The fact that getting the help of the slezoid Roger Stone on his slimy campaign might plausibly have motivated Trump’s corrupt and impeachable abuse of his commutation power is enough to condemn Trump in the eyes of anyone who cares about the U.S. https://t.co/Qa38wWoaiT — PolitiTweet.org

Great ad. Because it’s TRUE as well as inspiring. #CadetBoneSpurs Trump is a total phony. He needs to GO. Now. Yesterday, in fact. — PolitiTweet.org

Good for Chris Wallace! As with #SanctuaryCities, the tried and true Trump technique of threatening illegal funding cutoffs to impose crazy and cruel national policies will get shot down by the courts if it ever takes flight. Good riddance! https://t.co/g35ZRKk1ON — PolitiTweet.org

Being “sidelined” is Trump code for being given the “choice” between “resigning” and being shoved out. If Fauci has any self-respect left after his immersion in the swamp, he should give Trump the finger — politely, of course — and depart under protest. https://t.co/HCcsFHeyQg — PolitiTweet.org

.@DanaBashCNN just conducted one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. She calmly exposed @BetsyDeVosED as an ignorant fraud unable to think clearly, speak coherently, or honestly address the matters she’s responsible for handling — matters vital to all our children. — PolitiTweet.org

The title of this piece might strike you as alarmist or over the top. After you’ve read it (it’s mercifully short), you’re likely to ask whether the title actually understates how close we are to a dictatorship already. All the elements are in place https://t.co/G8v82jcKxH — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s threats to pull federal money from school systems that opt for online learning this Fall to protect the health of kids and their parents are politically driven constitutionally dubious bluster nobody should listen to. It’s just Trump being Trump. That’s not a compliment. — PolitiTweet.org

Yep. Trumplandia is a poster child for RICO. And then some. Not every racketeering-influenced corrupt organization is more loyal to Russia’s oligarchs than to Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

NOW Mueller speaks up! Better late than never? Well, sort of. But not a helluva lot better, sadly. https://t.co/aDhJiiKYdc — PolitiTweet.org

From @jorie_graham: “If we don’t all help each other register to vote it matters not a whit what our beliefs or politics r as we are aiding the arrival of a full on totalitarian regime...We must reinvent the registration drive.” https://t.co/PPTGcFNrg1 https://t.co/nYyz5ZY6YP — PolitiTweet.org

Yes! @jorie_graham has this one just right: MUZZLED! Pull it on tighter, Trumpface! — PolitiTweet.org

“Stone epitomizes the danger the Framers had in mind when they debated the pardon power.” They naively thought any president who used pardons or commutations so corruptly would swiftly be removed through impeachment. If only! https://t.co/G7I6bzkTR2 — PolitiTweet.org

“With the commutation of Roger Stone’s well-deserved prison sentence and so many other vile acts, [Trump] has disgraced the nation’s highest office as no previous occupant has come close to doing.” https://t.co/6TslBNDT8F — PolitiTweet.org

A vital message to send everyone who voted for Trump in 2016: “Everybody makes mistakes. I’ve made plenty. You needn’t feel guilty about having supported Trump. He turned out worse than you feared. It’s not too late to change course. These Republicans have. Join them!” — PolitiTweet.org

Please please please retweet this terrific videoclip of a little girl whose message about wearing masks is way way smarter and more powerful than what our so-called “leaders” mumble daily. Everyone should listen to her. Retweet if you agree! — PolitiTweet.org

Sounds about right: low-IQ narcissist paranoia with borderline personality and signs of megalomania. But I’m no shrink, so what do I know? Not much about diagnoses but just enough about how the dude acts to know he’s definitely unfit for office and extremely dangerous to us all — PolitiTweet.org

An entire generation will be shaped not just by the COVID pandemic and how it has reshaped American life but by the Trump presidency and the savage cruelty, racism, and ineptitude on display daily from the seat of power. Those memories will be indelible. https://t.co/1wiaqr0OyL — PolitiTweet.org

The idea of “selling” Puerto Rico is so Trumpian that it’s amazing he didn’t propose it on his way down that escalator in Trump Tower. He probably thinks he owns the U.S. citizens he was throwing rolls of paper towels at during Hurricane Maria. https://t.co/au5gHwvSjb — PolitiTweet.org

Of course the First Amendment blocks this ham-handed effort to prevent Cohen from publishing his book. No responsible lawyer could argue otherwise. @rgoodlaw has clearly nailed it. https://t.co/NmusETMDRG — PolitiTweet.org

An “almost resigned” is about as significant as an “almost fxxked.” Close but no cigar. If they don’t resign over THIS, both Pat Cipollone and Bill Barr are whores without scruples. @NicolleDWallace called it last night on @maddow. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Obviously true @AshaRangappa_ but unclear what to DO about it other than working our hearts out ❤️ to save the republic from this criminal takeover in November. Once we’ve done that, we can and should turn to holding this gang accountable, starting with Trump and Barr. — PolitiTweet.org

“Stone is the central figure in the greatest scandals in U.S. history. Ames, Hanssen, the Rosenbergs, Alger Hiss, [Trump]. And now he [gets] a commutation ... from the president he” protected from charges that he stole office with Russia’s help. Cool. 😎🕵🏼 https://t.co/76igWl5K0Z — PolitiTweet.org

So far, Trump’s corrupt abuses of power have mostly operated by rewarding his criminal allies. Next up: abusing his executive powers to screw his adversaries. He’s left no doubt that’s next, and Barr has made clear he’s more than willing to do Trump’s bidding. — PolitiTweet.org
