Trump's pressure campaign against state and local officials spanned numerous contested states. The danger this campaign posed to state officials and at state capitols around the nation, was an ominous precursor to the violence we saw on January 6th at the U.S. Capitol.
#Ukraine I am not sure that Europe and the world understand the nature of the genocidal discourse about Ukraine circulating in the Russian information space. Read the following excerpts. -- THREAD (1) 👇
Follow me through this:
1. The Chief Justice has the ability to direct investigations in the Court. He proved this by directing the Alito draft leak investigation.
@TristanSnell So why wasn’t he ever charged? So much evidence of guilt & now even by his own actions. Yet no one of any stature has been charged in any of the high profile investigations. I wonder what @donwinslow would say?
@Jim_Jordan Please post a list of the legislation you have sponsored & passed. Show the people how many years you’ve been in congress & how little you’ve accomplished.
@JasonSCampbell Of course this leads to his complaint that society now makes people believe they’re special for doing nothing, which undermines the work ethic. The participation trophy bit.
@hughhewitt Hugh, if you were, say, a journalist & not strictly a partisan - let’s say someone who’s judicious & fair-minded, someone who hews to facts & logic - maybe what you say here would at least be interesting. Regrettably you’re not & it isnt.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is obviously the greatest international security crisis since 9/11.
And, at this point, it’s got to be said that Joe Biden and his team have handled it masterfully. 1/
@Imposter_Edits In this exhibit we show the authoritarian mindset in full flower, the sense of power & entitlement that informs the personality disorder of many who seek employment in law enforcement. In the next we will show her on her knees in submission to her master.
1. Ron Johnson was a coup co-conspirator.
On Jan. 6, 2021, Johnson and his top aide tried to deliver lists of fake electors to Mike Pence. A Pence aide wouldn't take them. When this was revealed, Johnson lied: "I wasn't involved." Later he admitted it. https://t.co/r6ueHeYKUt
