Pompeo’s pathetic “thanks” to the 1,000 more troops Trump is now sending to threaten Iran — to wag the dog of a war he says he wants to avoid — makes me puke. Using young Americans as pawns in a risky political game is beyond disgusting. — PolitiTweet.org

Even if this is pure bluster — and I fear it’s more — it’s a cruel way of inflicting pain on millions. Profoundly un-American, this vow could be carried out only by unconstitutional racial profiling, sweeping up people who “look” like “illegal aliens.” https://t.co/Mxx2bFlgJH — PolitiTweet.org

“[I]nsisting on a receptive [GOP] Senate as a condition for an impeachment would end it before it would start. It would concede the authority of the House to the Senate.” Read this excellent analysis. Its roadmap is a complement to mine. A must read! https://t.co/Xh3u5PbQJa — PolitiTweet.org

.@neal_katyal is right: Trump’s abuses of executive privilege will probably be curtailed by courts, potentially leaving future presidents with a weakened ability to get candid advice. But if courts fail in that task, we’re in for even greater trouble https://t.co/VIWxkGnRAO — PolitiTweet.org

This piece posits a deliberate slow-walking strategy by @SpeakerPelosi driven by fear of losing the HOUSE in 2020. That could backfire and is dangerous to the Constitution and the republic. We need #ImpeachmentInquiryNOW to get the essential witnesses. https://t.co/vBxsnO2c6w — PolitiTweet.org

@dorfonlaw Maybe it’s a signal Kavanaugh thinks really highly of Roe & Obergefell

On July 28, I’ll be at the 92d Street Y in NYC conversing with @heidibschreck (moderated by @Dahlialithwick) about What the Constitution Means To Each of Us. Hope to see many of you there! https://t.co/aphkCRyUtn — PolitiTweet.org

Listen to @RepKatiePorter. She came only after careful deliberation to the conclusion that we need to begin an #ImpeachmentInquiryNOW. Others should do the same. — PolitiTweet.org

Why? Because results aren’t everything. Call me crazy, but I still believe law matters — even though I have no illusions about its value-neutrality or its determinacy. Nor am I hopeful that the current Court will preserve the rights I care most deeply about. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw
SCOTUS at its best! I find the Gorsuch dissent more persuasive than the Alito majority, but the power of both & the fact that Roberts, Breyer, Thomas, Sotomayor, Kagan & Kavanaugh joined Alito while Ginsburg joined Gorsuch gives me hope for the Court: https://t.co/6be0jlOeVw — PolitiTweet.org

We will soon reach the point — if we haven’t already reached it — when those who oppose starting an #ImpeachmentInquiryNOW will become complicit in the ongoing violation of our Constitution and the continuing endangerment of our national security. Please wake up and move! — PolitiTweet.org

Fidelity to the Constitution demands #ImpeachmentInquiryNOW. But if some Dems remain scared of the “I” word, the LEAST they can do for now is call what they’re doing #InvestigatingPresidentialCrimesAndAbusesOfPower. It’s way more than standard “oversight,” for heaven’s sake. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m curious how @KatrinaNation and Stephen Cohen explain their repeated public denials that Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014-15. Why did they propagate Putin’s lies? Have they revised their views? A must-read is @TimothyDSnyder’s THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM (2018) pp 210-215. — PolitiTweet.org

Linda Greenhouse: “Should the House Democrats take a cue from Tribe and proceed to impeachment despite the seeming impossibility that the Senate would vote—by the constitutionally required two-thirds majority—to convict Trump and remove him from office?” https://t.co/FeqEY8TuTI — PolitiTweet.org

“[T]he description of the world offered by ... RT: no one really ever tells the truth, perhaps there is no truth, so let us simply repeat the things we like to hear, and obey those who say them. That way lies authoritarianism.” @TimothyDSnyder, THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM” (2018). — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. Supreme Court “prepared the way for Trump to claim, as he did, that in an American oligarchy Americans could only be safe if they elected their own oligarch: himself.” @TimothyDSnyder, THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM (2018) p.253. — PolitiTweet.org

“Russia’s intervention in the 2016 US election was not just an attempt to get a certain person elected. . .The victory of a Russian-backed candidate could be less important, in the long run, then the evolution of the system as a whole away from democracy.” THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM. — PolitiTweet.org

“[F]reedom depends on citizens who are able to [distinguish] between what is true and what they want to hear. Authoritarianism arrives not because people say they want it, but because they lose the ability to distinguish between facts and desires.” Snyder, THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM. — PolitiTweet.org

“ One success of Russia’s cyberwar was that the seductiveness of the secret and the trivial drew Americans away from the obvious and the important: that the sovereignty of the United States was under visible attack.” Yale historian @TimothyDSnyder, “THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM” (2018). — PolitiTweet.org
