@joe_shipman @DrGeneCallahan @amalmerzouk The "exception" part is NOT a contradicting counterexample but something characterized by its rarity. — PolitiTweet.org

@encrier @johnzabb The Greek "race and identity" thingy is a 19 c thing, a Western invention. The Rhomi identity prevailed until then. Many Rhomi spoke Turkish. — PolitiTweet.org

If Brookings, the elite think tank, is proving to be just a shill house, consider all other political science houses as propaganda-for-hire outfits. Some of their employees have the nerve to call themselves "scholars". — PolitiTweet.org

3) Correcting typo: "Admitting you make a mistake gets you off the hook; admitting you lied doesn't." (Also note that Trump never admitted anything; if you are going to be an ass**le, it pays to go all the way.) — PolitiTweet.org
