@lakemyoung Unless you are an Oakland A’s fan…

[Robert B Waldo @RobertBWaldo]

@nypost No she did not suggest that. The NY Post has some core literacy challenges.

Excellent historical perspective about traitors.

[Michael Beschloss @BeschlossDC]

Jefferson Davis was never brought to full justice after the Civil War for leading an insurrection against the United States.
As a result, Davis could and did claim to a reporter in 1873 that Southerners had been “cheated, not conquered.”

A cogent read - it’s imperative to secure our capitol in a way which honors our liberty and national heritage.

[National Review @NRO]

It is crucial to know how the events of January 6 transpired, and to prevent a repeat. But rushing to turn Capitol Hill into a militarized zone indefinitely is the wrong course| The Editors https://t.co/1a4o6okgtU https://t.co/bLvg1AWLMv

Retweet this if you're ready to commit to do everything in your power to ensure that all the Republican seditionists never step foot in office again.

Real life captain America.

@TheAtlantic @IsaacDovere Misleading headline....where is the part about Republicans laughing?

[Robert B Waldo @RobertBWaldo]

Nerves of steel from a patriot.

How is this allowed to happen in the controlled security area of an airport, for God's sake?

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Inciting an insurrection, 18 U.S. Code § 2383, is a felony.

No one is above the law. Not the President, not the President’s attorney, and not any Member of Congress.

The @FBI should investigate anyone who may have violated 18 U.S. Code § 2383, including Members of Congress.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

Maybe it's just me. But if I had the honor of serving as a United States Senator, and the Capitol had been breached, and we were in the midst of a political and constitutional crisis, with major issues of security and governance added on, I'd expect to be at work. Not on recess.

[Robert B Waldo @RobertBWaldo]

I am not sure I am in agreement, but this idea needs due consideration.

[Robert B Waldo @RobertBWaldo]

This sums it up adroitly.

[Mikel Jollett @Mikel_Jollett]

So either Clarence Thomas, Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, Samuel Alito, Brian Kemp, Doug Ducey, the FBI, the CIA, and the entire state Republican Parties of Georgia, Arizona, Michigan, and Pennsylvania are part of a deep state conspiracy

or

Trump lost.

[Robert B Waldo @RobertBWaldo]

@JonathanTurley You are 100% right...Biden should take substantive questions without complaint...but for the sake of intellectual consistency, you should also call out Trump for taking zero questions since the election...

All patriots must be on high alert - the future of our republic is at stake.

[Jeff Timmer @jefftimmer]

Be alarmed America. Serious games are afoot in Michigan. Presumably, they are in other states too.

Biden won MI by more than 150k votes. Make your voices heard and let Speaker @LeeChatfield and @SenMikeShirkey know you want your votes respected.

[Robert B Waldo @RobertBWaldo]

Make these vote suppressers famous!

[Robert B Waldo @RobertBWaldo]

A sane and principled Republican speaks!

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Republicans, now is the time to defend American democracy.

History will remember what you do in this moment of crisis.

Speak up or stay silent. Both are a choice and a statement.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Keep the faith, guys. We’re gonna win this.
