🤡
