1. If @SenateGOP fail to convict Donald Trump they will make it all but certain Trump spends his days in federal or state prison. Democrats need to focus on each of the 2022 cycle GOP. Paint them as seditious monsters if they excuse an overthrow. @TheDemocrats should target ads
3. @lisamurkowski should switch from GOP to Independent and caucus with the Democrats. Otherwise, the 2022 Tsunami may reach her too.

And the following 2022 cycle members were the ones who went to Moscow for July 4th. The @ODNIgov should declassify intercepts to expose
4. what they did there. Here they are. Why doesn't the media ask them why they went? Ask if it was because they took Kremlin money in the 2016 race with Trump like he did.

1. McConnell and his masters in the #Koch funding ecosystem have two problems: Being rid of Trump and being rid of the lunatic fringe. If they're smart, they will take the hit from the extreme fringe in their party and in one act rid themselves of both problems.
2. We just witnessed the @HouseGOP vote secretly to support @RepLizCheney. Less than 30% supported her removal. @GOPLeader's support for the lunatic fringe makes him at best a lame duck and more likely teed up for removal. But Trump still hovers over the caucus like a bad dream.
3. Trump's Impeachment trial defended by two of the fringe is likely to be a disaster for the GOP. It will simply prove that Trump attempted a violent overthrow of our Republic. It will reinforce the calls to charge complicit GOP members. The 2022 Cycle @SenateGOP will have to

1. The tone deafness of the @SenateGOP @USChamber caucus is shocking. The 2022 cycle will try to be reelected in the face of overwhelming support for @JoeBiden's plan to save America. Democrats & Independents will have a running start & these @SenateGOP will be playing catchup.
2. But this 2022 cycle has another anchor weighing them down. They ran with Donald Trump in 2016. They were exposed to the Russian interference and I believe Kremlin money too. It was injected into the Koch blood stream after the Trump Tower meeting on June 9, 2016.

1. Attempts to reverse terrorist radicalization often approach the task by trying to change the radical belief system. But folks like Jihadists aren't likely to just change their views. But you can remove one of the key factors leading to radicalization: economic misery. So, you
2. focus on that and try to slowly replace the radical belief system with at least an understanding that it is possible to address the economic motivations and lessen the rage that perceived or real injustice inflames. American radicals who backed Trump are varied but many are
3. working class whites, who were not provided a quality education starting in pre-school or day care. They are not prepared to thrive in our modern economy, and they are afraid. Trump lied to them, making them think he could fix their lives. He fed them instead with a

1. @RepJerryNadler @SenatorDurbin @StateDept Why not simply list the Nazi party as a FTO engaged in "international terrorism"? IMO it passes 18 USC 2331(1) statutory test:
2. Once listed the US affiliated members would be immediately subject to the full toolkit available under #FISA that defines "foreign power" to include "a group engaged in international terrorism" or activities in preparation therefor" 50 USC § 1801(a)(4).
3. A member of a Nazi party affiliate would then be an "agent of a foreign power" pursuant to 50 USC § 1801(b)(1)(C). That would open these international terrorists to the full panoply of FISA tools to be able to uncover their identities and make sure they

1. If the @SenateGOP think that simply turning blind eyes to Trump's high crimes will make them go away they're likely to be disappointed. First, if they fail to convict & ban Trump from future political office, IMO it's likely Trump & members are indicted soon after the verdict.
2. The members who are most likely to be charged with Trump are @HawleyMO and @SenTedCruz. I expect that the @FBIWFO already has their electronic communications with Trump and his conspirators related to the attack on the Capitol.

Second, members who voted to overthrow election
2. are also likely targets of the grand jury including @SenHydeSmith @ScottforFlorida @CynthiaMLummis @RogerMarshallMD @TTuberville @SenJohnKennedy.

Third, a group of at-risk GOP in 2016 cycle are likely to be exposed for their receipt of Kremlin money in that cycle combined

1. I think it was 1982 when I sold the @NFL on staying in Honolulu for the #ProBowl. I had lunch with the three hall of fame inductees who made up the committee tasked with the decision. I pitched that they can take their families anywhere on the mainland but Waikiki was special.
2. Plus unspoken was the fact that for the most part, Hawaii is free from the kind of endemic racism that was common in 1982. Mixed ethnicity couples were common in Hawaii. Not so much on the Mainland back then. For single players it was a wonderland.
3. Plus winter golf. Perfect summer weather in February and golf courses galore. And the way they did it with the winners getting something like $30k and the losers $15k was just enough incentive to have decent game after the Superbowl. They said the extra $15 helped pay their
