Abraham Lincoln loved telling this story. Ethan Allen, the hero of Ticonderoga, came to London after the Revolution. Rough hewn, to say the least, Allen was mocked by the British and a great insult was prepared for him on the occasion of his dining with a prominent Lord. (1) — PolitiTweet.org

There are a couple of things that stand out. 1. The incitement by cynical liars like @newtgingrich @GOPLeader @LindseyGrahamSC @FoxNews, all of whom have blood on their hands. 2. The absolute heroism, smarts and decisiveness of Officer Goodman. He for sure saved @MittRomney life. — PolitiTweet.org

These fascists call themselves Patriots. The marquee outside Madison Square Garden read “Pro America Rally.” Inside, it was filled to capacity with American Nazi’s looking at a stage with a 40 ft high banner of George Washington. The year was 1938 — PolitiTweet.org

You don’t have the guts to say Donald Trump lost the election fair and square. You didn’t vote in the ‘16 election but had the common sense to say Trump would be good for women. You hired Brad Parscale, Trump’s fired manager. You have jumped fully on board with the @FoxNews — PolitiTweet.org
