.@JeffreyToobin rightly notes that everyone’s seeming embrace of originalism in the impeachment context shouldn’t eclipse a more dynamic approach to constitutional interpretation. But here ALL approaches tell us that Trump’s abuse of power is impeachable https://t.co/Zjcd2CcKTr — PolitiTweet.org

Durham and Barr are sliming IG Horowitz now that Horowitz trashed Trump’s 2-year long effort to slime the origins of the Mueller probe. If Durham doesn’t end up agreeing with Trump, just watch Trump and Barr turn on Durham. Comey is right to predict as much. What a horror show! — PolitiTweet.org

The IG report finding Mueller’s probe justified might increase pressure on Dems to include an Obstruction of Justice Article of Impeachment based on Mueller Volume 2 but that remains unnecessary because Trump REENACTED his obstruction in his infamous July 25 call to Zelensky. — PolitiTweet.org

GOP counsel Castor’s ludicrous denial that @JoeBiden was a leading candidate for the Democratic Party when Trump tried to get Zelensky to smear Biden is like the 13th chime of a broken clock: it casts doubt on all the other chimes. — PolitiTweet.org

.@HeidiNBC’s right. Trump’s obstruction of justice in trying to erase Putin’s 2016 role needn’t be charged in a SEPARATE Article of Impeachment becuz Trump tried to get Ukraine president to erase that role in exchange for 391M aid & an Oval Officd mtg. That’s the abuse of office! — PolitiTweet.org

Anyone disappointed that the superb presentation by Dan Goldman doesn’t point to an Article of Impeachment re obstructing the Russia investigation should note that Trump’s impeachable asks of Zelensky included that he clear Russia of helping Trump in 2016. There’s the pattern! — PolitiTweet.org

The right to vote matters in two ways to the need to impeach: 1. Each citizen’s vote is at stake. That’s what makes this count at a personal level. 2. We cannot wait for the next election to take protective action. The integrity of that election is at stake. That’s the urgency. — PolitiTweet.org

Four key themes in abuse of power: — shredding the right to vote by inviting foreign governments to interfere in US elections — using public office for private gain — defying Congress’s impeachment power by across-the-board stonewalling — usurping Congress’s spending power — PolitiTweet.org

A word of advice as you listen to today’s hearing: Don’t wait for much emphasis on common law crimes like BRIBERY. TWO “high Crimes” that the evidence proves beyond doubt are: 1. ABUSE OF POWER and 2. DEFIANCE OF CONGRESS That’s what the PATTERN of Trump’s conduct shows. — PolitiTweet.org

While impeachment proceeds on one highly visible track, the lawsuits challenging Trump’s ongoing violations of the Emoluments Clauses quietly proceed on a less visible but also highly significant track. Here’s where two of those lawsuits stand this week: https://t.co/BwBueuhw0u — PolitiTweet.org

Even if Biden weren’t Trump’s political opponent, pressing a foreign government to smear a U.S. citizen by threatening to withhold defense funds appropriated by Congress unless that “favor” is performed is itself a grave abuse of presidential power whether or not completed. — PolitiTweet.org

.@kathleenparker says “If ... Biden were not running for president, no one would question Trump’s request for information related to [his son’s] position on the [Burisma] board.” Sort of like “Apart from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?” And see my next tweet. — PolitiTweet.org
