“In a 2-to-1 order, the judges did not give detailed reasoning for their action.” That’s one way of putting it. Another is: They gave no reasoning at all! https://t.co/AOkfQhozie — PolitiTweet.org

“Bannon, who left the White House in 2017, cannot possibly be covered by executive privilege. This isn’t even close. Bannon should suck it up like a citizen, do his duty and turn over everything he knows about this domestic terror attack on Congress.” https://t.co/EtWNwbJH2C — PolitiTweet.org

Bannon, regaled in multilayered shirts, will pretend not to defy the subpoena but just to be seeking judicial advice. That'll start the long slow walk that kills truth-seeking. Even a DOJ eager to prosecute contempt of Congress will find itself stymied by the protracted appeals. — PolitiTweet.org

At a time when reproductive rights are under extreme assault in many states, this deeply researched and hyperlinked guide is vastly more important than 99% of mere opinion pieces. This is must reading for OB-GYNs and ANYONE WHO MIGHT BECOME PREGNANT!!!!!! https://t.co/9nJQT9DV59 — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, referrals to DOJ for criminal contempt prosecutions of those defying Congress’s subpoenas. About time! — PolitiTweet.org

Expect Trump to say he actually won this lawsuit (although he lost), that it wasn't in fact tossed out (although it was), that it's all part of the Big Lie against him . . . — PolitiTweet.org

A sobering thought. So let’s hope AG Garland hasn’t already decided not to bring criminal charges against the probably guilty former president . . . — PolitiTweet.org

“Legitimacy is never itself the justification of an institution. In a democracy, the value by which to judge institutions—to safeguard if they serve it and reform them if not—is whether they advance or incarnate our collective self-rule.” https://t.co/ysyE3pRtuY — PolitiTweet.org

Huzzah! The "Midnight in Washington" book by @RepAdamSchiff is really terrific. If you've not yet bought it, you should! — PolitiTweet.org

I endorse this entire legislative package but reject any implication that the laws as they stand today, however inadequate, would leave principled judges dedicated to democracy and the rule of law powerless to stop the Coup 2.0 I’m sure Trump is planning. https://t.co/Ej8SPTvZAj — PolitiTweet.org

"Permitting the nation to default on its debts would crash the economy and destroy our international standing, likely for the foreseeable future. But Republicans are willing to do that if it means regaining power by playing to their base." https://t.co/XoeCU1gM6B — PolitiTweet.org

In voting overnight to raise the debt ceiling by $480 billion & keep the US afloat till Dec 3, Congress was just authorizing the US to pay for past spending, including the $7.8 trillion of Trump’s 4 yrs. Not a single Republican voted yes. Good politics? Maybe. Lunacy? For sure. — PolitiTweet.org

“Modern data-driven economics tends to support more activist economic policies: Raising wages, helping children and aiding the unemployed are all better ideas than many politicians seem to believe.” Political uses of economics build in a right-wing bias! https://t.co/X6rs2FRC7l — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s a bit of good news: We have 1,120 days until the 2024 presidential election and we clearly see a Trump coup in the offing. This far ahead of the 2016 election, in 2013, almost nobody could imagine Trump in the White House. In that limited sense, we’re way ahead of the game — PolitiTweet.org

“He’s like a shark that's not gone, just gone out to sea, but actually he's been quietly eating people this whole time — methodically purging the GOP of anyone who voted for his impeachment or doesn't believe that he is the rightful leader of the Seven Kingdoms." — @billmaher — PolitiTweet.org
