@AkivaMCohen @greg_doucette Here's the downside: the next American autocrat *won't* be a bumbling buffoon from Day 1. He won't be caught on camera bragging about grabbing women by the crotch; his lawyers will be slick, instead of just slick foreheads like Giuliani. It's like the Beer Hall Putsch: a warning.

@Tendar Yeah, "Minsk 3" is really no different than "Munich 2.0" starring the latter-day Neville Chamberlains of Europe.

@igorsushko If someone's plotting a coup, you absolutely do not sit back and let them be, like Kerensky did with the Bolsheviks. You hit them hard and fast and cause the maximum amount of pain, while also being careful not to damage the integrity of the system yourself. Disclaimer: I learned

@PhillipsPOBrien Wagner has a lot of experience with overthrowing 3rd World governments. And I just read a rumor that he has been stockpiling ammunition for 2 months, while complaining of logistics shortages in Bakhmut.

@henryrodgersdc Relevant to the 25th? 1) Trump is barring Pence chief of staff from the W.H. 2) some of the rioters today were specifically trying to hunt down Pence; 3) Pence was the 1 who called out the Guard today&coordinated with DoD/Congress; 4) Pence rejected Trump's E.C. sedition strategy

@JulianRoepcke You're leaving out the Ukrainian forces to the west. I've been following you since the Syrian war,but for some reason nearly every post you've made about this war has been consistently, unreasonably pessimistic about #Ukraine chances (& ultimately wrong). It's odd & disappointing

@julianrouth The canvassers who object can be charged with contempt under Pennsylvania law & also with felonies for violating the 1965 Voting Rights Act. Hit these guys back. Stop playing 100% defense.

@AdamKinzinger Yet another obstacle to Maga gives way weakly. We've seen this repeatedly since 2016. Kinzinger, McCarthy, Romney & so many others just rolling over and giving up their positions of power instead fighting back tooth and nail.

@marceelias These people are going to keep pulling these stunts till they get it right. We need to go on offense & stop playing 100% defense - it's a losing strategy. Hit them back hard - disbar their attorney, arrest the conspirators, flood them subpoenas and counter-suits.

There have been reports of sabotage of Russia's vulnerable supply lines in #Belarus by patriotic Belarussians for weeks but they're apparently becoming more effective the past few days. If those trains/trucks don't move, Russia can't fight in #Ukraine

Belarusians interrupt the movement over the railway to stop the deployment of Russia's equipment to Ukraine. Yesterday, they stopped the trains near the Belarus-Ukraine border. No one in the country supports the Russian invasion. Belarusians keep fighting by all possible means.

@Tendar I can't imagine this is going to help Russian relations with India, which were once warmed but now strained by Ukraine and other issues. Russia's arms have performed so badly in combat that their international weapons business is being wiped out, with India among those canceling

@IAPonomarenko A second journalistic source has confirmed this. Pray for these 5,000 Russian soldiers in #Belgorod who refused to invade #Ukraine - they're putting their lives on the line with a mutiny of this kind. If true, it's heroic.

@JocelynBenson I hope Michigan officials realize that if the state & county canvassers get away with this,it's the end of democracy in America.The GOP will pull the same stunt in other battleground states.We may even face Civil War. You MUST not fail to certify the vote.The nation depends on it

@NateSilver538 One minute you're a world-class expert on polling - which you are, as I've defended you on many times. But suddenly when it suits you, you're just a lowly blogger. Stick to polling and politics. Go outside your areas of expertise and you risk going badly wrong in front of
