Once asked whether evil was more powerful than good. He said no but quipped that it was better organized. It seems a prescient comment in this moment of American radicalism. The question is how far the American people will let this all go. Democracy won’t be lost in America — PolitiTweet.org

our broken politics has gotten since the Trump Coup and there is an absolute black hole of nothingness where there should be focus and passion around defending American democracy and a birthright of freedom that remains the envy of people all over the world. Desmond Tutu was — PolitiTweet.org

we are ready to abandon the American experiment and bury the dream of a just society built on the noble idea that at long last we can be a nation of equality and justice for all people, that life liberty and the pursuit of happiness applies to all Americans. Perspective can — PolitiTweet.org

An 18 year old vigilante killer has become a cultural icon for the MAGA right. A Holocaust denier Congressman denounced by his family has been embraced by all but two of his GOP colleagues for his murderous fantasies about a Member of Congress. A tide of extremism has risen from — PolitiTweet.org

Tonight the Proud Boy fascists, militia extremists, Neo Nazi’s, Klansmen and other domestic enemies are exultant. They are rejoicing. We will see a lot more AR-15’s at protests and some of those weapons will be used in the name of self defense to kill Americans peacefully — PolitiTweet.org

.@DrJasonJohnson is killing it tonight filling in for @JoyAnnReid on the @thereidout on @msnbc. He could not be more correct about the danger we face from WHITE-Nationalist/SUPREMACY terror. We stand at the edge of a terrible season of political violence in this country. — PolitiTweet.org

Professional Tennis 🎾 players are about to face a character test. It is pass/fail. The leading voices of the sport will speak out or not. Those that do not speak out and demand information on the whereabouts of Peng Shuai are cowards, no matter how good their serve is. — PolitiTweet.org

But none of this is enough. The @iocmedia International Olympic Committee has said it intends to engage in quiet diplomacy with the Chinese government. That is code for “ we are terrified of the Chinese Government” They are the words of cowards. @POTUS should speak to this as — PolitiTweet.org

11 weeks from tonight the Olympic Games will open in China. Unless and until MISSING Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai is accounted for there should be a US Boycott of the games. The Women’s Tennis Association has spoken out and the incomparable @serenawilliams has raised her voice — PolitiTweet.org

👇 “Growing Insurgency”. @PaulRieckhoff says it is a growing insurgency. That is a startling phrase in an era where nothing much startles anymore. He is right. It is growing, metastasizing and becoming more dangerous. — PolitiTweet.org
