The FBI seems to be pursuing those involved in planning the insurrection as well as the rioters. Let’s hope they follow the food chain all the way to its source at the top, with no artificial stopping point! https://t.co/LBMFnJTO0Q — PolitiTweet.org

I see 2024/2025 exactly as #billmaher does. He's not being alarmist. He's being a realist. We need to prepare to resist the scenario Maher correctly sees Trump's enablers preparing for the next presidential election. Ignoring it won't make it disappear. — PolitiTweet.org

Agreed the ECA should be reformed to reduce the risk of Coup 2.0, but let's not make the mistake of saying it "MUST" be reformed. Even as it stands, the ECA invalidates an Eastman-type coup & the new versions being cooked up by the Trumpsters. — PolitiTweet.org

If this doesn't move you first to tears and then to action, you're hopeless. This little girl speaks a truth nobody should have to express in 2021. Listen to her. — PolitiTweet.org

Because "the former president incited an attack on his own country and has continued to push the Big Lie undermining our electoral process, our democracy (already on life support) would suffer likely irreversible damage if [his attempted coup] is further ignored." — PolitiTweet.org

Now @Claremontlist is getting into bed with #JohnEastman in trying to launder his role in conspiring with #DonaldTrump to engage in a coup and thereby violate 18 U.S.C. sec. 2384 (seditious conspiracy), punishable by 20 years in prison. — PolitiTweet.org

“A coup attempt that is not punished is a training exercise.” — @TheRickWilson tells it like it is. LISTEN, JANUARY 6 COMMITTEE! CRIMINAL REFERRALS FOR CONTEMPT MUST BE MORE THAN TALKING POINTS. TO DOJ LEADERSHIP — INCLUDING AG GARLAND: USE ALL THE POWERS AT YOUR DISPOSAL. — PolitiTweet.org

“By recognizing that rallying the nation behind the cause of democracy is now his most important task, Biden would do more than reboot his presidency and give his party a fighting chance in 2022. He’d be doing what he was elected to do.” https://t.co/8APKmDeayG — PolitiTweet.org

“We should note here that we were of the impression that this was all a protest that got out of hand? How could there be documents that implicate Trump in a protest that got out of hand? Puzzling.” https://t.co/u3U5lLNAmQ — PolitiTweet.org

Our republic was never a democracy — but it was the most democratic non-democracy on earth at the time of the founding and kept becoming more so — until now. To avoid democracy’s demise, we must study the original compromise that planted its seeds. https://t.co/46SduI9ZKF — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans who still respect the Constitution should be willing to join in this effort.” I’m confident that’s not (yet) an extinct species. Here’s the effort: https://t.co/L7MrmznL2C — PolitiTweet.org

.@AdamSchiff is too kind to me in his new book, but it’s a terrific read anyway, as the Washington Post’s @CarlosLozadaWP — a tough cookie — says in this first review of #MidnightInWashington: https://t.co/cH232BcI24 — PolitiTweet.org

“The constitutional protections of executive privilege should not be used to shield, from Congress or the public, information that reflects a clear and apparent effort to subvert the Constitution itself.” — WH Counsel Dana Remus is right. That’s why POTUS isn’t invoking it. — PolitiTweet.org

The coup’s failure in 2020-21 mustn’t give us false confidence in 2024-25. Although Trump won’t have the benefits of incumbency, he’s systematically changing the shape of the battlefield, the troops on the ground, and the rules of engagement. https://t.co/ufLyrXaZbB — PolitiTweet.org

I've had the privilege of reading Adam Schiff's magnificent book in the past few days. Nothing else out there captures as vividly and brilliantly how close we came to losing our way of life and the peril we still face, but why we need not despair and have every reason for hope. — PolitiTweet.org

Some say TX clinics could still face retroactive state lawsuits if they perform pre-viability abortions shielded by the federal court’s preliminary injunction. I’d argue that would violate due process and federal supremacy even if the PI is eventually lifted, which it shdn’t be. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

This isn’t a novel idea, but it’s a dumb and dangerous one, possible in theory but deadly in fact. I’ve explained elsewhere that it would court financial catastrophe and risk a global depression. It’s irresponsible of the NYT to float it without rebuttal. https://t.co/EFkcYObIGo — PolitiTweet.org
