Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

        “review of #JaySekulow’s own list, drafted in March, of questions Mueller might ask Trump should make it clear to anyone exercising a tiny degree of skepticism that the claim Mueller is exclusively focused on obstruction is utter nonsense” #TrumpRussia #CATUS #JusticeMustBeServed

        “And yet Trump, from within the bubble of sycophants, clueless lawyers, and credulous reporters is blindly taking action in the hope of undercutting the pardon-proof plea deal of his campaign manager.” Good stuff as always.

        great read as usual. does republican incompetence really matter when their voters are a) even dumber, b) believe anything their propaganda machine tells them? seems like hannity will just say "here's what these documents mean" and they will accept it as gospel.

        This reminds me of how Trump did not allow his campaign to research his background to prepare for oppo research attacks.

        Is Sekulow's broad background that prepared him to face his current challenge kind of like Trump preparing his whole life for his meeting with Kim?

        Defense attorneys never want to know exactly what crimes their clients committed. It makes them less effective advocates. I do fully expect that the newly-declassified materials will deeply implicate the campaign and the presidency. It's hilarious they've no idea what's in them

        I wonder how many of his people are reading your blog now? I mean, we know Roger Stone at least read one of your posts 😂

        We know Roger Stone appreciates @emptywheel's skills & wits, but here's hoping the other Trumpkins think Marcy is just some woman blowing smoke b/c she doesn't like Trump & doesn't deserve to be taken seriously.

        Like the ressentiment usage. I've been thinking about that concept a lot over the past couple years, chiefly in regards to the cultural positioning white baby boomers seem to've staked out for themselves since Obama's election.

        Can it be that simple? I'm not convinced yet, there's something afoot, they really can't be that dumb? I'm talking about Trump, his legal team & most Republicans.
