The right question: Is #CadetBoneSpurs a coward — or is he a traitor? — PolitiTweet.org

Being AWOL is a violation of the Presidential Oath and his Article II duties. Trump has flunked badly and needs to be replaced with a real president before his dereliction of duty — and worse — injures and kills still more Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Knowing @NormEisen, I can recommend this book even before reading it. Nobody knows more about the #ImpeachTrump saga than Norm does: he really WAS #InTheRoomWhereItHappened — and his insights about where we go from here are incomparable. — PolitiTweet.org

Staggering — and stupefyingly stupid — Trump attempt at concealment in #BountyGate — PolitiTweet.org

Such an investigation is IMPERATIVE — PolitiTweet.org

This @Dahlialithwick analysis gets things backwards: Roberts holds that an obstacle to abortion that imposes a “substantial burden” on a woman’s freedom to choose CANNOT BE SAVED by “balancing” the offsetting benefits. That STRENGTHENS the Casey standard, not weakens it. — PolitiTweet.org

Why? Because a “normal American president” isn’t beholden to and besotted with a foreign dictator, that’s why. — PolitiTweet.org

“Then-national security adviser John Bolton told colleagues he briefed Trump on the intelligence assessment [about Russian bounties on the heads of U.S. troops] in March 2019,” a full year earlier than previously reported. https://t.co/EfDYfjlWbm — PolitiTweet.org

What if Trump didn’t exactly shoot anyone on Fifth Avenue but constantly did favors for dictators who offered bounties to those who did the shooting and succeeded in killing returning US vets? — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

AP reports that classified intell revealed in 2019 that Russia was secretly offering bounties to the Taliban for killing American troops. That’s a year earlier than previously reported. And all the while, Trump was kissing up to Putin. Can we let him get away with that? — PolitiTweet.org

BTW, it’s long been clear to me that Judge Mike Luttig (then of CA4) would’ve been a far better choice for SCOTUS than then-Judge Sam Alito (then of CA3) was. I would’ve disagreed with Justice Luttig often but disrespected his reasoning never. Too bad Bush chose Alito over Luttig — PolitiTweet.org

A really clever dissection of Chief Justice Roberts’ position in June Medical Services v. Russo, the Louisiana abortion case, by @Dahlialithwick. But whether Roberts was being quite as cagey as Lithwick was being clever isn’t entirely clear to me. https://t.co/S9r8dpbSrS — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Exactly. Trump’s decision to brief only GOP on #BountyGate is itself harmful to national security and profoundly anti-American. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Of course Trump himself poses a national security threat to the United States. That’s unfortunately a no-brainer. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Yes! — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

This is a brilliant demonstration of why the DC Circuit’s 2-1 decision was indefensible. And it makes a basic point that the dissent and all other critics of the Rao opinion have thus far missed. Judge Luttig, a principled conservative, nailed it here. https://t.co/RVwhzuXLYp — PolitiTweet.org

This is one helluva good idea. Long overdue. #inherentcontempt for sure! And it’s fully constitutional as well as historically sound and badly needed. This final version is a good start. https://t.co/T5UKBZXJ2A — PolitiTweet.org

JUSTICE BREYER, dissenting: “The Court ... asks the wrong question & gives the wrong answer. This case is not about the 1st Amendment rights of foreign organizations. It is —and has always been — about the 1st Amendment rights of American organizations.” https://t.co/zsqHAq5KEW — PolitiTweet.org

The CFPB dodged a lethal bullet when SCOTUS held its provision making the single director removable only for cause was severable, thereby saving the agency itself. Whew. @SenWarren’s baby survives! https://t.co/tAN03WABlV — PolitiTweet.org

Good. But this precedent isn't enough to protect reproductive rights. Please help @NARAL continue their fight against more baseless attacks on abortion access. https://t.co/vvFwtLO2Ph — PolitiTweet.org

Kavanaugh is showing himself to be considerably less protective of free speech than Kennedy was, but I predict he’ll be at least as protective of corporate spending on speech. — PolitiTweet.org

Adding the Louisiana abortion decision to the DACA decision and the LGBTQ decision makes me especially proud of my former constitutional law student, Chief Justice John Roberts. — PolitiTweet.org
