I admire Tiger Woods. He earned his Medal & I wish him well.

If you listen to Trump on this clip, you can hear how much of a tragedy he thinks the crash is. The left are going to attack him for "ignoring" the tragedies of ordinary Americans. He walked right into this.
I can see why Trump would want to go on FOX and say this, but I think it's yet another bad decision after many months of them. Tiger has a PR battle on his hands already from this crash. Trump was thinking of himself, not Tiger.
Pence is reportedly planning to lay low for 6 months, and I think that is wise. It would also be wise for Trump to at least partially do the same.

I want the conservative movement to rebuild as quickly as possible.

Trump's actions & omissions have harmed our chances.
I suspect that most of the Senators & Congressmen & women who now stand by Trump are doing that out of fear.

The folk he called "the Liz Cheneys of the world" are not willing to go along with that.

Trump allies are trying to weave a narrative in the same way the left does.

(1) Thread: Liz Cheney is telling the truth and she speaks for many of us.

Here's a speech she gave today.

(2) On 1/6 Trump falsely accused Pence of lacking courage.

In reality he showed immense courage, and so did every LEO who put him or herself in harm's way, particularly Officer Eugene Goodman who acted as a decoy to lure part of the mob away from the Senate chamber.
(3) I spent 4 years & 4 months supporting, defending & boosting the Trump campaign, presidency, & agenda.

After 11/3/20 my trust in the presidency eroded week by week. In mid and late December I went on record 4 times on Twitter warning folk to avoid the 1/6 rally entirely. Image

(1) Thread: Tiger Woods car crash on 2/23/2021

It's 4.32pm local time in Los Angeles. We're getting more information all the time, such as:

(2) The LA Times reports from an anon source that "His injuries included a shattered ankle and two leg fractures, one of which was compound."

IMO it wouldn't be impossible for Tiger to resume his golfing career later on; he came back from worse injuries already. I'd retire but:
(3) We all know Tiger is the kind of person who will make that decision differently to most people. Gonna be several months before he recovers, at a minimum.

Sheriff reported he was wearing a seatbelt and airbags deployed. Was driving a Hyundai Genesis GV80 SUV.

(1) Why do you believe fake news as long as it comes from your political side?

Someone sent me this opinion piece to support their assertions about 1/6.

In case you don't know, I've written extensively about political violence in the US since 2017.

(2) Let's look at the assertions made just in the introductory paragraphs.

The DOJ isn't arresting "anyone involved with the Capitol breach."

They are investigating & arresting those with court-ready evidence of law breaking. And NOT just for breaching the building.
(3) I've read many of the charging documents available at this point.

Bc I've been reporting on this type of crime for 4 years, I know the documents only need to include enough evidence for the preliminary stages. Don't make the mistake of thinking you've seen all the charges.

(1) Love this. Been thinking lately that at times like this our forbears would say to each other "don't you know there's a war on?"

The pandemic + flow on effects make life extra hard for most people. For at least 2 years. Pace yourself.

Choose perspective, empathy & wisdom.
(2) I think almost everyone, if they're honest, will agree that the politicization of the pandemic is a bad thing.

I get few RTs these days because I started openly questioning the actions & omissions of former President Trump in Nov-Dec 2020.

And I don't support the left.
(3) If I'm proud of anything, it's my willingness to make political "conscience" decisions regardless of the fallout.

I used to think everyone was willing to do this at some point. Disheartened to learn yet again that most prefer to stay in their tribe.

Oh well.

(1) I've been reading about some of those already charged from 1/6. I noticed this one because his photo was so... alarming.

In his case there's a range of comments and video to draw on. Including a softball interview from a local conservative media org...
(2) There's this video clip... what a douche. This is why most people don't want to run for office locally. You have to deal with this kind of person.

(3) One of the documents filed in court so far. Compare and contrast with the narrative he wants you to believe (next tweet).

(1) We all knew there weren't the votes to convict Trump this month. That aside, the events reveal a lot of things about those who were involved.

I've learned how to spot abusive behavior: domestically & politically. This guy is a shocker.

(2) I watched his 7 minute interview with CBS after the trial. I was stunned by the amount of it that exposed van der Veen's attitude to his work.

Trump defenders lauded his performance, saying he "destroyed" the interviewer.

No. It was the opposite.

(3) Van der Veen comes across as a spoilt child. He doesn't need to; he would be far more effective in his work if behaved at least a little bit professionally.

He loses his cool and plays the victim.

Observing "playing the victim" is a very good way to spot an abuser.
