"Mike Lee may want to pretend he had no role in this process, but the stone-cold truth is that he, and many other conservatives, breathed life into Trump’s schemes and made the Jan. 6th attack on the Capitol possible." https://t.co/Hj4vJoOEVn — PolitiTweet.org

"How was it that as late as January 4 Lee was still 'trying to figure out a path that I can persuasively defend'?...And still, Lee was working his butt off trying to find any flimsy veneer of constitutionality for Trump’s bogus claims." https://t.co/Hj4vJoOEVn — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

"Because what if GOP-controlled state legislatures...had decided to appoint Trump electors based on whatever...? 'Everything changes.' If state-level Republicans had been okay with overturning the election results, then Lee was okay with it, too." https://t.co/Hj4vJoOEVn — PolitiTweet.org

"This definition of genocide is...U.S. law at 18 U.S.C. §1091. So nobody should be surprised that the president of the U.S. would acknowledge that the definition of genocide in our country’s legal code sure seems to apply to the circumstances in Ukraine." https://t.co/jsHjDrgrBO — PolitiTweet.org

4. Help Ukraine defeat Russia ASAP (and bolster security against China) to reassure re global stability. In other words: Make the 2020s like the 1980s. Bidenism as an updated--and liberal!--version of Reaganism, ftw. — PolitiTweet.org

NOTE TO THE PRESIDENT Want to reverse inflationary pressures? 1. Increase immigration. 2. Reduce tariffs (start w/ Trump's) and trade barriers. 3. Make domestic oil and gas exploration far easier (cut permitting time) to put real and fast downward pressure on energy prices. — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

It's been a rough stretch for liberal democracy. Iran's Green Movement and Arab Spring fail, Putin and Xi consolidate power, Trump and Trumpism... Can 2022 see a reversal? Zelensky and the Ukrainians! Europe awakes. Can Biden be Truman? Will liberalism again be a fighting faith? — PolitiTweet.org

I don't know nearly enough to judge if this is merely very unlikely or wildly unlikely, but it does seem to me the odds that China could be approaching a regime crisis aren't zero. — PolitiTweet.org

"A recent appearance on the RNC’s podcast captured both the draws and drawbacks of the party’s unyielding attachment to Mr. Trump. It was, by far, the podcast’s most-watched episode on YouTube — until the site removed it for spreading misinformation." https://t.co/2oScGxiSqW — PolitiTweet.org

"Matt Dolan, the only leading Republican not aggressively vying for a Trump endorsement, suggested his rivals were putting Ohio voters second. 'There are people on this stage who are literally fighting for one vote, and that person doesn’t vote in Ohio.'” https://t.co/2oScGxiSqW — PolitiTweet.org

also is Rubio pro-Florida jobs or pro-anti-Florida protestors? cc @RepValDemings — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

Maybe FL Dems are already doing some of this. But shouldn't they be out there defending the access of families to Disney (presumably a major source of jobs, tourist revenue, etc.), and asking why DeSantis isn't calling off these anti-Florida protestors who are his supporters? — PolitiTweet.org

The agenda: "That each of you may have through this free government an open field and a fair chance for your industry, enterprise and intelligence; that you may all have equal privileges in the race of life, with all its desirable human aspirations." -- Lincoln, Aug. 22, 1864 — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats need a serious centrist faction. "The Democrats have scattered politicians who somewhat fit this mold. But they don’t have an agenda for them to coalesce around, a group of donors ready to fund them, a set of intellectuals ready to embrace them." https://t.co/JHFSuFAPIA — PolitiTweet.org
