But there’s a serious “but” here. The “but” is that almost no effort at all has been put into investigating *any* of the leads already extant that’d lead to the development of additional evidence on Seditious Conspiracy as to Trump. So it’s not a case they *want* to try to make. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
But it would be a tight case for sure, and so far DOJ and the FBI have shown no stomach to bring even *100% slam-dunk cases* against Trump. So there is no indication at present that they would bring forward a case that would be a long slog and a tough haul to get to a conviction. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
I think when we consider Willful Blindness doctrine, the Reasonable Person standard, and the facts of the case taken in their totality federal prosecutors could probably prove that Trump knew or should have known that he was abed with men who planned to use or encourage violence. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
What you have instead from the Stop the Steal leaders are (i) strong *implications* of possible violence, (ii) vague statements about law enforcement being unable to physically stop a mob that wants to get past it, and (iii) rhetoric that unambiguously analogized 1/6 to a *war*. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
If historical precedent situates force as violence the problem prosecutors would face is that while the USSS told Trump days before 1/6 that the situation would be unsafe—I suspect they said (and knew) that meant violence—the Stop the Steal leaders avoided *advocating* violence. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
One sticking point would be the legal definition of force. Obviously breaking and entering a federal building *can* involve illegal force applied to a point of entrance and entering en masse a building known to be defended by armed law enforcement *ordinarily* does require force. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The House January 6 Committee essentially skipped over the most damning evidence, which was Trump (and USSS elements) arranging with the Stop the Steal radicals to link the Ellipse speech and an event at the Capitol. Alexander was fairly clear beforehand on force being required. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
I agree the bar is high. The focus would be on Trump asking Jones, Alexander and Stone to lead the march after i) the USSS told him days before 1/6 it’d likely get violent and ii) all three were using violent rhetoric and Alexander was outlining plans implicitly requiring force. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats have historically been *much better* for the economy than Republicans. Fifty years of economic data confirms it. What Republicans are far better at is *falsely demonizing their opponents* over the economy. Any voter who has been paying attention since 1980 knows this. — PolitiTweet.org

8/ So I hope you’ll consider supporting my work at RETRO; I hope it acts as a “positive” counterbalance to PROOF. It’s also tied for the least-expensive media outlet on Substack—especially with the current subscription deal—so thanks for considering it! 😁 https://t.co/LAl0j06vL7 — PolitiTweet.org

7/ I sometimes get accused of being doom-and-gloom—of running a feed that encourages “doom-scrolling.” What I usually say in response is that we’re in the Darkest Timeline and I can’t/won’t lie about it. It’s also why I run RETRO: to celebrate all the awesome stuff in the world. — PolitiTweet.org

6/ I expect two more entries in the “Lost Classics of the 1960s” series between now and Halloween, one on hard rock (the first time I’ve written on this subject) and one on the sorta-creepy subgenre known as “bubblegum.” In the meantime, there’s this (🔓): https://t.co/WmaXEhsF1D — PolitiTweet.org

5/ In the second half of October RETRO is celebrating the one-year anniversary of its founding by publishing 7 articles in 14 days, a fecund stretch for a site that already has a ton of content. Here’s a recent article from the site’s birthday celebration: https://t.co/Y3ItWlnj3w — PolitiTweet.org

4/ I’ve had a strange life, and RETRO gives me a chance to write about it while also providing content I think folks will find very entertaining. The videos in this edition of “The Best Videos on the Internet” offer a chance to focus on amazing—but *positive*—things in the world. — PolitiTweet.org
