Come on, @foxnews. This is factually incorrect clickbait. Gamble would have no effect on Manafort either way:
“Supreme Court ruling deals potential blow to Paul Manafort as he battles state charges” | Fox News foxnews.com/politics/supre…
This is false: “Had the court ruled the other way in Monday's case, Gamble v. United States, and eliminated the dual sovereignty doctrine, a pardon from President Trump would have left Manafort free and clear.” No, there are totally separate offenses in NY, CA, and IL.
Come on, Bloomberg. This is also wrong: news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/ma…

After 1 hour, my sense of overall performance.
@ewarren ⬆️🔥
@JulianCastro ⬆️ (tough on Beto)
@amyklobuchar ⬆️ (Good immigration)
@RepBetoORourke ⬇️ (awkward)
@CoryBooker ⬇️ (bad on Iran answer)
@TulsiGabbard 🤡
Winners: @ewarren, @JulianCastro, @JayInslee, @amyklobuchar
Losers: @CoryBooker @RepBetoORourke. Both were really, really bad.
Come back in 2028: @TimRyan
Drop out & stay out: @BilldeBlasio @JohnDelaney
Please go back to Russia: @TulsiGabbard
This was terrible from @CoryBooker:

I think of these debates as 3 separate tiers:
1) Who should be the presidential nominee in 2020?
2) Who might be a good VP 2020 or a nominee in 2028 etc?
3) How do we find a Hawaii Democrat to primary @TulsiGabbard in 2020?
Good for @chucktodd for pressing Gabbard on her history of opposing LGBTQ rights, but he erred in emphasizing her apology to highlight her problem. Focus on what she had to apologize for and how recently she was anti-gay.
I’m getting the feeling that Tulsi Gabbard is 2020’s version of Sanjaya from American Idol.
She’ll stick around as trolls’ bad joke on a desperately broken voting technology.
And they both palled around with sociopath sadists: Putin and Simon Cowell.

I thought “Never again” meant “Never again to anyone.”
Not “We will make damn sure the Holocaust is Never Again relevant to anyone anywhere - despite actual concentration camps in 2019.”
I was hoping to never again have to make this point, but here we go again.
Thank you @AOC.
Why do we have a @HolocaustMuseum museum if its directors:
1) work to make sure it is not relevant as an eternal lesson to humanity about inhumanity?
2) don’t understand that examples of concentration camps are not limited to Nazi death camps?
3) are not good at history?
Et tu, @AJCongress?
@AOC > AJC.
AJC is the one cheapening the Holocaust by making in jealously proprietary, narrowly provincial, and ahistorically irrelevant.
Shanda, AJC. Shame on you.

Alan Dershowitz: Why is Paul Manafort off to Rikers? Prepare to be shocked (and outraged) fxn.ws/2Moeawb #FoxNews
Whatever the reason for the transfer, it seems like the selective application of the law for partisan purposes.
The tactic of squeezing a potential witness by making his imprisonment unbearably harsh is generally reserved for mafioso, terrorists and other violent criminals who may have evidence against their bosses.

Let’s talk Zamfara!
The Supreme Court in a landmark judgement today affirmed INEC’s position that the APC didn’t conduct any primaries in Zamfara and hence, had no candidates.When I drew attention to the firmness of INEC in deciding to stand for truth, some who just want to talk
For the sakes of it were having a wankfest on the TL talking gibberish. Some of us know too much to come here joining issues with anyone but on the elections, at the right time , I will speak, and when I do, trust me, it will break the internet. But I digress! Let me remind us
about Zamfara and how we got here for those who pretend that this was a simple and straightforward matter. NO! It wasn’t. This is the culmination of one man standing for justice and much as I hate to say it, President Buhari siding with truth.

Values, believing, independent thinking, teamwork
@Bruno_Brunelli
India (Bhārat), aka Republic of India (Bhārat Gaṇarājya) constitutes a mosaic of paradoxes and contradictions starting with the existence of gigantic socio-economic disparities which are in sharp contrast with the spectacular technological development in most productive sectors.
Such contradictions reflect significant measurement discrepancies which, in India's case, could be on the order of hundreds of millions of people.
Furthermore, there is the problem of Islamic terrorists, who are trained abroad and find easy fuel in the contradictions within it.
Finally, there’s agriculture which, by some estimates, accounts for 90% of India’s water consumption. Farmers meet irrigation demands by indiscriminately extracting groundwater, which some say accounts for a quarter of the world’s groundwater usage.

Supreme Court: judges can't rule from beyond the grave

The timing of this is interesting

Here's another very important Supreme Court ruling: SCOTUS has stripped the World Bank of its legal immunity, opening the door for lawsuits

Some people have shown interest once again in Benghazi, to me this tragedy is still very important. I'm not talking about Susan Rice hitting the Sunday Morning circuit lying about the attack, however it is important but all the things leading up to Benghazi, & why they were there
On July 25, 2012 Taliban fighters in Kunar province Afghanistan successfully targeted a US Army CH-47 helicopter with a new generation Stinger missile. The terrorists didn't properly arm the missile, so it didn't explode, it only downed the chopper. #Benghazi
The next day, an EOD team arrived to pick through the wreckage and found unexploded pieces of a missile casing that could only belong to a new generation Stinger missile. Lodged in the right nacelle, they found one fragment that contained an entire serial number.
