Trump ads will try to blame our COVID plight on Biden’s China comments! Just how stupid do they think Americans are? https://t.co/WorhhTlMW2 — PolitiTweet.org

In context, this was close to direct incitement to armed overthrow of the Government of Virginia. That’s a serious crime in that state. The OLC opinion barring federal indictment of a sitting president isn’t binding on Virginia prosecutors. Just food for thought . . . — PolitiTweet.org

The “disgraceful situation,” Mr. President, is the one you’d create by pardoning your criminal accomplice, Roger Stone. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s nice that “Hamilton makes clear that the president can adjourn Congress only when both chambers disagree about the time of adjournment.” But what’s decisive isn’t Hamilton’s views: it’s the Constitution’s explicit TEXT saying exactly that. https://t.co/M2fLw6eW6k — PolitiTweet.org

There’s a strong argument that the “Senate cannot adjourn for more than three days without the House’s consent, and vice versa. If [they] disagree on how long to adjourn, the president can adjourn them [but only for] up to three days.” https://t.co/FoCI2pmgRS — PolitiTweet.org

Like many of his obviously unconstitutional threats, this one is mostly just bluster. The danger lies in how he uses it to distract — and in what it reveals he’d do in a second term, when no election looms. https://t.co/dCaHz2KzoL — PolitiTweet.org

“Trump’s tweets about “liberation” [are] at least tacit encouragement to citizens to take up arms against duly elected state officials of the party opposite his own, in response to sometimes unpopular but legally issued stay-at-home orders.” https://t.co/xkidKWvFCj — PolitiTweet.org

“Levying war against the United States” is Article III’s first definition of Treason. Inciting armed insurrection comes awfully close. Watch out, Mr. President. You’re playing with fire. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

.@ChrisMurphyCT is right. Donald Trump is inciting armed violence. This is beyond lawless. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

This is an INSANE call for domestic violence and insurrection. This man should be committed, not obeyed. He has gone over the edge. — PolitiTweet.org

If you listen to nothing else, listen to this. The great visual artist & poet, Peter Sacks, recites Zbigniew Herbert, oppressed by both Hitler & Stalin. In the background, some of Peter’s latest paintings. They weave history into the fabric of the present. This is my gift to you: — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s how Trump’s fixation on deregulating pollution is not only killing people generally but is specifically making COVID-19 much more deadly. The man is a clear and present danger to life itself. https://t.co/5CX7M6kDnq — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Guess why Trump isn’t as upset about this differential harm as a president who gave a damn about the most vulnerable would be? Retweet if you share my suspicion that Trump would be doing way more if rich white men were disproportionately hit by COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

No plan for testing. Nada. Zilch. Zero. This is what happens when we have a nothing president. One who’s in it for himself, not for the country. Not for us. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Developing an effective treatment regimen is also an option. But that’ll require national leadership akin to that of the Manhattan Project. Trump won’t provide that leadership. He can’t. It’s not in his DNA. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

The expert consensus seems to be that this virus won’t begin to disappear until a far higher % of the population — at least 60% — develops immunity. If that doesn’t happen with a vaccine, it must happen through exposure. So creating an effective vaccine is JOB 2. Testing is JOB 1 — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Because it’s too late to contain COVID-19, there’s only one possible ending to the story: We must collectively develop immunity to the disease. In lieu of a vaccine, that means most of us will need to be exposed to the virus. Some unknowably large number of us will therefore die. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Uncertainty about COVID-19’s likely trajectory of mutations makes finding an effective vaccine especially challenging https://t.co/pMJ8hRwowN — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

.@SpeakerPelosi and House Intell Chair @RepAdamSchiff are right: Trump’s “plan” is all hat and no cattle. It’s silent on the key elements of testing and contact tracing. To the extent it has any content at all, it’s a recipe for more disease and death. https://t.co/p1FOxB2ytj — PolitiTweet.org

Coronavirus cases in the U.S.: Feb 15: 0 March 15: under 100 April 15: over 600,000 Deaths as of April 15: > 32,000 Most would’ve been avoided if Trump had reacted sensibly to the information he was given — PolitiTweet.org
