One thing is very clear. Garland would not have authorized this raid, and no federal judge would have signed off on it, if there weren't significant evidence to warrant it. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This is why Trump is going to run. He wants to portray any criminal probe or prosecution as a plot to prevent him from once again becoming POTUS. Many of his followers will believe it--as they did his lies about the LAST election. — PolitiTweet.org

On #AxeFiles, @johnlegend speaks about the "reckoning" that took place after George Floyd's murder-& the backlash to it. "We had a lot of conversations around this nation's history of racism, then a lot of folks were upset that conversation happened."

"We have to seize this opportunity to deal with the radical left socialists and fascists," Trump says at CPAC. And I guess if you have to stage a coup and override a free and fair election to ovecome "facists," so be it?!? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

In late December, I wrote that despite all the crepe-hanging over the collapse of Build Back Better, @POTUS could wind up defying the naysayers by winning a smaller, yet still significant plan. With senate approval today, that victory is close at hand. https://t.co/bSvtSUZBoy — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you! — PolitiTweet.org

Beyond his music, @johnlegend has raised his voice for criminal justice reform. "We are already the most incarcerated country in the world. If that were the key to us being the safest country in the world, then we would already be that." #AxeFiles podcast: https://t.co/d65LXOoHhV https://t.co/nhQ3NvAVDG — PolitiTweet.org

Trump is proving he's still the Big Dog in @GOP primaries. But it's telling that Republicans are begging him NOT to announce before midterms. Because they know he's an albatross in general elections. What does that say about '24? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Ok, you have to check out this ⁦@foxheadlines⁩ caption on Friday, after a robust jobs report. #Onionesque. https://t.co/F2Q3WQUgu1 — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On #AxeFiles, @johnlegend talks about the power of white evangelicals. "That's a political movement as much as a religious movement...I don't believe they should be able to use their faith as a way of imposing their beliefs on the rest of the country." https://t.co/d65LXO75Tl https://t.co/EQsyIofjZJ — PolitiTweet.org

You can't pick your neighbors. Nearly half the guns on the streets of Chicago come from Indiana, where laws are lax. Now women in need of abortions will be forced to cross the Indiana-Illinois state line, too. https://t.co/4ywYrTX3UP — PolitiTweet.org

100 percent correct. You have to wonder if @RonJohnsonWI even WANTS to return to the Senate because, if so, his Social Security and Medicare proposal is truly crazy. — PolitiTweet.org

Would have been a hell of a lot cheaper if Jones acknowledged from@the start that his charges about Sandy Hook were fake and that HE's the actor--not a journalist. https://t.co/7WzrNb7bSE — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As a young musician, @johnlegend teamed up w/a rising @kanyewest. They remained close for years--but no more. "Because we publicly disagreed on his running for office, his supporting Trump, it became too much for us to sustain our friendship." #AxeFiles👉https://t.co/d65LXO75Tl https://t.co/vr0PFZ53HV — PolitiTweet.org

You have to wonder if @Sen_JoeManchin and @SenSchumer put the carried interest provision in their draft just so @SenatorSinema could shoot something down before signing on to the bill. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Politics is a fickle business. Two months ago, the buzz on @JoeBiden was universally bad. Now he's riding a string of major legislative wins, the elimination of the AQ leader & continued strong hiring picture. Will poll numbers follow? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On #AxeFiles, @johnlegend talks about his childhood & the emotional breakdown that led his mother to leave the family. "There's no substitute for a mom & it was tough for us...I think part of the way I coped with it, honestly, was through music." Pod👉https://t.co/d65LXOoHhV https://t.co/93I2vy7UbS — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

"To have the government decide whether or not the life of the mother was sufficiently in danger for them to make this intimate decision that they make between themselves and their doctor. To have the government involved in that conversation in any way is so offensive to me." — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

When @chrissyteigen and @johnlegend lost a child to miscarriage, they were shattered. On #AxeFiles, he talks about that horrific experience, new abortion laws & government intrusion in the most painful, intimate decisions: "It's nasty. It's evil."

.@brittneygriner is trapped in a whole different game--geopolitics--over which she has no control. And Putin has the ball. It must be unbelievably frightening. — PolitiTweet.org

Big thanks to @brikeilarcnn and @JohnAvlon for a great conversation on @NewDay marking the 500th episode of the #AxeFiles!! https://t.co/Jbj8dn25CX — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

His award-winning music is familiar and sublime. But his extraordinary personal story, depth of thought and commitment to social justice--well, that's worthy of episode #500! My #AxeFiles conversation with the great @johnlegend: https://t.co/d65LXOoHhV https://t.co/SLnfZRsgUZ — PolitiTweet.org

@matthewbjaffe Wouldn't be an Axe Files without you, brother! Thanks for the idea--and for explaining to me what a podcast IS! — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

1) @LeaderMcConnell abuses rules to deny Garland nomination a hearing or vote for much of 2016. (And then speeds Barrett thru in '20.) 2) As a result, Trump gets to shape a SCOTUS that scuttles abortion rights. 3) Now backlash may deny @GOP senate majority. #karma — PolitiTweet.org
