The fact that mainstream Republicans are reacting to this with hair trigger attacks on the FBI just shows what a sick, sad bunch they are. — PolitiTweet.org

“Donald Trump genuinely broke the same laws a lot of other prominent people have broken and genuinely deserves the same relatively minor punishments they’ve gotten” is a very live possibility here. — PolitiTweet.org

There are plenty of high profile cases of people with a stronger record of probity than Trump doing this — Petraeus most recently but also Sandy Berger and John Deutch — PolitiTweet.org

Abandoning the whole idea of asking people to pay higher energy prices was the right approach for our moment. But a future time may come when carbon pricing makes sense. “Higher prices without any offsetting useful revenue” is never going to be a good strategy. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Carbon pricing is an idea that makes sense on the merits but suffers fatal political problems. Supply constriction has the exact same substantive downsides but generates negative rather than positive tax revenue, so it’s much worse on the merits. https://t.co/6hmHLU58E3 — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Good @JHWeissmann on the death of “supply side” climate policy. The only point I’d add is that the problems with this approach aren’t just political. https://t.co/SoLTrXnikE — PolitiTweet.org

I think it’s actually good to have federal law enforcement. The FBI did a lot to curb the power of the mafia, for example. — PolitiTweet.org

DEFUND THE FBI!
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Republican Party politicians have so far done an impressive job of not contradicting that opinion while also not explicitly avowing it — but I’m really curious what they think and it seems to me this deserves to be the subject of at least a little public debate and scrutiny. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The intellectual leaders of the anti-abortion movement have a very clear stance that has nothing to do with federalism or the role of courts vs legislatures — it should always be illegal even in the first trimester and even for rape victims. https://t.co/cBqKOgtIfE https://t.co/Fran8mFaTO — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Here’s an obscure policy issue that people don’t talk about much — abortion rights or, if you prefer, the protection of unborn life. Remarkably neither of the top GOP presidential candidates has any known public position on federal policy here. https://t.co/cBqKOgtIfE — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
But to me again this raises the question of GOP elites’ putative preference for Ron DeSantis — how do you drop Trump if nobody will publicly criticize him and say “this guy does some bad stuff even though we prefer him to Dems and we don’t think he should be in charge”? — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
If that’s all this amounts to I’m going to preserve some personal dignity and not run around the country shouting “lock him up!” — it may not be a huge deal, but you can hardly treat it as per se illegitimate for the FBI to investigate violations of the law. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Like is it knowable a priori that Donald Trump absolutely did not improperly remove any classified documents from the White House and bring them to Mar a Lago and therefore any putative probable cause to that effect *must* be a conspiracy? — PolitiTweet.org

Is there not a single conservative who wants to slightly withhold judgment just in case maybe the FBI asked for a warrant and was granted one because they had a solid case? — PolitiTweet.org

It's true that they got Al Capone on tax evasion, but specifically what they got him on was vast unreported income from his organized crime career. It's not like they nailed him on some charge that unrelated to people's main concern about him! — PolitiTweet.org

Most annoying outcome for everyone will be if they totally have the goods on Trump but it's genuinely just some boring document mishandling charge with no greater significance. — PolitiTweet.org

It is 100 percent true that the FBI can raid your house for evidence if they get a warrant from a federal magistrate. — PolitiTweet.org

If they can do it to a former President, imagine what they can do to you.
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
At any rate, this underscores why in my opinion Trump is underrated as a 2024 primary candidate. It's easy to find Republicans who privately feel he's a weak choice and DeSantis would be better, but it's very hard to find anyone (including RDS) willing to criticize Trump. — PolitiTweet.org
