This "investigate the investigators" is one of the scariest things I've seen in my 20 years in politics.

A hostile power attacked our democracy to game an election. A fair and thorough investigation was launched and concluded.

Now a corrupt AG is conducting a REAL witch hunt.
Much more on this chilling development here:
This is how to look at it:

WHO SAID THIS?

"Time after time, the President came to a fork in the road. Time after time, he had the opportunity to choose the noble and honorable path. Time after time, he chose the path of lies and lawlessness."
WHO SAID THIS?

“[The President] doesn’t have to say, ‘Go lie for me,’ to be a crime. You don’t have to say, ‘Let’s obstruct justice’ for it to be a crime. You judge people on their conduct, not magic phrases.”
WHO SAID THIS?

"The true tragedy in this case is the collapse of the President's moral authority ... there is the issue of the abuse of power and authority. This White House has perfected the art of stonewalling around the truth."

THREAD: WHY WE'RE IN DEEP TROUBLE

...AND WHAT WE CAN DO.

The corporate media and Democratic Party establishment are simply not equipped to handle flagrant autocracy.

Institutions that depend on a system of rules & norms are confounded by the upending of the status quo.
THREAD (cont.)

Take this mainstream media headline:

The president is wielding power in ways not seen in the United States in generations — if ever.

And ask yourself why the word is "wielding" not "abusing."



(h/t @djrothkopf)
THREAD (cont.)

The fight over #impeachment between progressive activists/politicians and the Dem leadership exemplifies the problem.

Most senior Dem officials who have been in office for over a decade have only one playbook: Try to appear "bipartisan" to appease big media.

Winning Is Not Enough | by Paul Glastris

Democrats are focused on taking back power—but our democracy depends on them keeping it. To do that, they have to start thinking differently.

#democracy #Democrats #progressives #liberals #DemsWork4USA
washingtonmonthly.com/magazine/july-…
To save our democracy, Democrats need to win big. They not only have to beat Donald Trump in 2020, but also have to achieve majorities in the House and Senate that are big and stable enough to survive the 2022 midterms.
Doing that will require winning back states and districts that they lost in 2014 and 2016, taking others that have long been in GOP hands, and governing in a way that keeps those states and districts from turning red again.
