Hindsights:
During the BLM protests, Trump ran to the WH bunker.
During the Capitol Riot, he didn't.

Clearly, he had no fear of the 2nd.

That could only be because he and his people knew they weren't a threat to him, much less Antifa, as he falsely claimed to McCarthy.

1/
The GOP helped Trump:

- commit crimes vs humanity via concentration camps & family separations

- obstruct justice during & after the Mueller probe

- steal federal resources to:
~ campaign
~ extort Ukraine
~ aid Putin's UKR invasion

- attempt a violent coup

Exile them.
2/
Why don't GOP Senators fear being expelled for:

- helping incite a violent attack on Congress and a coup attempt
- violating their juror oaths by failing to attend, announcing their prejudice, conspiring w/ the defense in trials
- ignoring their oversight duty?

3/
Because they are conspiring to veto any effort to expel any one of them, regardless of the offense they commit.

They're safe as long as they don't get arrested for committing a felony.

Which is why 13 of them should be arrested for seditious conspiracy.

This is denialism.

The Republican Party has been hemorrhaging voters, trying to recruit from the dregs of society: white supremacists, anti-gov't survivalists & anarchists, NeoNazis, gullible Evangelicals, and other 'underserved' groups.

They offered this toxic stew of malcontents mirages like:

- Abortions banned
- Regulations lifted w/out compromising rights/safety/lives
- Deported immigrants
- Oppressed & terrified Blacks/Muslims/Asians/ Native Americans, and
- Bogus 'patriotism'.

The old white demographic is shrinking and being replaced with a younger, racially diverse and progressive electorate.

The GOP has no good policies to attract voters with, so they resort to demonizing opponents, vague bromides & fictions of deeds done.

@scottjshapiro McConnell:

- Fabricated pretexts to acquit Trump, twice
- Fabricated, then moved goalposts from Garland to Barrett
- Quashed serious questions on Kavanaugh's history, perjury, debts, crimes (theft of docs, assaults) & character
- Rationalized a Ponzi scheme tax cut
- ...

1/
@scottjshapiro - Lifted sanctions on a Russian oligarch, endorsing Putin's Ukraine invasion

- Stood by while Trump
~ created 2,000 orphans
~ tortured thousands of immigrants w/ inadequate bedding, heat, clothing, sanitation & healthcare
~ sabotaged US #COVID19 response, killing 400k

2/
@scottjshapiro ~ rigged sweetheart, no-bid contracts for donors, like:
. Whitefish Energy who charged 6 x market prices for PR electrical grid work they couldn't do
. The border wall, at 4 x the price of the prior most expensive wall in the world / mile
. For-profit concentration camps

Can we *please* have a Speaker of the House who can speak?

Pelosi is incredibly inept at being clear, cogent, crisp, and sharing the limelight.

Everything she said could have been communicated in about 6 sentences.

1/
a. McConnell used subterfuge to create an unnecessary delay.

b. He claimed his own subterfuge justified acquittal; it did not. At most, it justified a dissenting Senator's *not participating*. Acquittal *only* means the defendant is not guilty.

2/
c. The 43 GOP Senators objected on the grounds of jurisdiction *before* the trial, fabricating a technicality as an out.

The prosecution showed 2 precedents. 244 scholars mocked the claim.

d. The Senate held a vote upholding jurisdiction.

@ndrew_lawrence Most of POUTS's "accomplishments" did damage to the US or the world, like "withdrew from TPP, Paris Climate Accord, and Iran [nuke deal]."

Others weren't accomplishments, like "fought the opioid epidemic" and "begun (sic) building the wall".

1/
@ndrew_lawrence Still others were lies, like "record jobs creation" (Obama created more jobs in the same time period).

Moving the Embassy to Jerusalem was a strategic blunder. It threw away a bargaining chip for getting Israel to stop stealing Palestinian land.

2/
@ndrew_lawrence The Remain in Mexico program is a violation of US laws and int'l treaties regarding asylum seekers.

83% of the Tax Scam bill benefits went to the wealthy and corporations. The promised revenue offsets to pay for them never appeared. Deficits exploded.

Some of Joe Biden's earliest priorities should include:

- Fully staffing & funding the Federal Elections Comm'n, hobbled by the GOP
- Rebalancing the FCC to enforce new regs on 'news' accuracy, labeling of 'opinion' in media
- Empaneling a comm'n into gov't corruption
1/
- Authorizing sanctions powers for the Office of Gov't Ethics, other toothless watchdog agencies
- Campaign finance and duration reform
- A fast-track for gov't corruption cases in judicial system (SJC governs)
- Expanded funding and staffing for Judiciary

2/
- Restoring Catch-and-Release under supervision for illegal immigrants
- Winding down of CBP and ICE's Guantanomo for-profit detention centers
- Reviewing no-bid, exorbitantly-priced federal contracts issued under Trump, esp. FBI building and detention centers

@marcorubio Mr. Rubio leaves out key elements of the narrative:

a. What he call 'Socialism' isn't. It's just managed capitalism, with nationalized industries where profiteering would otherwise exploit the citizens, e.g. police, fire, highways,..

b. True socialists are a tiny minority.

1/
@marcorubio c. During that Cold War, Republicans used to call everything their opponents did "communism", to associate it with fear of the Russians

d. When Joe McCarthy's "Red Scare" witch hunt jumped the shark, exploding their hoax, they had to tone it down to "socialism".

2/
@marcorubio e. The GOP had already been whining about socialism since FDR's New Deal, because it meant higher taxes for the wealthy. They never stopped.

f. President Truman called them out for it.
