Billy Barr was *obviously* lying to protect Donny Trump from accountability for his crimes against US, but it would have been nothing if Mainstream Media did not buy all of his lies & sell it for Barr to all of US.
I will never forget or forgive how helpful the Mainstream Media was to candidate Trump and obsequious they were to President Trump, made even worse by how proud they are at the great work they think they did for US. They continue to be part of the problem.
It was too easy for the Mainstream Media to normalize the Trump Regime's corruption, cruelty, incompetence, authoritarianism, disloyalty to US.

*Thrilled* that after long career using his incredible skills *dude is amazing at marketing politics* @FrankLuntz trying to do something good, rather than evil. But he should provide more accountability for what he did to US, really work to make it better, before we embrace him.
.@FrankLuntz (1) key behind @newtgingrich "Contract with America" which really ushered him era of Republicans having no policy other than tax cuts for rich & empty slogans (2) mastermind behind denying science to fight R&D to combat climate change ...
.@FrankLuntz (3) convinced Republicans to just fight anything Obama did, during grave recession, reasoning slow recovery is good for Republicans (4) branded ObamaCare as government takeover of healthcare, denying millions desperately needed Medicaid expansion

@Mike_Pence When Donny Trump sent a violent mob to try to assassinate you (which fortunately failed in their mission), in order to block the transfer of power to duly the Democratic president, effectively ending the republic, was that "cancel culture"?
Just kidding, I already know that "cancel culture" is when Republicans institute targeting tax hikes on companies that say things they don't like. Right?
Sorry, I think I got it now: "cancel culture" is when Republicans try to defund entire schools because a teacher uses a curriculum that asserts that slavery was bad and still has repercussions?

I really hope that was the first of a fleet of planes.
If India is admitting this many deaths per day, hard to fathom how bad it is really is there.
Some of my right-wing followers are confused why we would spend money to give India relief: it is called soft-power. For relatively little money, we gain the respect, thanks, and preferred trade status of massive & growing country. It is way more cost-effective than more bombers.

Schools were closed under Republican Trump and then opened under Democrat Biden. Also (even though it will have massive long-lasting effects) voters will not be thinking about this by the next election.
Republicans spent 4 years reveling in suffering & death of Democrats, but I totally believe their concern about bipartisanship is sincere.
Lots of complaining about Democratic policy in general terms nothing on Republican policy. Makes sense because, when explained, Democratic policy is super popular and, of course, Republicans don't have any policy to lay out to US.

Cable news is so banal: blows my mind that so many watch these talking heads hours per day #BidenAddress
I hope @JoeBiden wears the radiators tonight #BidenAddress #SunglassesAtNight

Somehow half of my Twitter feed is debating if Democrats have become "too woke" & other half is noting how Republicans just make stuff up about Democrats: if these two groups talk to each other they would realize Republicans have done amazing job lying about Democratic priorities
Democratic priorities: expand healthcare, secure voting rights, clean infrastructure, build robust social saftey net for American families, pay with debt & taxing the rich. All super popular & necessary as we address health & economic fallout from COVID-19.
Mainstream Media & Republicans try to paint Democrats as prioritizing identity politics, but reality is that devoid of meaningful policy, it is the Republicans who are obsessed with identity politics: white identity politics.
