Read @Timodc's "Why We Did It," out today. Watch Cassidy Hutchinson, testifying today. Defeat Trump and Trumpism, beginning today. Why We Did It: A Travelogue from the Republican Road to Hell by Tim Miller https://t.co/YUqF8P7vFo — PolitiTweet.org

Biden should repeat tonight what he said three months ago about Putin: "For God's sake, this man cannot remain in power." — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

"The U.S. government needs to put more effort, not into thinking about what we might do that might provoke him to escalate, but rather put in [Putin's] head concerns about what he’s doing that might cause us to escalate. That’s the nature of deterrence..." https://t.co/za3FZjtasF — PolitiTweet.org

"This supposes that the legal reasoning behind this or that decision needs to be defensible. It does not. The only thing any legal doctrine needs is five votes on the Supreme Court." https://t.co/3t0ltyMqF0 — PolitiTweet.org

"The Republican party is evolving into a post-liberal institution...Voters have watched this transformation and mostly NOT been repelled. [They] have decided this is the new normal for Republicans and judging the party by the old standards is impossible." https://t.co/fj2KkoyPdl — PolitiTweet.org

"Even more—as usual?—there is anti-anti-Putin sentiment...An allergic reaction to anything involving freedom or a freedom struggle. Anything touching on freedom, democracy, and human rights. I get this reaction all the time. A furious reaction." https://t.co/VEqdC1Zckf — PolitiTweet.org

"Yes, barbarism. That’s what the Ukrainians are up against, immediately. And that’s what the rest of us are up against, ultimately." https://t.co/VEqdC1Zckf — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

"The radicalism of the majority’s decision in Dobbs shouldn’t be glossed over; nor its lack of prudence...The court’s ruling plunges a fateful (and deeply personal) choice into the cauldron of the culture war at a moment of demagoguery [and] extremism." https://t.co/SzqfB2pdkV — PolitiTweet.org

But, as @saletan shows here--https://t.co/KaNAJkJWLR -- there's no solid limiting principle in Alito's majority opinion that would protect Obergefell, Lawrence, or Griswold. — PolitiTweet.org

If the Court had followed Roberts, there'd be little reason to think gay rights, contraception, etc., were next. If the Court had acknowledged the worth & importance of decades of constitutional law but still distinguished & overruled Roe, there might be little reason to worry. — PolitiTweet.org

Only one poll, to be sure: But in this NPR/News Hour/Marist poll in April, Republicans led the generic congressional ballot 47%-44%. Now, post-January 6 hearings and post-Dobbs, Democrats lead 48%-41%. https://t.co/TnRaQLd3vs — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

"The justices’ critique of Roe—the right to abortion isn’t specified in the Constitution and isn’t 'deeply rooted in this Nation’s history and tradition'—also applies to the putative constitutional rights to contraception, gay sex, and same-sex marriage." https://t.co/KaNAJkJWLR — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

"If the justices intend to purge past rulings that asserted rights not found in the Constitution, they can’t limit the purge based on a principle that’s also not found in the Constitution." https://t.co/KaNAJkJWLR — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

"The bizarre position of the Court is every principle invented or dubiously inferred in Roe and Casey should be discarded, except the one principle that—in a remarkable political convenience—shields the Court from taking down the whole right to privacy." https://t.co/H3WGyjkHqo — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

"Justice Alito insisted that this reasoning wouldn’t affect other rights not enumerated in the Constitution...This promise is worthless, because it’s based on a principle that’s also not in the Constitution: an asserted state interest in 'potential life.'" https://t.co/H3WGyjkHqo — PolitiTweet.org

Wonderful and moving performance at National Cathedral tonight, dedicated to the people of Ukraine, by @CityChoirDC under Robert Shafer. They premiered Shafer's Prayer for Ukraine, Elgar, and then Brahms' amazing German Requiem. Watch and listen here: https://t.co/BinFW4Nrng — PolitiTweet.org

All Americans, asked about what law they'd like in their state: 32%: abortion should be legal in all cases 32%: abortion should be legal in most cases 27%: abortion should be illegal in most cases 9%: abortion should be illegal in all cases. https://t.co/PrKWcwJuDt — PolitiTweet.org

"...additional military equipment from the U.S. and NATO states would allow them to outrange the Russian artillery...enabling the Ukrainian forces to regroup and counter attack and take back some of the territory."

On the de-coupling of Biden's approval and Dems' 2022 chances. Right now D's are at -2.3% vs. R's & Biden's approval/disapprove is at -16.5%. And the generic 2022 ballot hasn't changed in 4 months while Biden has slipped 4 points. Can the de-coupling last? https://t.co/JacGjGcKvq — PolitiTweet.org

Putin signaling contempt for the G-7 and NATO meetings in Europe this week, as well as enjoying killing innocent Ukrainian civilians. Might be a good time for US and/or NATO to announce it will escort out Ukrainian ships engaged in peaceful commerce to break the Russian blockade. — PolitiTweet.org

If you're in the D.C. area: There are still a few tickets left for tonight's concert at the National Cathedral, dedicated to the people of Ukraine. @CityChoirDC under Robert Shafer will perform Brahms' German Requiem (which he called his “human” requiem). https://t.co/WvZBCW2Ncl — PolitiTweet.org

"The dream of the anti-abortion movement has been [to] usher in a new era of respect for life...Unfortunately, this seems unlikely, because this decision will push abortion to the center of every political race and polarize U.S. politics even more." https://t.co/oZzHD3OScI — PolitiTweet.org
