End the War on Drugs. Legalize and Regulate.

[Richard W. Painter @RWPUSA]

Senate Republicans apparently threatened to use the filibuster to stop all other senate business -- including COVID19 relief for desperate American families -- if this trial were to continue and hear witnesses. Never before has the GOP stooped so low to defend Donald Trump.

[LISA CURRY @lisa_curry]

Next time I’m called for jury duty, I’m going to tell the judge I’ve already made up my mind before the trial. See how that goes.

[Lawrence O'Donnell @Lawrence]

The next time Trump will hear the words NOT GUILTY will be when he enters his plea in Fulton County, Georgia.

The next time he'll hear the word GUILTY is when the jury's verdict is announced.

[Ari Berman @AriBerman]

Shocking stat: 57 senators who voted to convict Trump represent 76.7 MILLION more Americans than 43 senators who voted to acquit

[Ari Berman @AriBerman]

Mitch McConnell refused to hold impeachment trial while Trump was in office & now says he’ll acquit because trial is unconstitutional since Trump no longer in office. Absolutely despicable

[raechel frick @RaechelMFrick]

@LeaderMcConnell If a doctor kills a patient by criminal negligence and then quickly quits his job, is he still liable? Or nah, cause he’s not a doctor anymore and we shouldn’t be holding him to his Hippocratic oath? #SenateRepublicans

January 6’th was the one of most horrific days in modern American history, and today is the one of the saddest.

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

What a fabulous closing argument by @RepJoeNeguse.

[Donna Brazile @donnabrazile]

Trump is guilty!

[Donna Brazile @donnabrazile]

Thank you #HouseManagers for providing a thoughtful, persuasive and sound argument on the need to #ImpeachTrump for inspiring the insurrection against the Member of Congress and the former Vice President of the United States. The former President must be held accountable.

[raechel frick @RaechelMFrick]

The House impeachment managers are all absolutely incredible. However, @RepRaskin’s passion for, and @RepJoeNeguse @JoeNeguse’s love of America are the things that we should all be inspired by today. Regardless of the foreseen outcome, I hope these are the things we remember.

[raechel frick @RaechelMFrick]

Why wouldn’t he have known these things in real time?
We did, and he was the president with access to classified intel and, likely, access to security cameras at the capitol.

[Adam Parkhomenko @AdamParkhomenko]

So is law school just really, really easy?

[Jonathan Capehart @CapehartJ]

Did SNL put this together?

[Eric Garland @ericgarland]

"They didn't actually murder Pence, Pelosi, and Grassley and overthrow democracy, ergo nothing bad happened! Sort of like how Bill Cosby's victims survived, so chill out!" -guy with really bad arguments

[raechel frick @RaechelMFrick]

Boy, I sure am glad we didn’t have to sit through a full 16 hours of the word ‘fight’.

[raechel frick @RaechelMFrick]

How were the “protesters” supposed to convince anyone to change their minds without GETTING INSIDE the capitol building?

[Donna Brazile @donnabrazile]

[raechel frick @RaechelMFrick]

As would would be the fair and legal remedy in any other courtroom with inattentive jurors.

[mary french @ukgirlinsf]

@RaechelMFrick @CNN @CNNPolitics That would be wonderful. Then @GOP members should be removed, their phones & other mobile devices confiscated, & they should not be allowed to vote! #SecondImpeachmentTrial

@CNN @CNNPolitics Let’s get a split screen showing the members who are ignoring the proceedings.
