Big days like this, remember how MSNBC operates: it has dozens of legal experts available. It looks at the various takes that they’re tweeting, decides which of those takes will drive the highest ratings, and cherry picks those specific legal experts to go on the air today.

The appointment of a Special Counsel means the DOJ *will* indict and prosecute Trump. The con artists who push doomsday hysteria for a living are going into panicked overdrive today, because they know how bad this good news is for their business model.

For those asking abt this, it's the right decision. It is very, very unlikely a recount will overcome the current margin. But the recount will happen regardless. If there's a shocker and it ends up he won, the concession is meaningless. No downside.

[Palmer Report @PalmerReport]

Special Counsel will coordinate the various DOJ teams that want to indict Trump on various charges, decide which charges are viable, and decide when and how to bring them. We won’t necessarily agree with every decision he’ll make. But it’ll be a sight to see.

BREAKING NEWS: Alongside @TeamWarnock and @GeorgiaDemocrat, we just WON a lawsuit to protect Saturday early voting in the Georgia Senate runoff election.

We won’t stop fighting Republican efforts to suppress the vote.

@11demo11 Being a Dem is the only thing keeping her relevant. She doesn’t want to be in the GOP - she just wants to have the power to sink whatever she wants.

Electing Warnock is absolutely vital, though. We need to make one of the Manchinema twins irrelevant

Vote peeps!

The loon posted a poll about whether he should buy Twitter, and then based on the results, he did it. He appears to truly be that mentally incompetent. So we should probably go win this new poll he’s posted, just to keep him from having an excuse to act on it:

Kari Lake is still insisting it was a “rigged” election – and it’s getting her nowhere. All we had to do was stop cowering toward those who threatened to yell “rigged” if they lost, and it took all the power out of the threat. Because we stopped cowering, it’s a mere punchline.

BREAKING: Liz Cheney dances on Donald Trump’s political grave, says he “will never be president again” and is “very clearly a very dangerous man” who is “unfit for office.” RT IF YOU THINK THAT LIZ NAILED IT!

[Citizens for Ethics @CREWcrew]

This is really bad. Facebook told its fact-checkers that they need to stop fact-checking Donald Trump if he announces that he is running for president. https://t.co/vKHnAUEOQq

It’s important to win in Georgia. If you can, please support Raphael Warnock

[Palmer Report @PalmerReport]

The thing I really want to say about Trump right now is that Biden is President and the Democrats are delivering and we won the midterms and let’s go Democrats! USA!

[Stephanie Grisham @OMGrisham]

Saying he took “decisive action w COVID & saved lives” frankly pisses me off. I was there, in the meetings. He was worried about his re-election, not the country.

The Senate is closer than ever to *finally* passing a bill to protect same-sex marriage

Honestly, this is the type of legislation that should pass 100-0. It's just Common Sense. Equality always 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

My message to my soon-to-be GOP colleagues??
Pass the damn bill 💯

[Tom Joseph @TomJChicago]

Garland must answer for Giuliani not being charged, or Biden should fire him. Giuliani should not remain free after conspiring to have US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch stalked, threatened & fired. We are rotting as a nation by letting criminals like Giuliani remain free

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: As Donald Trump prepares at Mar-a-Lago to announce his next presidential run tonight, a plane flies over the gaudy complex with a massive banner reading: "You lost again, Donald" — a message sure to enrage the loser ex-president. RT TO THANK THE PLANE PILOT!
