@whiskeynachos a general opposition to federal troops deployed in riots, not a separation of powers objection. (When I say others I mean in the journalism convo about Bennet, not wider societal debate about what to do.) — PolitiTweet.org

@whiskeynachos I agree that Cotton's oped was wrongheaded for that reason. I wrote as much at the time https://t.co/HicaDHePyl I disagree that the op-ed endangered NYT journalists, as if deployment of federal troops somehow obviously do, and I took how others were objecting to be — PolitiTweet.org

When the oped was published the first thing I thought of was the National Guard deploying to the Los Angeles of my youth, and I can't recall anyone arguing that was a dangerous authoritarian move that endangered journalists. Are any of you against that deployment? — PolitiTweet.org

A SCOTUS justice can sell a lot of books, so there's a huge financial incentive to ignore the staffers. But what happens when the atrocious logic they display in their letter is applied to authors with less fame, power, and upside? It's rational to be concerned about that. — PolitiTweet.org

I was unaware this billionaire backs reforms that would reduce housing costs for workers and improve racial justice by decreasing residential segregation. It's always nice to see a rich person setting aside the special interests of the propertied classes. — PolitiTweet.org

QR-code menus are not really an advance. Even when everything goes just right––when everyone’s phone is charged, when the Wi-Fi is strong enough to connect, when the link works––they force a distraction that lingers through dessert and digestifs. https://t.co/V8PcRcdJ1X — PolitiTweet.org

@nwbvt The penalty for destroying a painting should be much harsher than the penalty for not destroying but damaging it and forcing staff to clean up after you and increase security, but the latter should still carry some punishment as it would if done out of spite or for a bad cause — PolitiTweet.org

Activists who destroy art should be punished just as anyone else who destroys art would, regardless of what cause their vandalism is meant to advance. Otherwise anyone who wants attention will start destroying art and many cultural treasures will be destroyed. — PolitiTweet.org
