Meanwhile, what is actually deterring Putin from using nuclear weapons is the same thing that deterred the USSR before him: Western power and his own survival instinct. Without nukes, he still has a path to emerge from this war alive and in power. If he uses them - no. — PolitiTweet.org

A successful defense of democracy by a coalition of fellow-democracies that exposes the western supporters of Putin, right and left, as crooked and stupid - that is the outcome that the pro-Putin talkers fear. It's hand. That's why they invoke "nuclear war" to head it off. — PolitiTweet.org

@thetimes And all this is assuming that 1) Russian nuclear bombs work as advertised? What if he detonates - and the damn thing malfunctions, like everything else in his dysfunctional military? And it assumes 2) that nobody in chain of command gets queasy and mutinies or assassinates him. — PolitiTweet.org

Curious to consider that in 2009, the president of the United States was too young to have voted for or against Carter in 1980- but that all these years later, the serving president was an important Carter ally in the US Senate vs the Ted Kennedy primary challenge that year — PolitiTweet.org

The particulars of my 2003 piece have passed out of date. https://t.co/W3iTVceSqE But its core idea holds: if your ideal is an homogeneous, authoritarian, deferential society - of course you're going to turn against the United States, flag pin or no. — PolitiTweet.org

The US border is being overwhelmed for two main reasons: flaws in the US asylum system and the ultra-hot US job market, literally two openings for every one available US worker. The DeSantis airlift assumes the border problem is a plot by disloyal elites https://t.co/PbixWC0sDY — PolitiTweet.org
