Bob Ney: F. Lee Bailey started with the very famous case of Sam Sheppard. He also did the Patty Hearst case & OJ Simpson. F. Lee Bailey passed away today. @bobney
Bob Ney: I served in Congress with Mike Pence. He's sort of a subdued chill factor. He won't see eye-to-eye with Trump after Trump told followers to go to the Capitol & get Pence. @bobney
Bob Ney: Everyone knew Pence couldn't change things.
Rick: Trump actually believed he's going to be reinstalled in August. Is there a reinstallation clause in our Constitution, or an "oops" button?
Bob: There are people out there who actually believe this will happen. @bobney
Bob Ney: Sidney Powell said Trump could be reinstated.
Rick: There ought to be an investigation into her law degree.
Bob: Powell & others like her will go make money off some think tank. There's always some crazy group out there who will hire them. @bobney
Bob Ney: Netanyahu didn't want a cease fire. All of the groups came together to say he has to go. Today, Netanyahu threw Pres. Biden under the bus as his Hail Mary. There's nothing Pres. Biden has done to put anyone in danger. Netayahu is done, & Biden's his Hail Mary. @bobney
Rick: There's a county in NC that has banned Coke vending machines.
Bob Ney: This is in retaliation for Coke's opposing GA's voter suppression laws. Because Coke is too leftwing. @bobney
Bob Ney: I think it's funny in one state a company is too left and in another state they're too far right.
Rick: I blame the company. They should have stayed out of politics, shouldn't have funded ALEC. They should concentrate on running their company. @bobney

Sarah Burris: Any time someone uses Facebook to start an insurrection, it's a good time to lose FB privileges. Trump can spend his couple of years in FB prison and think about what he did. @SarahBurris@RawStory
Rick: Trump's blog already went down.
Brett Pransky: I'd read it while eating Trump steak and drinking Trump vodka if those hadn't gone away, too. @BrettPransky
Scott Dworkin: It needs to be more than Trump--it needs to be the demon spawn, the people who encouraged Trump, Fox News... @funder@TheDemCoalition
Scott Dworkin: The House is moving forward with investigations already, with at least two about 1/6. The Speaker offered again for another vote, & she's letting the Repubs walk into their own propeller. @funder@TheDemCoalition
Scott Dworkin: The deal they reached for the commission was embarrassing & pathetic, & I don't like it at all. @funder@TheDemCoalition
Scott Dworkin: The House investigations will move forward. Jan 6th investigation won't be over till at least next year--we haven't found the pipe bomber yet. Hundreds of people are going to prison, & that's no small deal. @funder@TheDemCoalition
Brett Pransky: No one's looking to count any other races. Republicans aren't counting the races they won, only the ones they lost. @BrettPransky
Brett Pransky: What kind of people are listening to the Repubs? The Mayan calendar folks predicting the end of the world, or Lucy moving the goalposts? @BrettPransky
Scott Dworkin: A key point is that it's easier to do this during COVID. The installment part is just grift, to raise funds. There is no route for them whatsoever, no was to reinstall Trump. @funder@TheDemCoalition
David Borer: The Biden admin has been great so far. The way the Pres. weighed in on the Amazon campaign was terrific. And now, our TSA officers will have full bargaining rights. @AFGENational@daborer
David Borer: When TSA was created after 9/11, Repubs didn't want TSA to be unionized. AFGE fought for that in Congress & has fought ever year since then. We were finally able to get an election in 2011; we were allowed limited collective bargaining rights @AFGENational@daborer
David Borer: Pres. Biden has granted full bargaining rights now for TSA workers. This was a huge gain for federal workers. @AFGENational@daborer
Khalif Ali: Unless I misread the Constitution, which I doubt I have, Trump cannot be reinstated. If there's an installation of a dictator, that might be a different question. We'd all like to move on from this. @commoncausepa@CommonCause
Khalif Ali: It's the responsibility of elected leadership not to feed into the big lie. @commoncausepa@CommonCause
Khalif Ali: We already have a process in place in PA, called a risk limiting audit. We'll be focusing on the Nov. elections, if anything. @commoncausepa@CommonCause
Sarah Burris: Another word for "reinstall" is coup d'etat. There is NO reinstall clause. There's no Lowe's is coming to put your fridge together. Nothing. The former guy wants to believe he can regain power & not be help responsible or forced to testify. @SarahBurris@RawStory
Sarah Burris: The coup is happening in August. Hmmmm. I'm gonna leave town in August. @SarahBurris@RawStory
Sarah Burris: I think one of the most important things Trump can do to remind people of how awful the last four years were is to remind people of how awful the last four years were. @SarahBurris@RawStory
