    Anand Giridharadas Retweeted Victoria Brownworth

    It is a measure of how dangerous this moment is that what would normally be platitudes about the rule of law, freedom and the right to report the truth are correctly interpreted as subtle, savage criticisms of the president.https://twitter.com/VABVOX/status/1035915551305084928 …

    "John cared about our #Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the separation of powers, the rule of law....That's why he championed a free press." Obama is giving the cool, calm and utterly brutal takedown of Trump that McCain obviously wanted him to give. #McCainMemorial pic.twitter.com/ADLRBQ1eKQ

        Anand, I watched much of the ceremony and I saw many of the very leaders who have created this current climate sitting in the audience. They aren't listening. I wish we were a sober man with one night of drunkenness but I fear we are a drunk with one day of soberness.

        Obama has always been the king of platitudes. Yawn.

        Platitudes are as common at funerals as are flowers and holes in the ground - maybe even more common.

        I just hope Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are getting the message. Because they are the ones allowing the damage to our country to continue. So it is a condemnation of them too.

        And he says this without a flinch. He really is naturally good at being a politician. “This administration has prosecuted more whistle-blowers for leaks and gone after more journalists than any of its predecessors.” - The New York Times in 2014.https://nyti.ms/SFiZQJ
