Nina Turner had questionable issues with Our Revolution

Nina better hope Shontel Brown doesn't bring up Turner's disastrous tenure as president of Our Revolution, where the money came up funny and the board had to stop her from hiring her anti-immigrant friend while fearing she intended to use OR to further her own political ambitions

POLITICO:


In a statement out Tuesday, Turner, the group’s president, noted that the comments by Tezlyn Figaro are not held by Turner, or by Our Revolution. On Fox News last year, Figaro cited President Donald Trump‘s “leadership” on the travel ban and said, “We are sick and tired of immigrants coming into the country and getting benefits that Americans do not get … what I’m seeing is not paying taxes, what I’m seeing is getting a lot of freebies that Americans do not get.”

Those comments and others — a month after Trump’s election in 2016 she tweeted “Please! #buildthewall” —have upset many in the organization. The Our Revolution board stopped Turner from installing Figora as the group’s chief of staff.

Anti-immigrant, supporter of Trump policies, & Fox News regular, Tezlyn Figaro was personally hired by Turner as OR's COS.

THIS IS WHO TURNER pals around with.
There is a reason why Turner never speaks ill of Republicans. Yet damns every Democrat trying to hold the line against the annhiliation of American Democracy.

There's a reason Turner's AMARE PR GROUP is supported by RU compromised MERCURY Global Lobbyists, whose CEO Kirill GORNCHENKO was a RU Putin associate of Paul Manafort.
There is a reason Turner hired Manafort's Ukraine electoral companion, Tad DeVine, to aid her future campaigns.

Hey, HELLO SOMEBODY 🤪? Can you tell us what Nina Turner's real game is here?

That's some shady bowl of shit we're being fed.
What's up with this Ms Turner?

Could SOMEBODY Also ask if Nina plans to maje her home in OH to address the need of those constituents, OR will she abandon them to go back home to Maryland?

Would be kinda good for OH-11 to know if they'll be represented locally, or not.

1. So, Nina gets to find out what it is like to have her own "sins," "lies," and tactics come back

to BITE her. Sometimes karma shows signs of making its rendezvous.

5. Bernie's BIG mistake was giving Nina Turner the power of position with Our Rev, in the 1st place

Who exactly is Nina working for then?

HELLO? SOMEBODY? ANYBODY???!!

[Sympthsical]

16. No one really cares

Outside of a small internet bubble that hates her.

People are worried about Covid, healthcare, putting food on the table, climate change, etc.

Seriously. No one except an internet few. Notice progressives stopped bothering in these threads weeks ago. They're just the same things spammed over and over and over.

Did she say something about a bowl of something? Can't recall. I'm sure someone will remind me.

[Nixie]

20. "Progressives". Is your post projection? If you're talking

about the “internet few” then we’ve seen that disappointed Bernie fans are the translation for “progressives.” The rest of the world has moved on from his losses. That’s why Nina sticks out like a bitter sore thumb. “Corporate” this and that … yawn. Nobody cares about that drivel.

58. Missed you, too!

[betsuni]

32. Seriously.

"Progressive" = someone who thinks Teddy Roosevelt/FDR/LBJ were anti-capitalist democratic socialists and that Bernie Sanders was the only one continuing that legacy, that the Democratic establishment are hopelessly corrupt elites with the same economic policies as Republicans and despise working and middle classes. Anti-establishment with the establishment being the Democratic Party as the true roadblock to progress. Us (pure, righteous) vs Them (corrupt, evil, immoral).

They really should've called themselves neoprogressives, less confusing. If was fashionable for a while, but as you say, why Nina sticks out like a bitter sore thumb.

[Nixie]

48. Well said, betsuni. Nina is not a progressive. They are all building a "brand" but now

the brand is based on proven losing lies and strategies. The Republicans love the brand builders, though. They love how they attack Democrats.

I like your nickname...neoprogressives. It fits exactly, and I might use it if that's okay!

[Blasphemer]

54. Good point. I will start calling them that. I am progressive but not in alignment with that set...nt

34. Hello again

It is great to see you posting

[Nixie]

46. Hi! Thank you so much! And I'm glad things have finally calmed down here

to where I can get my life back a little. Helping my mom sell her house, move closer to me and then during all that my husband needed surgery! It's been a whirlwind.

So glad to see you, too!

