EVERYONE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT THIS: Conflict of interest doesn’t even begin to cover it. Chad Bianco really seized over 650,000 ballots based on conspiracy theories that don’t even hold up to basic scrutiny. No credible fraud. No real discrepancy. 🧵

Hillary Clinton "This is hard work. You don't just show up in Islamabad, talk for a bunch of hours, and go away. This is hard, disciplined effort that has to go into diplomacy to reach any results. And I don't see this admin either wanting to do it or, frankly, being capable of doing"

Kamala Harris: it is not just about the individual, it is about the apparatus, if you will -- I would refer to talk about the cronies who are allowing this to happen. Members of Congress. I'm going to use the F word, who are feckless. It is an appropriate F word

MacFarlane: He already raised all these expectations among his most ardent supporters that by this time he would have arrested and jailed all those people who rigged the 2020 election, which wasn't rigged, or the people who staged January 6th, which wasn't staged.

Remember this! Speaker Mike Johnson sent everyone home and disappeared. He knew what was coming: a war crime. Hakeem Jeffries is speaking truth to power while the Speaker hides. A vote on the War Powers Resolution is overdue.

Some thoughts about the President of the United States speaking about ending a civilization. The president speaks genocide. Anyone who has been involved in that conversation or associated actions would be complicit. And so we too must speak. Not only about crimes, but about their legal punishment.

Phang: I think they understand that they gave him such wide berth that he has now said, “Thank you for the inch—I’m going to take 100 miles.” And now they’re trying to reel him back in, as we’ve seen through a series of decisions that have come out of SCOTUS. But they haven’t done us any favors.
