"I think we'll look back on this time and probably see that there was a lot of extraordinary writing and reporting. In retrospect, what may be disheartening to us is maybe how little that mattered." @ayadakhtar in The Ink. https://t.co/46IERdEAik — PolitiTweet.org

TL;DR: By all means, come into our big tent. Doesn't matter if you're super-late. Just don't appoint yourself a pole. — PolitiTweet.org

By all means, remain part of a new coalition for justice and equity and a pluralistic future. Love to have you. But don't presume to lead the cause. Don't rightsplain to it. Take a back-row seat and be thankful to belong to a team working to undo decades of damage. — PolitiTweet.org

Until now, what too few in the mainstream wanted to discuss was that you were complicit in every step that led to this presidency, if not in the presidency itself. Now that Trump's gone, it's time to grapple with your role in Iraq, Katrina, rising inequity. — PolitiTweet.org

Do not use the goodwill you have built up to call for healing over accountability. Do not spend your anti-fascist clout on shooting down ideas like a wealth tax or Medicare for All. Do not try to be the moderate whisperers of the party. — PolitiTweet.org

You were welcomed into the tent, because there was a common enemy to democracy. But please do not use your position in the tent to smuggle in the austerity agenda that you didn't renounce even as you scorned Trump. Your most important work now is to fix your own side. — PolitiTweet.org

A lot of Never Trump Republicans who found new purpose in resisting Trump are going to need to reflect on their role starting tomorrow. The easy default will be to become a dispenser of unsolicited advice, nudging the Democratic Party to the right. This advice should be ignored. — PolitiTweet.org

@mashagessen And a reminder that it doesn't have to be newsletters versus big media. We can work together. So grateful to @mashagessen for digging so deep and sharing so deeply. This is incredible writing. https://t.co/puoiHHfRcx https://t.co/XYV5WTgpg1 — PolitiTweet.org

"He has told me that not an hour of his life passes when he doesn’t think about opioids." @mashagessen has written a breathtaking account of the Sackler family's text messages -- interspersed with their own when their son overdosed. https://t.co/puoiHGYgkZ — PolitiTweet.org

The cultists want you to think that inclusion, tolerance, growing awareness, a new candor about our history, and "wokeness" distort America. But these vital developments in our time are markers of progress, of America becoming what it was promised to be. https://t.co/tf8puFdblH — PolitiTweet.org

@ayadakhtar .@ayadakhtar believes the Fed is quietly fueling a "permanent upward redistribution of wealth." "We're baking in a dispossession of the folks who don't own assets. We're baking in a redistribution of their wealth in the opposite direction." https://t.co/46IERdEAik https://t.co/V5kinq1ATH — PolitiTweet.org

@ayadakhtar I asked @ayadakhtar about the cultural significance of medical GoFundMes. "The system," he said, "has convinced us that we have to take care of each other because the system's not going to take care of us."

@ayadakhtar As part of his project of making literature out of arcane but important areas of public life, @ayadakhtar investigates debt in his new novel. Debt, he says, is a prism for understanding our upstairs-downstairs economy. https://t.co/46IERdEAik https://t.co/ClUujtZ6mR — PolitiTweet.org

@ayadakhtar I asked @ayadakhtar about the debate he airs in the novel about whether America is fundamentally corrupted at the root by racism and greed, or whether there is some noble striving that is real and can be salvaged from the ruins of the way we’ve lived. https://t.co/46IERdEAik https://t.co/7t4WuXBWu4 — PolitiTweet.org
