@robdamnit @RobertGLeeUK Just logged in to Twitter after months away (too much doom scrolling). Nice to see this in my notifications.

The official White House position is now:

The president cannot be indicted of any crime AND the president is innocent since he has not been indicted of any crime

[Ron Perlman @perlmutations]

Constitutional Crisis. We are in one. Squarely in. We have a man who conspired with a foreign sworn enemy to illegally be installed into the highest office in the land. This is no longer theory. This is fact. And yet we sit by and are influenced by his rule.

He is ILLEGITIMATE!

[Preet Bharara @PreetBharara]

Practice note: Trump has no effective way to shut down any investigation being conducted by SDNY. That office is more insulated, enduring and “sovereign” than the Special Counsel’s Office. You can fire Mueller. You can fire the US Attorney. You can’t fire the SDNY.

In Georgia's Randolph County, which is 60% black, officials are planning to close 7 of the 9 polling locations, making it unfeasible for many black residents to vote. Their excuse is that the sites are not ADA compliant—Does closing them make them ADA compliant? NO! I call foul!

[James Comey @Comey]

Truth exists and truth matters. Truth has always been the touchstone of our country’s justice system and political life. People who lie are held accountable. If we are untethered to truth, our justice system cannot function and a society based on the rule of law dissolves.

Reminder: Orrin Hatch once said there was "no question” Merrick Garland could be confirmed to the Supreme Court & that Obama "could easily name Merrick Garland, who is a fine man."
Yet when Obama did just that, Hatch joined GOP's nearly year-long blockade of Garland's nomination.

[Emily C. Singer @CahnEmily]

This is rich coming from a guy who helped make sure Garland never got a hearing. Save the sanctimony.

[Tea Pain @TeaPainUSA]

Because your party investigated Hillary for 6 years and found nothin', then Bob Mueller investigated Manafort for a couple of months and found 30 million dollars of money launderin' and tax fraud.

That help, little feller?

Break-up Sinclair’s stranglehold on local news. We must dismantle the autocratic propaganda machine or it will finish the job it started & take control away from The People. https://t.co/wBLgCU7rQk

@realDonaldTrump Dear mister Trump. You see this beautiful building? It’s the International Court of Justice in Our residency The Hague, the Netherlands. It’s waiting for you. It might take a while. But it’s waiting …

Worldwide, there are 13 million displaced Syrians in need of humanitarian assistance. In the first 3 months of this year, the US had accepted 11 - or 0.00000085% - of them. On #WorldRefugeeDay we commit to do better. #RefugeesWelcome

I was activated and deployed to the gulf for Deepwater Horizon. We killed ourselves out there, up to our armpits in toxic chemicals, to make sure this was fixed and never happened again.

All undone in an instant, for no other reason than the whim of a rich, entitled monster. https://t.co/jGUgK5eDfF

Sessions and Sarah Sanders are evangelical Christians. Probably spent a great deal of their lives sitting in church. Begs the question: What the fuck is taught in white evangelical churches? Seems like the doctrine is more about white supremacy than being Christlike.

Reps. Connolly and Quigley respond to Ryan's comment that he hasn't "paid that close attention" to Pruitt allegations.

“These ethical lapses are of serious concern, and we hope that as Speaker of the House you will pay closer attention, and maybe even provide basic oversight."
