As the crisis over Ukraine grows, three of the world's great Russia experts-former U.S. Ambassadors Michael McFaul (Russia) and Ivo Daalder (NATO) and Susan Glasser of The New Yorker-will gather virtually Monday @UChiPolitics to assess. Moderated by Bianna Golodryga of @CNN.👇 — PolitiTweet.org

On #AxeFiles, @SenatorTester is blunt about election/1/6 deniers in politics. "There's a lot of folks...I just wonder, if they're not tools of the Chinese government because they're advocating for things that go directly against our constitution" Pod👉https://t.co/BrzNViq9wJ https://t.co/oqkNQABNGP — PolitiTweet.org

On a new #AxeFiles, @SenatorTester warns fellow Dems that the party's brand is "toxic" in rural America and the failure of national Dems to "show up" in small-town America has made matters worse for the party. Pod up NOW👉https://t.co/BrzNViq9wJ https://t.co/A5h8nic00s — PolitiTweet.org

15 yrs ago today, I stood in the shadow of the Old State House where Lincoln once prepped for the presidency. It was so cold, I couldn't feel my toes. Yet a huge crowd came from far & wide to launch an historic campaign. Proud to have been there. And with @BarackObama! #Obama08 https://t.co/zdX27JWW5m — PolitiTweet.org

15 years ago, 17K people gathered in near zero temps at the Old State House in Springfield IL to hear a longshot candidate named @BarackObama announce his candidacy for POTUS. Thursday, key members of his team who were there will reflect on that day & its meaning @UChiPolitics!👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Blunt political wisdom from @MittRomney for @GOP on RNC censure of @Liz_Cheney & @AdamKinzinger: "Anything that my party does that comes across as being stupid is not going to help us." https://t.co/vBu20kkmCk — PolitiTweet.org

"The future in the medium term, the next 5 to 10 years, (is) constitutional crisis, more social instability, red states & blue states, farther apart. But I also think that over the next 15, 20 years, demographics are going to make it too hard to be a minoritarian country." — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As a global risk analyst, @Ianbremmer assesses the stability of countries around the globe. It was fascinating to hear him on #AxeFiles turn his lens on the U.S. his forecast--stormy for the next 10 to 15 years followed by clearing skies.

Communications from CDC haa consistently been confusing. A beat behind. It damages credibility and trust in a vitally important public health agency. https://t.co/OcqlTGA2Mf — PolitiTweet.org

"Justices Kavanaugh and Alito, part of the conservative majority, said the lower court’s order for a new map came too close to the 2022 election cycle." A blatantly bogus explanation for allowing AL to violate Voting Rights Act. Primary is in late May! https://t.co/WYysSki0gv — PolitiTweet.org

As you will hear in the clip below, when he calls the U.S. "the most economicallly unequal by far," he is comparing America to the other G-7 advanced industrial economies. — PolitiTweet.org

"We today in the U.S. are not only the most powerful country in the world, but we are also the most economically unequal by far...Over the last 40 years, we have increasingly been reaping what we sow."

This is the Republican dilemma. They say want to talk about the future and not the '20 election. But Trump will never allow it. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump to crowd on 1/6, before launching them on Capitol: "We fight like hell and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.” @MikePence, yesterday: "If we lose faith in the Constitution, we won’t just lose elections — we’ll lose our country." — PolitiTweet.org

As it it hosts the winter #Olympics , China is a rising colossus. But on #AxeFiles, global risk guru @ianbremmer says there's trouble ahead: "China's domestic challenges are an order of magnitude greater over the next 10 years than America's."

Separating FROM Trump, not the base, I meant to say. Tricky, maybe impossible, maneuver! — PolitiTweet.org

The @POTUS has gone thru some bad weeks. This week: the job numbers are higher than anyone anticipated. The virus is slowly receding. The U.S. eliminated a major terrorist leader from the battlefield, and the NATO coalition is holding against Russia re Ukraine. A better week. — PolitiTweet.org
