Given how rapidly new developments have come out that have supported Democrats’ case, it’s kind of incredible to think Republicans might allow it to continue for another five days, especially when they have the votes to end it.
Five days ago we didn’t know what was in John Bolton’s book, for example.
Like clockwork, new details on Trump-Zelensky push: nytimes.com/2020/01/31/us/…

Trump now attacking Judge Amy Berman Jackson who is still 9 days away from making a sentencing recommendation.
In 6 days since acquittal, Trump/WH have:

-Removed Vindman
-Removed Sondland
-Vowed payback/retribution
-Attacked judge in Roger Stone case
-Attacked DOJ prosecutors for Stone sentencing proposal
-Attacked FBI Director Wray
-Withdrawn Liu/McCusker nominations
Now Trump going after the 4 prosecutors who quit the Stone case today.

He says Stone "got caught up" in the Mueller probe. (His convictions, though, were for lying to the GOP-controlled House Intel Committees)

NEW: Democrats are struggling to articulate how they'll counter an emboldened, post-impeachment Trump.

w/ @BresPolitico

politico.com/news/2020/02/1…
@BresPolitico On Tuesday, as the Stone controversy roiled Washington, Democrats offered a scattershot array of potential responses: More congressional probes, a hearing with AG Barr, an IG investigation, leaving it to the voters.

politico.com/news/2020/02/1…
@BresPolitico SCHIFF said Trump's intervention in Stones sentencing would be an "abuse of power" — the same thing the House just impeached Trump for — but it remains unclear what the House will do about it. politico.com/news/2020/02/1…

BREAKING: Top STONE prosecutor moves to withdraw from the case. Zelinsky was a top Mueller deputy.
Deleted this tweet because it appears Zelinsky's resignation was from his position as special assistant U.S. attorney in DC but he still retains his post in the U.S. attorney's office in Maryland.
JUST IN: A second STONE prosecutor withdraws from the case. This time, it's Jonathan Kravis.

#NEW from me: What would happen if the Democrats instituted a national primary using ranked-choice voting? I got the data from @YouGovUS and crunched the numbers:

economist.com/graphic-detail…
@YouGovUS We had YouGov ask over 2,000 Democratic voters to rank all the 2020 candidates over the past month. We used those responses to simulate ranked-choice voting in the primary.

How does RCV work, you ask? Just a reminder....
@YouGovUS 0. Count up all the ballots
1. Did someone win a majority of the vote? If yes, they win. If not....
2. Anyone who listed the last-place candidate gets their votes redistributed to their next-ranked option.
3. Re-tally the votes and repeat 1-2 until someone gets a majority.

As John missed Marlena (after her house explosion Christmas season death), we got a peak at what she was actually up to, and it was super confusing. Two nameless children calling her Mommy while she lounged in island-wear? #Days
And there was a Daddy? Huh? #Days
And then we saw "Daddy's" face. I think the eye contact tells the story tbh #Days

White women & Black women bought into gender politics. Hillary was supposed to win for her sex, not her politics or ability. Clearly she had no ability, no charisma, & no empathy for other women other than #Democrats Her big reveal happened when she called
2/ #Republicans “Deplorable.” We loved it. We wore it as a Badge of Honor. She couldn’t overcome her deliberate misuse & destruction of government property, or her deliberate mishandling of to secret documents. She proved incapable at the job. The only decent thing Jim Comey
3/ ever did was downplay her ignorant actions & report her “careless” disregard for agents in the field by putting their lives in danger. THAT raised critical questions about #Hillary ‘s ability, regardless of gender. She was unfit for office, man or woman. And she was ALWAYS

NEW ⁦@CBSNews⁩ POLL: More than 3 in 4 Americans, including majorities of both Republicans and Democrats, think the full #MuellerReport should be released to the public. cbsnews.com/news/mueller-r…
MORE: More (34 percent) feel the report has cleared the president of any illegal activity than explicitly feel it has not (23 percent) — but 36 percent think it's still too soon to say whether it has or hasn't.
But here’s interesting news for Democrats in @cbsnews poll: 2/3rds of Dems think their party in Congress should continue to investigate Russia matter. But most Americans - including 9 in 10 Republicans and most independents - think congressional Democrats should drop the matter.

1. I've said this before, but it bears repeating. The socialized programs that we see in Europe didn't simply emerge as successful programs. These programs were committed to and refined across administrations. This passing of the baton is excruciatingly rare in American politics.
2. Instead, cling to the pendulum swing. A swing from majority ideology to ideology - a continual construction and destruction of progress. Granted, it has rarely been as blatant as we see with the current administration- where destruction of the previous admin is paramount.
3. Any new program is going to have problems. If the response to these problems is to attack not only the creators, but the premise, then the opposing party can rally enough support to take a majority and, effectively, do a 180. We do this over and over.
