A quote by @Olivianuzzi from a senior administration official: "There’s not a single person I have talked to at any level, from 23-year-old assistants to members of the Cabinet, who are not disgusted and ashamed with what has happened." About time! https://t.co/YhmRyHOP3R — PolitiTweet.org

@DKarol @Prof_Peacock Also, Murkowski (unlike Collins) was on the ballot in 2010 when the GOP went into its crazed Ted Party phase, which, admittedly, seems mild in hindsight. — PolitiTweet.org

Nobody should liken Trump being banned from Twitter with Soviet tactics. The Russians believed (and apparently still believe) in defenestration. Trust me, being de-platformed is far less fatal. — PolitiTweet.org

It is amazing how much courage everyone has developed during the last 12 days of the Trump Show. It would have been a bit more convincing if this outrage had been spread out over four years. — PolitiTweet.org

He can still fire people via a formal letter delivered by the Post Office. Too bad his appointee, Louis DeJoy, has deliberately screwed up mail service. So the firing letters will arrive in early February. — PolitiTweet.org

Susan Glasser @sbg1

Does this mean he can’t fire anyone?

Major problem with continuing an impeachment trial after Trump leaves office. A Senate trial stops everything in the chamber -- most relevantly, confirmation hearings and confirmations of Biden appointees. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenatorZero I was moving fast -- and I couldn't think of a way to both give context and accurately quote Brittanica is a single tweet. And I didn't want to make it in multiple tweets. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenatorZero I know the problem. But since Biden mentioned Dresden in his press conference, I thought I'd check to see what Brittanica said. They didn't give a source. — PolitiTweet.org

Brittanica on Dresden bombing casualties: "It is thought that some 25,000–35,000 civilians died in Dresden in the air attacks, though some estimates are as high as 250,000, given the influx of undocumented refugees that had fled to Dresden from the Eastern Front." — PolitiTweet.org