35. Well said

31. "No one really cares outside of a small internet bubble that hates her."?

Tune in for the press conference tomorrow at 11:00 AM at Mt. Olive Missionary Baptist Church in Cleveland. This is more than a small internet bubble. They, and probably those in that "small internet bubble" don't hate Nina Turner, but all want the truth to come out.

[Happy Hoosier]

38. Are you okay with all that? Is that what "progressives" support?

I anxiously await your reply. I am curious if "progressives" are okay with this kind of dirty mudslinging within the party.

[betsuni]

40. Most people worried about Covid, healthcare, food on the table, climate change, etc. want

legislators to do the actual job, which is building coalitions and passing legislation to help them. They're not dreaming of a revolution, or transforming the party because they think Democrats are corrupt neoliberal corporate elites, or interested in their representatives pledging no-compromise allegiance to slogans as purity tests.

The ones who want all that nonsense are only a small internet bubble.

[Hortensis]

55. Symph, shouldn't character and trustworthiness TOP the caring list?

Isn't ignoring the need to choose for good character and judgement where the trumpists and those who were tricked by liars into voting against Hillary went terribly wrong?

* Identify honest, trustworthy people first.

* Then identify people of good judgement. (Isn't refusing to vote Democrat a complete weed-out?)

* THEN choose among the winners someone worthy of support.

Just think! It'd be raining falling bad actors if more people did.

But only briefly.

6. Why would anyone with a decent reputation to protect ever Endorse this sketchy mess 🙄

Btw, the K-Street Lobbying group Nina put on hold to campaign in OH-11 is MERCURY GLOBAL LOBBYING GROUP.

[George II]

33. She founded "Amare Public Affairs" in late September 2020, and immediately paid herself...

....an annual salary of about $285,000. That lobbying group was backed financially by Mercury.

https://disclosures-clerk.house.gov/public_disc/financial-pdfs/2020/10039433.pdf

From September 28 through the end of 2020, she was paid a salary of $73,729.13, which extrapolates to an annual salary of $286,288.

She also worked for another lobbying group, "Action for a Progressive Future" and another "Business Consulting" company, "Turner's World Enterprises LLC".

7. Amazing Thread Budi

I wish it would go viral

[Budi]

8. Thanks. There are some dedicated fact checkers in the midst!

They miss NOTHING.

Ya can't hide your public history from these people.
Theirs is an ever lasting dedicated fight for our blessed American Democracy.

I can't wait till Rep Clyburn & his CBC members roll into town.
Believe it, there'll be a meet-up with the Cleveland Clergy

I'm told that James Clyburn's presence in the room, is unforgettable & profound.

We are in good hands 💙🍃

17. She hates Democrats because Clinton once didn't mention her name?

Okay, Nina Turner, I guess that's as good a reason as any other for your obvious Dem hatred over the years.

What a spiteful wreck she is. In that video she never mentions the republicans, the real enemies of the people. All her hate is directed straight at Democrats.

She's going to lose and she'll just get worse.

[lapucelle]

23. "President Clinton said everybody's name except mine."

I wonder what year that was.

[brush]

39. How long has it been since Bill Clinton was president?

[Chili]

19. Man!

What cheating is she talking about? In 2016 primaries? She sounds just like Trump himself.

[betsuni]

37. Clinging to the rigged primary conspiracy theory.

Central to the religion. Otherwise there's no martyr.

18. WOW.

The depths of her lies, corruption, and dark connections comes more to light every day.

Thank you for posting all of that - it's need-to-know.

And to think I used to like her. I thought she'd be a great benefit to the party someday. Then she took off her mask.

42. That's different. It's, like, "grassroots."

[George II]

44. She is a lobbyist that is back by Mercury Public Affairs, which has ties to trump, Paul Manafort....

....Erdogan, and the political disruption in Ukraine.

Mercury Public Affairs was founded by Kirill Goncharenko, who has quite a history.

43. Informative thread! So important to expose faithless A-holes marauding

around the Democratic party, promoting Putin-backed candidates and doing lasting damage to our ability to communicate to the American populace the strengths of our good Democratic candidates.

Honored guests of Putin and his propaganda network. They all look so very happy, don't they?

50. I wonder if the Shontel Brown campaign will bring this up and make it an issue?

Maybe they already have... does anyone know?

This can't be good news for Nina-T
