Not only was Biden not suggesting that COVID is behind us; he wasn’t even denying that the situation remains an emergency in every relevant sense — only that it’s a contained emergency that no longer dominates everyday life. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be on MSNBC at 10:20 pm ET talking with @Lawrence about Trump’s latests efforts to have his cake and eat it too — by saying he’d declassified the government’s top secret documents before stealing them . . . but then saying it’d be unfair to expect him to offer any evidence! — PolitiTweet.org

11 GOP AGs just asked 11th Cir. to side w/Trump & Cannon over DOJ — not by arguing law or facts but by saying Biden’s gov’t dsn’t deserve the usual deference due Executive, just as Cannon said Trump deserves better treatment than other people! So much for equality before the law. — PolitiTweet.org

“The government gives me prima facie evidence that these are classified documents,” Judge Dearie said, referring to the plain markings on the records. “As far as I’m concerned, that’s the end of it.” https://t.co/pqexEuTD3Q — PolitiTweet.org

This is bound to come as a real shock to Trump. Earth has never been his natural habitat. Shutting up isn't a thing for him. And he's never in his life had to put up. At long last, the clock is truly ticking. — PolitiTweet.org

Petty and uncharitable and pathologically self-centered and lacking in even the slightest compensating virtues -- a man the likes of which I hope we never again entrust with power over the affairs of our nation, let alone the power to destroy human civilization . . . — PolitiTweet.org

The image of Trump "folding awkwardly" is just right, although it might be a bit redundant. How ELSE could His Trumpness fold? — PolitiTweet.org

“Steadily rising for the past decade, the Swedish far right has profited from the country’s growing inequalities, fostering an obsession with crime and an antipathy to migrants.”  Sound familiar? https://t.co/MUg6EpHE7j — PolitiTweet.org

It’s now more important than ever that Trumpophobia — the fear of what a cornered Trump might do — not deter the efforts to pin him down, charge him, and put him on trial for his many serious alleged crimes, state and federal. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump “‘“retruthed’ posts from QAnon, whose followers believe that he is leading a secret war against pedophiles and cannibals and that he will soon be placed back into power, arrest his Democratic enemies, try them, and execute some of them.” https://t.co/2j6RPINs7V — PolitiTweet.org

“Trump seems to know he is down to his last line of supporters, and he is rallying them to be ready to commit violence on his behalf, much as he did in the weeks before January 6, 2021.” https://t.co/2j6RPIMUin — PolitiTweet.org

Florida Governor DeSantis violated both Texas law and federal law if he lured the migrants “under false pretenses from a Migrant Resource Center in San Antonio to Martha’s Vineyard, ‘where they were  . . . stranded,’” after a brief stopover in Florida: https://t.co/o4YvovVeMV — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s “legal team objected to Dearie’s request that it ‘disclose specific information regarding declassification to the Court and the Government.’” Well, yeah! Did Trump expect that he could just keep HINTING that he MIGHT’VE declassified some of them? https://t.co/zah2Bqsdmo — PolitiTweet.org

Exactly right. An Espionage Act indictment of Trump not long after the midterms seems all but inevitable. — PolitiTweet.org

I just learned that Saul Kripke died on Sept 15. He was a genius, one of the very few I’ve ever met. His work on modal logic and on Wittgenstein was remarkable. He and I were friends in college. Knowing him made clear to me I had no business trying to be a serious mathematician. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s overt embrace of Qanon, a delusional and armed terrorist movement, is a terrifying sign that he is desperate and, realizing he will be indicted, is preparing to wage open war on the United States of America. It’s a testament to our tolerance that he isn’t under arrest. — PolitiTweet.org
