Lotta people love reaching for American history — and there are lots of useful parallels! But understanding what's happening in America today also *requires* a comparative lens. It's just empty without it. — PolitiTweet.org

The more I think about what happened yesterday, the more the best descriptor of the events is "electoral violence" — defined as when "iolence is levied by political actors to purposefully influence the process and outcome of elections" https://t.co/JKaoYxUeSW — PolitiTweet.org

I can't get the spectacle of members of Congress calling for the 25th Amendment. You have the power to impeach and remove the president. You can bar him from future office. You can do this, you! You don't need to beg Trump's chosen toadies to save us. Take action. — PolitiTweet.org

Unless he demands an emergency session of the House and introduces articles of impeachment, this is empty grandstanding — PolitiTweet.org

I don't know Congressional procedure well enough to know how easily this can be reversed by emergency session, but right now this seems like an absolute and utter dereliction of duty — PolitiTweet.org
Jennifer Bendery @jbendery
The House isn't coming back into session until after the inauguration. The Senate has adjourned until Jan. 19. Surreal cap to yesterday.

@TPCarney @zachdcarter @AlecMacGillis Because there's a causal line of responsibility from the party leadership and its strategy for years now to Trump. It's accurately assessing blame and trying to figure out what would have to change to prevent it in the future. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve been catching up on Watchmen while giving the baby a pre-bedtime bottle, but tonight I think a show about racist militiamen committing violence against agents of the state is a little too real — PolitiTweet.org

At what point does this become too much even for Republicans? They don't have a lot to gain from Trump doing this for another two weeks. The 25th Amendment looms. — PolitiTweet.org

The Republican party has, under Trump and even before him, made a tactical choice to stoke anti-democratic extremism and treat their opponents as fundamentally illegitimate. It turns out their base was listening. — PolitiTweet.org

An attack on the Capitol wasn't predictable — but the GOP's attack on democracy having terrible consequences was. I wrote this in 2018, after the last time Republicans attempt to delegitimize Democratic electoral victories. https://t.co/bIC2NnZKJg https://t.co/k7RhAZds9a — PolitiTweet.org
