| 1644074981343604739 | This abuse of power should be live on every network right now, so that the entire country can watch what’s happening in the Tennessee legislature. https://t.co/0UZAulvzSr | 9329 |
| 1639789393442402306 | My case for amplifying Trump: 1. Trump fatigue is real. Encourage it. Make people smoke the whole carton, not just one. 2. Too many people claim "I didn't see that." No more. 3. Make the choice as stark as possible. Don't let Trump's team control the narrative with sound bites | 3100 |
| 1640491769115582471 | "Trump has left no doubt that he is a violent authoritarian who intends to reject any election that does not restore him to power... This should be said, every day, in every medium," @RadioFreeTom writes in The Atlantic Daily. https://t.co/gnaatpYTSW | 3087 |
| 1644155440505278465 | When people wonder what attracted me to the GOP over 40 years ago, I keep saying: Its confidence and optimism in the American future at a dark time. Today, the Republicans are cowardly opportunists elected by terrified fanatics, all of whom have turned against the American idea. | 3044 |
| 1643284065812873217 | I don't think most people realize how much this screws Russia for decades to come (unless Russia decides to become a normal country and live in peace with its neighbors). And when Sweden arrives...yikes. Already the most powerful alliance in the history of the planet. https://t.co/tOdhnpZ85y | 2269 |
| 1641999168821444608 | Vladimir Putin destroying his own army and helping NATO to get to 32 of the richest and most powerful nations on earth is the greatest self-own in history. But Elon Musk destroying 20 billion dollars in value because of status envy is the winner in the capitalism division | 2161 |
| 1645947368875991040 | Every American voter should be made to watch this Trump interview. The Democrats should buy a million hours of ad space and just run it all day long. | 1947 |
| 1642002172723224576 | Elon Musk has lost more money than anyone in history, Guinness World Records says https://t.co/N2ZxSx3tV5 | 1556 |
| 1640385498412728323 | Donald Trump is the most dangerous person in American politics, a unique and existential threat to our institutions. Trump should be stopped as early in the process as possible. The rest is just arguing over strategy. | 1489 |
| 1640566333535408129 | Talking with my Naval War College colleague and friend @FPRI_Orbis, and we are hard-pressed to think of any war we've studied or taught that matches the level of pure incompetence on the part of the Russians in this Ukraine war. It's staggeringly stupid. /1 | 1467 |

| 1643342714493194241 | I’ll block anyone discussing the judge’s family, or anyone in my TL arguing with people trying to discuss the judge’s family. That shit is straight up gangsterism And we’re not gonna be doing that today. | 1514 |
| 1645960463828541440 | That is the longest interview with Trump I've seen about "nuclear" and I retroactively have chills that this moron was the Commander in Chief. I cannot imagine how the guys at STRATCOM must have felt. https://t.co/e0JICWQgba | 1154 |

| 1642669978632503296 | Stahl interviewed Greene as if she were just another someone unusual member of Congress with some out-there ideas. Showed MTG some of her worst stuff, and MTG just waved it away, and Stahl let it all slide. | 782 |
| 1641975840866025474 | You know, can criticize the 60 Minutes decision to talk to Greene - as I have - without yelling about boycotts, or conspiracy theories, or raging about Lesley Stahl. Sometimes, a network makes a bad call. It's possible to be critical without going insane. No, really, it is. | 639 |

| 1639790561904164864 | I have a friend whose mom is a Trumper. Every time she'd try to confront her about something awful Trump said or did, she'd say "Well, I don't watch that other news, I didn't see that," as if that rendered it moot. Make it so no one can say that in 2024. | 611 |

| 1647337035793833985 | A longish and quixotic thread on the misuse of "fascism." Why does it matter what we call things? Because labels tend to guide choices and allocation of attention and political resources. So I'm going to give this a try. /1 | 344 |

| 1639788164582711297 | This is a deeply ill man, far worse than the guy who ran in even in 2020. | 12176 |
| 1641922782974955525 | To be clear, if @60Minutes wants to do a story on a racist, seditionist, conspiracy theorist, on her views and her attacks on democracy, they should. It would be a public service. But "let's sit in her kitchen and look at her pictures" doesn't strike me as doing that. | 11239 |
