You might have thought the problem with the latest GOP law prof screed was the election denial (and it was) but he also got the democracy part of it entirely wrong. My breakdown at Good Politics/Bad Politics. https://t.co/FPVj1QG6AW

The politics of the Trump convictions are complicated—as shown by how Republicans in close elections are (or aren’t) talking about it. My latest at the newsletter:

New at Good Politics/Bad Politics...One more time: "Democracy" and "Republic" are best treated and used as synonyms. And not just because of the long bad history of the "it's a republic, not a democracy" complaint. https://t.co/nFscIZzlY7

So far, all the winners of GOP primaries for open solid-red House seats have been conservative, Trump-supporting white men. But they’re not all the same—I introduce you to the 12 newest (presumptive) members of Congress:

This one's a bit overstuffed, I know, but Congress folks: Tell me where I'm wrong! https://t.co/l0VZftLYHr

Today at Good Politics/Bad Politics: Why Dems are willing to save Johnson; what they should ask for going forward; how it's different than the McCarthy situation; what the radicals are avoiding; and why Johnson wants us to think he's a moron. https://t.co/l0VZftLYHr

Am I whining about my local elections this Saturday because they interfere with my Kentucky Derby day activities or because they're bad for democracy? Long-time readers will suspect: Both! New at Good Politics/Bad Politics https://t.co/5WeVQTwVg5

I wrote about strategic retirement and Sotomayor this morning. Enjoy: https://t.co/xYlTVeiNNM...

As GOP donors big and small rally ‘round their persecuted leader, Senate candidates can’t get their attention or dollars. My new one at the newsletter (please subscribe!):

Among other things, the Mayorkas impeachment is an assault by the House...on the Senate. Senators should treat it that way. My new one at Good Politics/Bad Politics. And please consider subscribing! https://t.co/hqmSKDAedS

New at Good Politics/Bad Politics (subscribe!): What Trump is really promising on abortion. And how the extremism is already built in for him on this and other policy questions, regardless of what he says. https://t.co/CiBPHNge5n...

All sorts of small losses as this place implodes, adding up to a fairly big loss overall.

The thing is: Twitter is the only place I know of that has @KevinRothrock 's Anglophone Russia list. Does it exist on any other platform? Do the people on it post on any other platform?

I'm not saying I blame all of you who were like "Hey as long as he doesn't notice tweetdeck we'll be fine" but I'm not saying I'm not blaming you, either.

[Jonathan Bernstein @jbview]

@j_b_trey Everyone already knows more than enough about Trump's character and lack of fitness for office. This isn't top-100 stuff with regard to either.

[Jonathan Bernstein @jbview]

Really don't see why we should care about this. At best it's a mildly fun gotcha I suppose.

[Andrew Kaczynski @KFILE]

We played several clips tonight on @OutFrontCNN of Trump arguing in 2016 a president couldn't govern with a felony indictment for mishandling classified information.
