. @GavinNewsom it is imperative that you sign SB 493 to protect the rights of victims of sexual assault and harassment in CA colleges. @EleniForCA

I want to introduce you to the Trumpers who oppose this bill. They pretend to be "just moms of sons." So let's meet them.
Cynthia Garrett heads an org called "FACE."

I invite you to pay a visit to Cynthia Garrett's twitter account and peruse the various bizarre right-wing nonsense purveyed there, including retweets of Charlie Kirk, who runs TPUSA, a group listed on @splcenter's hate watch.
Here's Cynthia Garrett promoting Trump's nomination for the Nobel Prize.
Here's Cynthia Garrett promoting whatever the hell this is.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting "Judge Jeanine Pirro Fans" attacking our CA Senator and nominee for VP Kamala Harris.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting an attack on our CA Congressman @RepSwalwell for telling the truth about COVID -- Garrett is retweeting COVID denialism.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting a victim blaming attack on a woman who was sexually harassed, saying that she should "wear a different dress."
Here's Cynthia Garrett tweeting out an attack on critical race studies, and supporting Trump's attack on bias training.
And here she is promoting a tweet that compares Academy Award diversity rules to -- and I am not making this up -- Nazism.
Here's Cynthia Garrett tweeting Q-Anon type conspiracy theories about Michelle Obama.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting that Trump is a "powerful bulwark against Islamism." So that's has fuckall to do with just being a "due process" advocate.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting anti-masker "Rally for Freedom" right wing "activist" Robby Starbuck.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting someone blaming Californians for wildfires and calling us "tree hugging morons." I think this tweet is partly aimed at you @GavinNewsom but hey crazy gonna crazy.
Cynthia Garrett is not "just a mom" advocating due process. This is an operative who promotes the likes of Charlie Kirk, who promotes COVID denialism, and who promotes Donald Trump above all else.

@GavinNewsom women are counting on you. Sign SB493 @knowyourIX @EqualRightsAdv
Apparently we can add Q-Anon adherents and evidently anti-Semitic Lizard People conspiracy theorists to the basket of deplorables who oppose SB 493.

@GavinNewsom women demand justice for rape survivors now. Sign the bill today. @EqualRightsAdv
Also there is "Alice True," which may not even be a real person's name. "Alice" is legit QAnon. She also runs a conspiracy website called Save Our Sons that has a whole #BrockTurnerTruther website. This is who Betsy DeVos listened to in gutting Title IX. @RepSwalwell
Survivors were discounted while actual Q-Anon people were helping to gut Title IX. That is where we are right now and why we badly need SB 493 to be signed into law, @GavinNewsom.

Do not be fooled by fake "due process" talk. These are supporters of the pussy-grabber in chief
Here's Cynthia Garrett belittling Southern Poverty Law Center, and apparently defending her retweet of Charlie Kirk.
Here's Cynthia Garrett defending sex felon offender #BrockTurner as just "a typical drunk teenager having sex with a drunk woman."

Not sure what a typical teen looks like in her house.

Betsy DeVos listened to Garrett, along with her QAnon pal "Alice True" when gutting Title IX
Here's supposed "due process" advocate retweeting A-Anon pal "Alice True" against undocumented immigrants.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting JAMES FUCKING WOODS spreading misinformation about the USPS. This is who Betsy DeVos listened to instead of survivors.
Here's Cynthia Garrett promoting hydroxchlorquine and other COVID misinformation. @GavinNewsom, please ignore this kook and sign SB493. Women and survivors are counting on you.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting an attack on Anthony Fauci.
Here's Cynthia Garrett tweeting out a demand that OCR investigate schools that teach critical race theory.
Here's Cynthia Garrett, who poses as "just a mom of a son" concerned about fairness and due process, again retweeting known right wing conspiracy nut James Woods calling CNN "fake news."
Here's Cynthia Garrett tweeting out that minorities have lower SAT scores, arguing against affirmative action. She poses as just a concerned mom of a son who worries about due process while promoting Trump conspiracy theories and right wing causes.
Here's Cynthia Garrett retweeting the idea that Black women are privileged and "at the top" of the "oppression pyramid." I feel like stabbing my eyes out from reading her twitter. Stop treating this person like she makes sense.
Here's supposed due process lawyer and "just a mom" Cynthia Garrett again retweeting her Q-Anon pal who may not even be a real human being, "Alice True," about some QAnon bullshit. This is who Betsy DeVos was listening to instead of respected women's rights orgs like @nwlc
Here's Cynthia Garrett defending Hoover's Scott Atlas, who has been repudiated for spreading false COVID info. Garrett herself is a Stanford parent, seems to closely track the Hoover line, and is just one more reason for abolishing Hoover.
Here's Cynthia Garrett tweeting out bizarre stuff about antifa demonstrators driving to Kenosha with blacked out license plates.
In sum (though I will continue to add to this thread if warranted), Betsy DeVos empowered people who tweet Q-Anon type conspiracy theoriest, anti-maskers, pro-Trump crackpots when dismantling 30 years of civil rights protection for women in schools and colleges.
