Field of Vision - A Night at the Garden. Please take 7 minutes and watch the Oscar nominated short film by Marshall Curry. The marquee at Madison Square Garden said it was a patriotic event. Does it remind you of anything ? ⁦@ProjectLincoln⁩ https://t.co/YhiSdjDsYd — PolitiTweet.org

@IChotiner You are a reporter and accuracy and truth should matter. There was no Howard Schultz campaign. He pondered a campaign and didn’t run. I advised his thinking about it. He was specific about not being a spoiler. What does that have to do with what I said? — PolitiTweet.org

There is no personality and no issue more important than the defense of American democracy. The strategy around defining the magnitude of this vote has been appalling. That is unacceptable. Senate Democrats need a leader who knows what direction to look for the battle. It’s here — PolitiTweet.org

The filibuster should not be ended for politics and policy disagreements. It can and should be ended in defense of the American Republic and to protect the voting franchise for Black Americans. There seems to be a profound lack of imagination among many Senate Dems over the — PolitiTweet.org

The measurement of @SenSchumer’s leadership should be his ability to hold his caucus together for the fight against the authoritarian movement. The defense of democracy is a moral issue because it is the ONLY system of government that places the HUMAN BEING over the state. 1/ — PolitiTweet.org
