Authoritarian/Fascist movements despise dissent and will ALWAYS attack and punish acts of conscience. Deviations in loyalty to the cause of the Party; Power, are not tolerated. Loyalty means obedience to the Leader, Trump. Trump trumps the Constitution and the Oath of Office — PolitiTweet.org

👇I’m not sure if this is more an example of dreck or drivel. At any rate, it’s pseudo-intellectual right wing pablum that has always tickled a peculiar erogenous zone for the type of people hypnotized by the mediocrity of Ayn Rand into believing they received a revelation. — PolitiTweet.org

Each is a masterpiece, a composition that captures the chaos and essence of our shared moment in time. They are accounts of events but also meditations on ethics, power, democracy, truth, accountability, responsibility and citizenship. There is no one statue in Florence that — PolitiTweet.org

Coverup. No one book reveals “THE TRUTH,” though they all reveal many truths. Together they form a type of mosaic that is rooted in a foundation of facts and contemporaneous accounts, that while beggaring the imagination, are corroborated credible, believable and provable. — PolitiTweet.org

long tradition of the peaceful transition of power came to an end. It is during these months that faith and belief in American democracy was poisoned by the lying of a defeated President and the corrupt leadership of his party in Congress that abetted an insurrection and its — PolitiTweet.org

Here is a question that I have been wondering about. Does Trump have any newfound interest or affection for Grover Cleveland? @MichaelWolffNYC I think the book, Landslide should be read by every American. It is one of four profoundly important books which include @CarolLeonnig — PolitiTweet.org

The issue isn’t @TuckerCarlson ‘s beliefs. He is an extremist, a liar, a demagogue and a propagandist for an authoritarian cause. That is protected. The issue is his purposeful conduct. His actions kill. The spread of death and disease has been hastened by his immoral antics — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

Another problem is this. Historians reveal the past. Psychics predict the future. The idea of Biden facing future opprobrium for the immoral conduct of @FoxNews @TuckerCarlson, Trump and @GOPLeader is lunacy. Brinkley is a better historian than psychic. Much better. — PolitiTweet.org

LOL. What is the statute? The Goebbels Act for the Preservation of a Propagandists Right to Kill With Lies and Conspiracy Theories? The First Amendment is a beautiful thing. What he is doing is expressing moral outrage @TuckerCarlson ‘s immoral and deadly conduct. U r a felon — PolitiTweet.org

Eisenhower anticipated the crimes he witnessed, committed by the Nazi regime, would be denied. He made sure the crimes were witnessed by German civilians ordered to visit the camps and bury the dead. He made sure there were as many eyewitnesses as possible. — PolitiTweet.org

power restraint is an admirable quality. When restraint yields to passivity and inaction fueled by naïveté and willful blindness it’s a different matter. Time to clarify the choice. Time to Choose as conservatives used to like to say. — PolitiTweet.org
