The three red lines Trump could cross:
1. Firing Mueller
2. Firing Rosenstein
3. Blanket pardons of key witnesses
All of these would tamper with Mueller's probe and is unacceptable!

This interview with Dana Bash is a moment to recognize that it is absolutely under-appreciated that Vice President Harris is running a perfect campaign. 🧵1/4

So let me get this straight, the biracial middle class girl is the elitist and the guy who inherited $600 million is the blue collar dude?

[Mark Hamill @MarkHamill]

We can't take a "Blue Wave" for granted! Ignore the polls & campaign like we're 30 points behind. The stakes have never been higher. Tell everyone you know to tell everyone they know to go to https://t.co/nsvzNBXXKg to make sure they're registered. We are NOT going back!!!

[Tim Wise @timjacobwise]

The whole uproar over the "white people tacos" thing with Tim Walz and Kamala Harris is a great example of how lots of white folks just lack the ability to laugh at ourselves. It's not "racist against white people" to say what Walz said, FFS. A 🧵...

@1a Hey all—a constitutional amendment protecting abortion passed in Kansas too, and Missouri is voting in amendment this year. I know the red middle is often less competitive, but it would be nice if your commentators weren’t continuing the “flyover” mentality. 😐

[Keith Edwards @keithedwards]

Paul Pelosi survived an assassination attempt, Trump mocked it.

Biden called Trump to make sure he's ok. That's the difference.

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

Right now you can be a person who tries to help calm things down or a person who tries to make things worse.

We all have agency here.

Make no mistake — Clarence Thomas SOLD his vote on the Chevron doctrine

He was strongly in favor of it, even authoring a decision reinforcing it in 2005

Then he got $4 million in gifts from corporate interests who wanted Chevron gone

And now Thomas did a 180 to kill Chevron

[Lucy Caldwell @lucymcaldwell]

Joe Biden had a bad night, no doubt. But the thing that I am angriest about this morning is that we are handwringing over his bad debate performance and glossing over all of the absolutely insane things Donald Trump said last night.

Trump let slip that Putin told him his “dream” was to absorb Ukraine, thereby further highlighting his cozy relationship with dictators. Trump lied about his record and his own well-known issue positions. Trump promoted endless disinformation about his political rivals. Trump refused to commit to accepting the results of a free and fair election.

Trump is gaslighting America. Do not let Trump off the hook.

“I don’t walk as easily as I used to. I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debate as well as I used to, but I know what I do know. I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. I know how to do this job.”

Exactly the right message.

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

BREAKING:

In a ruling that will have massive implications for the power of federal agencies, the conservative majority on the Supreme Court just overruled the Chevron rule — the 1984 precedent that called for judges to give deference to federal agencies' interpretation of laws they administer. This is a big win for conservatives and business.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn’t change that, and it’s why so much is at stake in November. https://t.co/Tn2TQu5Djo

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

So if I’m understanding what I’m hearing correctly, public schools are both corrupt and totally incapable of proper education, yet somehow perfectly capable of teaching deeply sacred things like the Ten Commandments and the Bible at the same time.

Quite the glaring contradiction

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

I’m not the only one thinking that if justices were not hip-deep in smelly billionaire gifts and gratuities, they might not be rewriting anti-corruption laws to protect public officials receiving smelly gifts and gratuities.

SCOTUS is slow walking Trump's presidential immunity claim, which has delayed his Jan 6 trial.

Judge Cannon has postponed Trump's classified documents trial and didn't set a new start date.

The federal judiciary is effectively acting like a MAGA campaign arm.

"The National Socialist State professes its allegiance to positive Christianity"

-Hitler, who banned abortion, persecuted LGBT ppl, and demanded the Bible be taught in public schools

[Leah Greenberg says NO KINGS ❌👑 @Leahgreenb]

I'm still trying to process the fact that we live in a country where "can emergency rooms just let women die instead of treating them" remains an open question

[Mueller, She Wrote @MuellerSheWrote]

Dusting this one off.

[Claire McCaskill @clairecmc]

Once again for those who didn’t hear it….THE SUPREME COURT DID NOT DECIDE TO ALLOW EMERGENCY CARE FOR PREGNANT WOMEN….THEY JUST DELAYED THE DECISION.
