Accountability is different than retribution. What’s impeachable is not necessarily what’s illegal. The Constitution sets a different standard. — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
More than 200 Trump supporters have been charged related to the riot. On the Senate floor, Trump’s lawyer praises the FBI for tracking down members of the mob. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s lawyer Bruce Castor refers to him as “the former president,” a term the ex-president’s team has avoided using in their press releases. — PolitiTweet.org

Serious question: I wonder how many senators actually read the trial briefs from either side? — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
A year ago, during the first trial, who could have imagined that House impeachment managers would be quoting Jonathan Turley’s legal analysis a year later in a second trial against Trump? — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
Joe Neguse notes that Steven Calabresi was the first president of the Yale Law School chapter of the Federalist Society, a post he notes that Josh Hawley later held. Calabresi, like most serious conservative lawyers, believes a former president can still be tried by the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann
This compelling presentation by Congressman Neguse, complete with visual aids, is a sad reminder of how many corrupt and terrible politicians America has suffered through in the past. But we are a nation of laws and not of men, which is why the republic has endured. 🇺🇸 — PolitiTweet.org

Great line by @RepRaskin : Trump may not have known a lot about the framers, but they knew a lot about him."

What Jamie Raskin didn’t mention but seems notable is that Josh Hawley clerked for Judge McConnell, who is now a constitutional law professor at Stanford. — PolitiTweet.org

On the Senate floor, Rep. Jamie Raskin just cited this @washingtonpost op-ed by former Judge Michael W. McConnell: “The constitution allows a president to be tried in the Senate if he was in office when impeached by the House.” https://t.co/eqfuslxoCW — PolitiTweet.org

@StLuGal Seems like that’s what Raskin is doing with this speech. — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
Taking Trump out of it, as a purely institutional matter, any senator who votes that this trial isn’t constitutional is voting against future legislative power and to expand presidential power. — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
Most Senate Republicans want to let Trump off on a supposed technicality — a January exemption — because they don’t want to go on record to either condone or condemn his conduct that led to the horrific and violent scenes in that video we all just saw. #TrumpOnTrial — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
Jamie Raskin’s promise at the top that he is not going to cite the Federalist Papers at length highlights a good point. Because of the first Trump impeachment, Democrats can skip a lot of the explanations for what the founders thought was an impeachable offense. Americans know. — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
It’s striking that Trump told the mob on Jan. 6 that he was going to go with them to the Capitol. Seems relevant, even though he didn’t go. Some in the crowd ostensibly didn’t know that. — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
Lead impeachment manager Jamie Raskin: “A ‘January exception’ is an invitation to our founders’ worst nightmare.” He notes that it would be an “invitation to impunity” and create a precedent for future presidents to wreak havoc as lame ducks. #TrumpOnTrial — PolitiTweet.org

“You will not be hearing extended lectures from me,” says Jamie Raskin. “It’s all about the facts.” #trumpontrial — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Ron Wright is the first sitting member of Congress to die from covid-19. In 2012, Obama lost the district by 17; last year, Biden lost it by just 3 points. Wright ran ahead of Trump, defeating a Democratic challenger by 9 points. https://t.co/gcwtzKjdhE — PolitiTweet.org
