"People discuss the impeachment trial as a matter of law, but it's really a matter of power. It's a loyalty test for Republicans. It's a test of whether they'll openly declare fealty to a criminal syndicate." -- @gaslitnation

"There is no presentation of evidence that will sway the GOP. We know this because Trump has openly committed and confessed to crimes. He gets out of crimes by declaring them not to be crimes, not by actually proving his innocence." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/voldemor…
"Americans have lost a lot due to officials' unwarranted faith in rotting institutions: savior syndrome, as they waited for Mueller; and normalcy bias, as they assumed that if the situation were really so dangerous, someone would stop it." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/voldemor…
"Legal analysts need to look at how trials work in authoritarian states, because that's a better analogue than any past US impeachment. This trial is abuse as spectacle, a power struggle that has little to do with the law on paper." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/voldemor…
