Knowing Merrick Garland for decades, I’m particularly encouraged by the way his DOJ is linking the dots in an ever-tightening spiral that can lead to only one prime mover, the clear beneficiary of the entire seditious conspiracy to seize the presidency 😡 https://t.co/QhsbEdBa46 — PolitiTweet.org

“This profound disconnect between the will of the people and the court’s deregulatory agenda on the environment could not come at a more dangerous time — pushing people and the planet closer and closer to the point of no return.” https://t.co/Bg58WAz5eF — PolitiTweet.org

Qui bono? That’s the question whose answer always seems to point to some combination of Trump, Putin, and a small circle of corrupt autocrats . . . Never We the People! — PolitiTweet.org

“This previously unreported Michigan case is one of at least 17 incidents nationwide, including 11 in Michigan, in which Trump supporters gained or attempted to gain unauthorized access to voting equipment.” Is it a coincidence that all are GOP attempts? https://t.co/cLBdu2f4Vi — PolitiTweet.org

Fox “News” ran 1,098 primetime segments on Benghazi from the attack until the committee hearings, which they carried live for over 7 hours. Today the network announced it won’t cover the hearings on the January 6th insurrection. Conclusive proof that Fox isn’t NEWS at all. — PolitiTweet.org

“They were plotting ‘to oppose the lawful transfer of presidential power by force’ — to take from the majority of Americans their right to consent to the government under which we live, not the imposition of the will of a tyrannical minority on the rest of us.” — @HC_Richardson — PolitiTweet.org

“Children from Newtown, Uvalde, Buffalo, and other mass shootings, who were shot several times each beyond recognition with automatic high-capacity weapons, deserve to be remembered for how they lived, not how they died.” https://t.co/UrNWDZRitn — PolitiTweet.org

The likely SCOTUS ruling would “make it far easier to legally carry a handgun in NY state, which officials say may have violent consequences for cities already struggling to tamp down a spike in gun crime that began two years ago.” https://t.co/20oRRs02fS — PolitiTweet.org

Indictments for seditious conspiracy to prevent the lawful transfer of presidential power from Donald Trump to Joe Biden beg the question: Who stood to benefit? Not mainly the indicted Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, but . . . Guess who? — PolitiTweet.org

“Attempting to exchange one world view—or, one Umwelt — for another may be frustrating, but that’s what makes the effort worthwhile. It reminds us that, for all our vaunted intelligence, our Umweltis just one among millions.” https://t.co/WRAsRF75Xs — PolitiTweet.org

“The new charges show prosecutors pulling together a wider picture of organization within extremist groups that shared overlapping … goals …even as the FBI & DOJ are expanding their probe into the ranks of former president Donald Trump’s political orbit.”https://t.co/89iTaAanzc — PolitiTweet.org

Seditious conspiracy is huge. No more serious federal crime short of treason. Only several times in the past century have such charges been brought by DOJ. https://t.co/vbV34UgqO6 — PolitiTweet.org

It's fortunate for the 1/6 Committee and for the nation that Trump and his GOP cult will highlight the hearings starting this week in an effort to delegitimate them. The result will be to raise their profile and ensure a wider and more attentive audience, just what's needed! — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Unless the 1/6 Committee candidly admits it’s the grotesque Electoral College that’s the source of our worst problems, its proposed reforms will be well intended but largely useless. You can’t credibly champion the Truth while hiding it in plain sight. https://t.co/Pjej3hwM0j — PolitiTweet.org

“The mass killings facilitated by our absurdly weak gun laws, the cost of gas and groceries, Russia’s ongoing assault on Ukraine, and the overreach of an out-of-control SCOTUS majority all vie for public concern” as the 1/6 Committee tries to make us focus https://t.co/2a66QoOg4G — PolitiTweet.org

President George Washington, in his prescient 1796 Farewell Address, cautioned that American democracy was fragile and warned that “Cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government.” — PolitiTweet.org

“For far too long, those who oppose gun reforms have said that nothing can be done to stem the violence. Those claims are demonstrably wrong. The data we have shows that well-designed gun laws informed by science can save lives.” Here are 6 useful steps: https://t.co/87WRRfgZRP — PolitiTweet.org

This is a definitive if brief account by the great chroniclers of Nixon’s #Watergate explaining just how “Trump became the first seditious president in our history” and how gravely his return to power or that of anyone like him would imperil our democracy https://t.co/sAZ0c35u8y — PolitiTweet.org

“These five justices share both great confidence in the correctness of their own views and a militant lack of concern about the effects of sudden change on the public’s respect for the Court and the law.” And their hubris will erode democracy itself. https://t.co/mKNx8zcfZA — PolitiTweet.org

I agree. DOJ needs to say more about why Meadows and Scavino aren’t being prosecuted for criminal contempt of Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

Showing these images “would certainly generate secondary trauma, but history suggests that it would not change the minds of the men and women who have already accepted their deaths as the price of a warped vision of freedom.”  https://t.co/GNaQd85H30 — PolitiTweet.org
