Jan. 6 was the tip of the iceberg of a broader and deeper effort to overturn the election. Weaponizing the WH, working to corrupt DOD, DOJ, etc., pressuring state officials, the disinformation campaign--these were key to the attempted usurpation, and key markers for the future.
Here we see the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, being slandered by the Autocratic movements chief propagandist @TuckerCarlson with ad hominem attacks. Milley has served this country in uniform for 42 years. Disgusting.
History is not science, there are no algorithms or immutable laws. There is only memory and evidence. The history we all share and our understanding of it is highly variable and dependent on the story tellers. Where I grew up, everyone I ever met shared a story. (1)
Today is the third day of profoundly stupid media coverage around the demise of the Trump blog. How should we assess Trump in this moment and specifically how do we gauge his relative power and influence? Some have posited that Trump’s loss, social media bans, and inability
The Tulsa Race Massacre is not a thing that happened to Black people in Oklahoma. It happened TO US. I don’t know anyone in Pearl Harbor or the World Trade Center. But we refer to those acts of terror as attacks on America…

Anyone who says that Russians don’t care about Alexei Navalny is just plain wrong. These pictures show the outrage of the Russian people at the slow motion assassination of Alexei. And these are the just the ones brave enough to risk imprisonment to protest
Republican Senator John Kennedy asks @StaceyAbrams to give him a list of provisions in Georgia’s new voter suppression law that she objects to.
It’s a long list.
Give it a listen:
It’s hard to capture the profound sadism and broad ramifications of slowly killing your most powerful and popular opponent in front of the entire world. What Putin is doing to Navalny is a defining moment of our times and people must not look away
This is a plea from Alexei Navalny’s daughter: “allow a doctor to see my dad.” It impossible to imagine the pain Alexei Navalny’s family is feeling right now as he’s days or even moments from death in a hunger strike. We’re all praying with you Dasha.
The public deserves to know what the FBI knows about 2016, including what the FBI & other IC agencies did and DIDN’T do to determine if vote tallies and voter data were changed. Did they have to rely on counties to self report? I believe they mostly did.
For the first time EVER, the US government said Russian agent Konstantin Kilimnik provided Russian intelligence agencies with the internal Trump campaign polling/strategy data he received from Manafort and Gates in 2016. Even Mueller didn't go that far. https://t.co/wGNnHdFxRU
