Right. Like so much else Trumpian: It’d all be hilarious . . . if it weren’t about what it is about! — PolitiTweet.org

“The latest term was merely a supercharged, unbalanced version of what the Court has done for most of its history.” Those of us who never taught constitutional law as a liberal tribute to the Court’s wisdom have less retooling to do than those who did.  https://t.co/bVfVlHIDti — PolitiTweet.org

“Stoked by Mr. Trump’s characteristic demagogy, his supporters immediately leaped to the worst and most dire possibilities without pausing to get the facts and targeted the F.B.I. as an institution.” Right. But then Rich Lowry dives into “whataboutism.”  https://t.co/TeF51MZv4U — PolitiTweet.org

That’s 10 x 10 x 10, for those of you who’re counting federal felonies by the former guy who still calls himself the president — PolitiTweet.org

Right-wing journalist John Solomon just posted a letter dated May 10 from the acting archivist of the United States to a lawyer for former president Trump. It is a damning revelation of the extent of the stolen documents and Trump’s personal refusal to return them. Bazinga. — PolitiTweet.org

“The only real continuity in the defense is Mr. Trump himself, and his demands that his lawyers do what he wants, which is why so many of his legal filings sound as if they were dictated by him.” And why so few have any sticking power. https://t.co/B3yu7Vfu7C — PolitiTweet.org

“Trump ignored multiple opportunities to quietly resolve the FBI concerns by handing over all classified material in his possession — causing some in his orbit to fear he was essentially daring the FBI to come after him.”  https://t.co/jvAyMj2EX6 — PolitiTweet.org

This $1.6B donation just made history as the largest single sum ever contributed to the effort to destroy democracy -- and the scandal is that this crime is perfectly legal, thanks to the Court its donor helped to create https://t.co/FeB0szoSOR — PolitiTweet.org

How's this for concise? You can count on @emptywheel to get right to the heart of things. She hit this nail on the nose. Ouch. — PolitiTweet.org

Joy Reid interviews me on MSNBC right after Trump’s new legal team takes its maiden flight with a weak and belated motion for appointment of a special master in the Mar-a-Lago saga https://t.co/9svApUEG9y — PolitiTweet.org

A bunch of reasons for saying that the US Supreme Court isn’t a court of law and its justices aren’t judges: https://t.co/XGvxLh2fds — PolitiTweet.org

The vast number of tentacles this corrupt democracy-destroying octopus is turning out to have mustn’t be allowed to slow the painstaking process of indicting the head of the beast before it swallows our republic whole, chews it up, and spits it out. https://t.co/tyUWiOzv6j — PolitiTweet.org

“No documentation has come to light confirming that Mr. Trump declassified the material, and the potential crimes cited by the Justice Department in seeking the search warrant for Mar-a-Lago would not hinge on the classification status of the documents.” https://t.co/crH8BYOfOv — PolitiTweet.org

Watch @JoyAnnReid on MSNBC at 7:15 p ET. Joy will interview me about the latest from Mar-a-Lago: What can we expect the judge who issued the search warrant to release from the affidavit that led him to issue the warrant? How well is the system of checks & balances working? — PolitiTweet.org

“It might be advisable to start on at least one case well in advance of the 2024 election.” Read this superb analysis of the pros & cons of the many strategies available to AG Garland: https://t.co/m6LD9hsCwT — PolitiTweet.org

These fetal personhood laws “have the potential to criminalize common health care procedures and limit the rights of a pregnant woman in making health care decisions.” That’s their real purpose. They’re more anti-woman than pro-life. https://t.co/VzbzxiHF1l — PolitiTweet.org

They say “liberals have been trying to reclaim the Constitution for 50 years — with agonizingly little to show for it.” What about W. Va. v Barnette? Brown v Bd of Ed? Reynolds v Sims? Gideon v Wainwright? Griswold v CT? Katz v US? Obergefell v Hodges?  https://t.co/OUmdoq70l4 — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

The authors err in supposing that constitutions necessarily “misdirect the present into a dispute over what people agreed on once upon a time” to the exclusion of “what the present and future demand for and from those who live now.” We need both. https://t.co/OUmdoq70l4 — PolitiTweet.org

I agree with @JoyceWhiteVance and @ThePlumLineGS here. Cipollone is no profile in courage. He could and should have blown the whistle on the tyrant long before Trump left office. — PolitiTweet.org

@NormEisen has this right. Those trying to make a silk purse out of this sow’s ear from the 11th Cir are fooling themselves — or know better and are trying to fool you. — PolitiTweet.org

To search or not to search? Here’s my analysis (together with Professor Jeffrey Abramson of UT and former prosecutor Dennis Aftergut) of why conservatives and liberals alike should cheer the way our legal system answers that question: https://t.co/7mUL2G1NHW — PolitiTweet.org

Homework assignment for all constitutionalists: Explain why this is a really terrible idea despite the germs of truth it contains and its value as a thought experiment. I’ll publish my answer to that question in due course, probably later this year. https://t.co/hVx2GMgWFX — PolitiTweet.org

Absolutely right. The claim that trying to protect confidential sources is unusual is total BS. — PolitiTweet.org
