Maybe in a nuclear age a president shouldn't be this blunt. But it is also important for the world to know that Biden feels the moral component of Russia's brutal invasion. — PolitiTweet.org

@sbg1 In keeping with Michael Kinsley's definition, a gaffe is saying what you really think when you're not supposed to.

My great-uncle who was a nautical man (he loved hustling cards on ocean liners) would be out there today posing as a yacht broker who supposedly can get oligarchs' boats out of the clutches of NATO counties. — PolitiTweet.org

Today in @newrepublic I resurrect my con-man great-uncle who hustled Hitler and the Nazis in 1936 by selling them rusted auto bodies and tin cans masquerading as scarce Canadian nickel. I hope scam artists are doing the same to Russian oligarchs today. https://t.co/1WMxbW4gfZ — PolitiTweet.org

I am uplifted by the surprising national unity about support for Ukraine. But @JillDLawrence makes a key point: "Standing with Ukraine and against Putin is far from the most the Republican Party can do to correct course. It’s the least." https://t.co/jxdvDpSN95 — PolitiTweet.org

@Profepps @MichaelMcGough3 @steve_vladeck When Arthur Goldberg ran for the NY Senate in 1970, he spent his entire speech outlining his prior big jobs: Secretary of Labor, Supreme Court justice and UN ambassador. In the midst of this boring Goldberg list, someone shouted, "What's the matter, Arthur, you can't hold a job?" — PolitiTweet.org

Great lede from @JillDLawrence on DeSantis and Florida: "Once upon a time there was a pretend country where pretty much everyone was Christian, heterosexual and healthy. Nobody needed to worry about catching a disease like COVID-19." https://t.co/f8rUbl5ckH — PolitiTweet.org

Personal news: My book "Hustling Hitler" on my con-man great-uncle swindling the Nazis in a 1936 nickel deal gets a favorable mention today in (where else?) "Recycling Today." The hook is the current shortage of nickel because of the war in Ukraine. https://t.co/S1aDUSPsGt — PolitiTweet.org

@Profepps @nytimes I belatedly read the @nytimes edit. I support what they were trying to do (I think). But the writing was, at times, sufficiently murky and yes-but-on-the-hand that it was hard to follow the thread of an argument. Also, the surfeit of poll data didn't add much to the edit. — PolitiTweet.org

On a day when the beleaguered president of Ukraine addressed Congress, this is the pressing question that must be answered: "So, who might be Donald Trump's running mate?" https://t.co/VDywFUY6LD — PolitiTweet.org

@SenatorZero I will believe it on primary day — and not before. You think Hochel will not remind voters of the entirety of Cuomo’s record? Just the Covid coverup alone is pretty damning. — PolitiTweet.org
