5. DeSantis' announcement had lots of political theatrics. Republican activists sat in the jury box waving signs saying, "My Vote Counts." But there were few specifics offered on the individual cases. A review of the court records for the 20 people charged reveals why. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
4. DeSantis' announcement of these arrests, a campaign-style event held in a Florida courthouse, successfully generated that would appeal to Republican voters looking for validation of Trump's false claims about election fraud. https://t.co/O0ttiUVKKR — PolitiTweet.org

3. SECOND, DeSantis uses these simple announcements to generate headlines that benefit him politically. In this case, DeSantis is trying to appeal to Republican voters who believe that Biden stole the 2020 election from Trump. https://t.co/GGiineZ53G — PolitiTweet.org

@RonDeSantisFL 2. FIRST, DeSantis makes a splashy announcement with a simple, misleading narrative. Last week, for example, he announced that 20 people were arrested for voter fraud. "Governor DeSantis Announces the Arrest of 20 Elections Criminals" https://t.co/GGiineZ53G https://t.co/pnT1kLQOOQ — PolitiTweet.org

The best way to undermine any government program is strict means testing. It stigmatizes the recipients and erodes public support. Social Security and Medicare are extraordinarily popular government programs. Because everyone benefits. — PolitiTweet.org

Where does Mitch McConnell get millions to deploy around the country in an effort seize control of the Senate and pursue a national abortion ban? Anschutz Corp, which owns @coachella and other popular music festivals, donated 500K earlier this year https://t.co/7Yic20SCup — PolitiTweet.org

The POLITICAL MESSAGING EXPERTS ON TWITTER™️, with few exceptions, have never practiced political messaging on any level. When/where did they become experts in political messaging? It is never explained. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
It’s pretty basic: Accepting hundred of thousands of debt relief from the feds (that you might not have needed) while opposing it for others (who earn under 125K) reeks of hypocrisy. You can try to explain it away. But, in politics, when you are explaining, you are losing. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
The idea that PPP and student debt relief aren’t exactly the same thing seems to be very important to SMART PEOPLE ON TWITTER™️ but it’s not really a smart point. It’s obvious. — PolitiTweet.org

If it’s effectively branding critics of student loan program as hypocrites, then it is part of an effective strategy to sell the program. — PolitiTweet.org

Further, @RepublicanAGs sent out robocalls to build the mob prior to January 6, 2021. They were a key part of the “Stop the Steal” infrastructure So Twitter knew (or should have known) exactly what they were doing — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
The excuse that the money was donated before the Supreme Court overturned Roe — and @RepublicanAGs started fundraising off rolling back abortion rights for millions of women — is misleading. Twitter donated to RAGA on 6/17, weeks after the decision was leaked — PolitiTweet.org

I’m glad employees are raising corporate political spending with management. Their voices carry a lot of weight. @Twitter’s response, while standard, is disturbing. Is the only way for Twitter to “engage” with @RepublicanAGs to send them tens of thousands of dollars? — PolitiTweet.org

I’m not saying that Democrats don’t lie. Democrats lie all the time! But the loadstar should be the truth not the appearance of neutrality. — PolitiTweet.org

If one side is lying and the other side is telling the truth, being “neutral” involves misleading the public. — PolitiTweet.org

It underscores the absurdity of characterizing CNN’s new direction as “neutral.” The new direction is extraordinarily political — it’s just a different kind of politics. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
Do people realize that the guy pushing for CNN to be more “neutral” is a huge fan of Fox News and thinks bringing more “journalism” to CNN means making CNN more like Fox? https://t.co/DjPAfkZUHq — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, Trump keeps offering different, contradictory explanations for the classified documents seized at Mar-a-Lago. THAT IS THE POINT. This is Trump's strategy for every crisis. Flood the zone with so much garbage that the basic facts become obscured. He thrives in chaos. — PolitiTweet.org
