My new long interview in the Dallas Morning News. To "checkmate tyranny" the forces of democracy need to be strategic instead of jumping at every cheap tactic. https://t.co/wrWhqF2JcX — PolitiTweet.org

No dissent is too small to crush in Russia today. The goal is terror. Putin stopped caring about how things looked to the outside world long ago. Why should he care? — PolitiTweet.org

Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63

To people saying "but Trump didn't get away with it", that's idiotic. You cannot wait for someone to get away with a crime when its goal is to take power and cover it up. And robbing a bank is still illegal if the cashier doesn't give you the money! — PolitiTweet.org

By the way, Mason & Madison also warned that impeachment would be essential in case the president tried to pardon his way out of trouble, if he's "connected in any suspicious manner with any person and .. will shelter him". To keep in mind... — PolitiTweet.org

Trump's impeachment is a stress test for American democracy and the Constitution as designed. Soliciting a foreign power for personal gain is exactly what the Founders feared. — PolitiTweet.org

Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63

Madison added, "[The president] might pervert his administration into a scheme of peculation or oppression. He might betray his trust to foreign powers." And so the phrase "high crimes and misdemeanors against the United States" was added to "bribery and treason". — PolitiTweet.org

George Mason: "Shall the man who has practiced corruption, and by that means procured his appointment in the first instance, be suffered to escape punishment by repeating his guilt?"—Philadelphia, July 20, 1787 — PolitiTweet.org

Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63

When Morris suggested at the Constitutional Convention that reelection would be "sufficient proof of innocence", Mason asked: "Shall any man be above justice? Shall that man be above it who can commit the most extensive injustice?" — PolitiTweet.org

Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63

The GOP will switch from "he didn't do it" to "he did it, but it's not so bad." But it is. Trump committed all of the original sins envisioned by the Founders: abuse of power, self-dealing, foreign intervention. — PolitiTweet.org

I suppose Trumpism is the paragon of the traditional Republican desire for small government. They now want a government of just one man! — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks for the email, but while I'm concerned by some socialist proposals by the far left, the slavish, Soviet-style devotion to party & Dear Leader by people who call themselves conservatives worries me much more. https://t.co/OzANh74bC7 — PolitiTweet.org

Indeed. A Democrat who denied climate change would be ostracized, but denying the Armenian genocide in the past & the Syrian genocide in the present are apparently acceptable positions. — PolitiTweet.org
