“As some GOP-led states … confront their most serious outbreaks yet, even rising death totals are being treated as less politically damaging than imposing COVID mandates of almost any stripe.” It’s a perversion of “Give me Liberty or Give me Death.” https://t.co/voxBDUokWn — PolitiTweet.org

If the states would simply distribute the remaining 89 percent of rental assistance funds Congress gave them in a timely manner, there would be no crisis at all! https://t.co/xJU0c6i0cI — PolitiTweet.org

“Americans hoping to fight the anti-vaccine movement must learn to use the same tools of political rhetoric and mobilization, to speak up against misinformation and to swarm lawmakers’ phone lines to oppose bills that harm public health.” https://t.co/iQnV9WNd4b — PolitiTweet.org

This turns the rule of law upside down by depriving abortion providers of any way to take this state-created target off their backs and forcing them to violate the 6-week ban in order to test its constitutionality. That in itself is unconstitutional! https://t.co/ImjsnIpe7v — PolitiTweet.org

Agreed. And the Woman’s Health Protection Act would be a constitutional exercise of Congress’ power to regulate interstate commerce, just as the Partial Birth Abortion Ban was: Gonzales v. Carhart (2007). The Commerce Clause is neutral on the pro-choice v. pro-life question. — PolitiTweet.org

Vitriolic as our political disagreements can be, we are a nation bound by the rule of law, not the rule of a revolver. Sirhan’s assassination of RFK struck at democracy’s very heart. Releasing him now would license violent attacks on free and fair elections. Remember January 6? — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

RFK’s murder was a stroke of terrorism, committed against the nation, obliterating the right of Americans to settle in the ballot booth the debates over his positions such issues as the Vietnam War, civil rights, social justice, poverty and U.S.-Israeli relations. No parole! — PolitiTweet.org

“Today we are not just hip and modern; we live in a land governed by the rule of law; we have procedures designed to prevent the meting-out of unfair punishment. Scarlet letters are a thing of the past. Except, of course, they aren’t.” Read on: https://t.co/9fHqFkqQTQ — PolitiTweet.org

State mask bans face federal civil rights inquiries: The Biden administration is right to challenge the bans as endangering children's health and discriminating against minority kids and kids with disabilities, violating basic rights. https://t.co/hjmQthrbNO via @BostonGlobe — PolitiTweet.org

The Afghanistan War just ended was begun 7,267 days ago by President George W. Bush. A quarter of today’s Americans hadn’t been born when GWB announced the invasion. Killed: 2,461 US soldiers, 3,846 US contractors, 66,000 Afghan military, 47,245 Afghan civilians, 52,191 Taliban. — PolitiTweet.org

Those far-fetched hypothetical outcomes were evidence that the SCOTUS majority was driven by predetermined opposition as a policy matter to CDC’s entirely lawful exercise of its statutory authority under sec 361(a) of the Public Health Service Act. — PolitiTweet.org

A nutjob like Cawthorn is playing with fire. He doesn't belong in any public office. — PolitiTweet.org

“The attacks by Isis-K at Kabul airport led the US’s national security and surveillance authorities to intensify for the future the very moves into endless counter-terrorism that so worried Obama and which helped propel Trump into office.” https://t.co/RtNguJA6fW — PolitiTweet.org

I’m glad @DonaldAyer6 has drawn attention to the parallel between political assassination and violent insurrection. Both deny our right of electoral choice. — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden has solid legal grounds to defend kids — and the local authorities who are protecting their rights to safe classrooms — from state governors who would expose our children to a Hobson’s choice between playing hooky and getting sick https://t.co/9fg4XxtvKa — PolitiTweet.org

“The insistence that there must have been a painless way — or, by gosh, a less [painful] way! — to lose a 20-year war, rescue all imperiled Afghans and avoid any more casualties is a fable too many insist on cultivating.” https://t.co/vkLzDKTwBH — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Newsom: PLEASE LISTEN TO THESE SIX CHILDREN OF BOBBY KENNEDY. THEY WERE AMONG THE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF SIRHAN SIRHAN’S INNOCENT VICTIMS. JUSTICE IS NOW IN YOUR HANDS. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

As we mourn the tragic deaths of these 13 young troops, let’s remember that it was the decision to send them to Afghanistan, not the decision to withdraw as soon as we did, that cost them their lives. The longer we stayed, the more such tragedies . . . https://t.co/lENQ4NaIxl — PolitiTweet.org

In this hint-filled interview, Justice Breyer agreed with former Chief Justice Rehnquist that deciding when to resign “is not a judicial decision,” making it appropriate for him to consider who will name his replacement as he makes his decision on timing https://t.co/vUXsTY41kx — PolitiTweet.org

This defeat shows what harm totally inept lawyering can do. The plaintiffs here made a truly ridiculous one person-one vote argument, not remotely like the strong one person-one vote argument developed by UC Law School Dean Chemerinsky. Such a shame! https://t.co/KRFQvMfY4b — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

The plea by two of RFK’s sons to release Sirhan Sirhan should count for nothing. RFK’s assassination was a crime against the people of California and America, not just against the Kennedy family. Justice and the safety of potential future victims aren’t theirs to give away. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Now that the parole board has voted to release Sirhan Sirhan, only Governor Newsom can step up and say NO WAY! I hope he does just that regardless of the potential impact on his recall vote. — PolitiTweet.org
