There has been a lot of valorization of the American project in Syria over the past week. But I think that really misunderstands how Trump came to be in a position to provoke such chaos. This was a disaster with many fathers, including the people being cast as the Kurds' saviors. — PolitiTweet.org

The United States has spent the last seven years turning northern Syria into a tinderbox. Yes, Trump lit the match, but he didn't set the kindling. https://t.co/KXImNAmSlb — PolitiTweet.org

Yes. The idea that Facebook could shape political speech in a democracy to keep the government friendly isn’t a hypothetical. It’s already happening. — PolitiTweet.org

If there is such a thing as a Trump foreign policy doctrine, it’s Lindsey Graham getting caught on tape by Russian pranksters saying that Trump wants to help an authoritarian leader not despite but because he is a strongman — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias There’s a segment of Twitter where fighting over Snowden’s motivations and judgment is like the 2016 Dem primary. Endlessly, bitterly relitigated between two Manichean camps who see the issue as all-defining. Game Theory Guy was on the other side of that fight. — PolitiTweet.org
Max Fisher @Max_Fisher
@mattyglesias It’s a preemptive counter to this being used to support long-standing arguments that Snowden could’ve gone through proper channels. They’re invested in the idea that within-system whistleblowing is impossible, therefore any within-system whistleblower must be fake and Bad. — PolitiTweet.org

Programming note: Seeing reporters cite @brett_mcgurk, who criticized Trump’s Syria pull-out, as a “Trump official.” In fact, he is a career diplomat who served 3 admins. Trump has sought to erase this distinction in service of “deep state” conspiracies. Let’s not play into it. — PolitiTweet.org

Extremely British political norms: PM telling the Queen to literally close Parliament is fine, it’s no big deal. But having the Queen “raise an eyebrow … a quarter of an inch” at Scots forcibly throwing off your rule is shocking, a scandal, just not done. https://t.co/K7CuKUrvqc — PolitiTweet.org
