Most Americans - including educated, informed Americans; including people working in politics and the media - still don’t understand how close we are to fully losing our democracy in the next year or two.
Let’s be 100% clear. If Republicans win control of the House, Senate and White House two years from now, they will pass a national abortion ban. And no matter where you live, no matter how pro-choice your state is, women and doctors will be locked up for practicing health care.
ONE MORE TIME -- THE CHIEF OF STAFF TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WHO WAS TRYING TO STAY IN POWER ILLEGALLY-PLOTTED WITH THE WIFE OF A SUPREME COURT JUSTICE WHO COULD’VE ENDED UP RULING ON THE TRANSITION OF POWER -
I think we must appreciate that @POTUS and @SecBlinken have unified the West and many others in support of Ukraine against Putin's aggression in quite an extraordinary manner. Well done!
I’m still not convinced people remember that the first impeachment was about Trump withholding javelins and other weapons from President Zelensky unless he did a phony investigation into President Biden’s son, and that every Republican except for Mitt voted to exonerate Trump .
I don’t think everyone remembers that Zelensky was the leader on the other end of the “I want you to do me a favor though” phone call. I sense the first impeachment sounded kinda obscure to some people. But withholding lethal aid was both an actual crime and a moral crime.
