“The idea that a former president might be indicted for a crime has, through repetition, gone from an unthinkable breach of long-settled norms to something so expected that the actual event may feel like an anticlimax.” But it will in truth be historic. https://t.co/a3TcgilrXC — PolitiTweet.org

If DA Willis doesn’t indict Trump this month, she’ll look like she’s caving to the threat of MAGA legislators to enact a statute that would violate the Georgia Constitution’s separation of powers, a statute Governor Kemp might be cowardly enough to sign. https://t.co/011ufWB73d — PolitiTweet.org

“MAGA ideology runs far deeper than the most outlandish . . conspiracy theories exposed by the Dominion case. . For those in the grip of MAGA ideology, all empirical evidence is filtered through a distorted frame” that views only MAGAs as genuine citizens https://t.co/LFLYXKLhD3 — PolitiTweet.org

I’m no fan of Senator Mitch McConnell, but Jenna Ellis is beneath contempt to mock McConnell for his unfortunate accident and hospitalization. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m not as cynical as this piece, but I agree that “as long as there exists an audience which prefers to live in a fantasy world, even if it means being lied to, there will be someone to serve it [as] a consequence-free path to riches.” https://t.co/vzwBZzsPEV — PolitiTweet.org

The 11th Circuit just upheld Florida’s ban on sale of firearms to anyone under 21. The opinion by Judge Robin Rosenbaum is perfectly crafted to survive even Justice Thomas’s narrow historical test. Brava! https://t.co/OymQMXppxH — PolitiTweet.org

“For decades, conservative media outlets have expressly sought to build and capture an audience that would accept only their version of events, and would be cordoned off to place them beyond the reach of mainstream news sources entirely.” https://t.co/cOwjCIY0uR. — PolitiTweet.org

“The recent urgency in France to enshrine abortion as a constitutional right was linked to the developments in the United States. What happened in the U.S. was definitely a shock to people in France. It was really a turning point.” https://t.co/sz2MAwBcAI — PolitiTweet.org

Ethics probe? How about charging the dude with stealing federal property and making illegal political contributions to MAGA campaigns with it? Or does Kevin think holding the gavel as Speaker means he owns the whole damn place and is above the law? https://t.co/a8S7bRX3xd — PolitiTweet.org
