I don’t want to take anything away from the journalists at the Trib today, who do fine work with shrinking resources. — PolitiTweet.org

I was lucky enough to spend the first decade of my career in the newsroom of the @chicagotribune, mentored by wonderful journalists when the Trib was a truly great newspaper. I owe so much to them and that experience. Sad to see if fall into the hands of these scavengers. RIP. — PolitiTweet.org

A brand new episode of @HacksonTap, in which I provide therapy & safe harbor for my friends, ⁦@murphymike⁩ and ⁦@BillKristol⁩, as we contemplate the continued hegemony of Trump on their party.

In ‘16, Stone was Trump’s conduit to Wikileaks. Leading up to 1/6, was he Trump’s conduit to the Oath Keepers and other far right militia groups? https://t.co/tNuw0SbuRm — PolitiTweet.org

At 13, former fed prosecutor and impeachment counsel @danielsgoldman lost his dad to cancer. His only brother was killed in a plane crash in 2017. On the #AxeFiles, he spoke movingly about how these tragedies helped shape his life and career choices. Pod👉https://t.co/lQkLjpxkks — PolitiTweet.org

A really troubling and important post-trial piece from @RonBrownstein about the Trump-MTG @GOP. https://t.co/YUvP1Celx2 — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

One guy who probably wasn’t surprised by yesterday’s impeachment verdict was @danielsgoldman, who served as counsel on the last Trump impeachment trial. On the @AxeFiles, he described the experience of trying a case in a political forum. Pod👉 https://t.co/lQkLjpxkks https://t.co/Ay8ylQmt0L — PolitiTweet.org

So it’s McConnell’s words and not Trump’s that “put a load on Republican backs,” @LindseyGrahamSC? https://t.co/IJpqooQDAc — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

No one, not even his lawyers, defended Trump’s actions. 57 senators-including seven of his own party- voted to convict, an unprecedented, historic rebuke. He was not officially disqualified from holding future office but he never will again. Americans will never forget 1/6! — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

It was preordained, in an evenly divided Senate, that Trump would escape conviction. But, in part because of the compelling case made against him this week, he can’t escape the verdict of history. https://t.co/imRxgiT3as — PolitiTweet.org

.@RepRaskin, @RepJoeNeguse, @StaceyPlaskett, @davidcicilline, @RepDean, @RepDianaDeGette and @RepSwalwell were really impressive for the eloquence, dignity and thought they brought to this solemn task. Rep. Raskin, particularly, for setting aside his personal loss to take it on. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

The House managers did a magnificent job. I’m just baffled by one small thing that would not, in the end, have changed the outcome. Rep. @HerreraBeutler told her story about the row between Trump & @GOPLeader to her local newspaper A MONTH AGO. Did they not know about it? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

So guilty as charged but... — PolitiTweet.org

.@LeaderMcConnell is making a very strong after-the-fact case against Trump that mirrors the House manager’s case. — PolitiTweet.org

No excuses for the mob at the Capitol, Trump’s lawyer says. Trump on 1/6: “These are the things and events that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long.” — PolitiTweet.org
