Misstating the act in question (that Trump said “the election results were suspect”) so as to call it “unpopular” “protected” speech is weird because it ignores (a) everything we know Trump actually said, & (b) that criminal/fraudulent speech (like incitement) isn’t protected. — PolitiTweet.org

Saying that the removal penalty is a “condition precedent” to the disqualification penalty is weird because (a) it’s a contract law term, (b) that “condition” isn’t in the Constitution & (c) it ignores Senate precedent on point (Belknap), usually something lawyers try to address. — PolitiTweet.org

Just reading the Trump pleading on impeachment,& it’s a headspinner. Calling the impeachment a Bill of Attainder is weird because that’s guilt of crime without trial & impeachment is (a) not criminal & (b) has a trial (coming right up). — PolitiTweet.org

.@NASA’s new climate advisor is exactly what we need to coordinate our country’s vast scientific resources and lay the groundwork for meaningful action. I am excited to see @ClimateOfGavin chosen for this important new role. — PolitiTweet.org

Predictable, and well deserved, as this rule was a total polluter scam from the get-go. https://t.co/zZWysDIGFE — PolitiTweet.org

While Trump was a flamboyant offense to democracy, there is also the creeping threat of dark money into our political system and it is just as dangerous. — PolitiTweet.org

It is essential to understand the attack on the Capitol as an organized effort, not a spontaneous one. The FBI should follow the money. Look at the groups involved in planning this, then look at their funders. https://t.co/bLx7wow30W — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans urging more narrowly targeted COVID relief should remember $250 billion tax bonanza for hedge fund managers and real estate speculators they tucked into CARES Act. Targeted, indeed. — PolitiTweet.org

This is why law enforcement officers take such serious precautions when executing warrants. My prayers for the families of the agents killed in the line of duty, and my best wishes for speedy recovery to those wounded. https://t.co/XRLmhdmn8h — PolitiTweet.org

Bingo. All we’re asking is to align their political effort with their own stated policies. How hard is that? Time to show up. https://t.co/BrtqmuDNwD — PolitiTweet.org

Why does FOX only ever show one side of this story? Never the fishermen who’ve lost their catch; never the homeowners who’ve lost their homes; never the climate harms. https://t.co/RddGBw7EZB — PolitiTweet.org

In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth, we remember and celebrate the countless leaders, activists and changemakers past and present whose accomplishments have long been overlooked and underappreciated. Thank you. — PolitiTweet.org

I watched the right wing smash everything in its way in its quest to politicize the courts; and now, having succeeded, they bemoan a bipartisan commission as “politicizing” the courts. Really, guys? — PolitiTweet.org

Right off the deep end. Does Tucker really think DOJ put this case together in last eight days, that it wasn’t prepared under Trump administration? They’re just convulsed with lying now. https://t.co/UIqbftNxug — PolitiTweet.org

This is why I singled out Biden “social cost of carbon” order in my ‘grand finale’ Time To Wake Up speech — it’s a techie thing but it’s a BFD. https://t.co/hQcOGSQFnd — PolitiTweet.org

For the price of a fight - for the narrative, for the teachable moment, for investigations, for regulations - America could have been spared years of dark-money evil. It's a painful lesson. Here’s part 2 of my series on Mistakes We Should Not Repeat: https://t.co/XLtNvXqA8K — PolitiTweet.org
