    A famous actor of remarkable skill died at a very ripe old age today. Beyond his art, he's known for taking a stand that helped end the terror of the McCarthy years, & for raping a 16 yo girl, events that happened just a few yrs apart. I'm purposely not using his name because 1/

    "Corrupting an election to keep oneself in office is perhaps the most abusive and destructive violation of one's oath of office that I can imagine." I agree, . Voting to convict this president is an act of patriotism. Thank you for yours.

    One of the most popular misconceptions about black history is that over time, America has gradually become less racist and more tolerant. That is not true. Since y'all want a BHM thread, here's a thread about the evolution of racism in America.

    After weighing the evidence and facts in the impeachment trial—and applying the principle that no one is above the law—I will vote to convict Donald Trump on both articles of impeachment. Here's why.

    Today Senators will decide if there is one system of justice for all—or one for Donald Trump and another for everybody else. To defend the rule of law and the heart of our democracy, I will vote to remove Trump from office. I hope my fellow senators have the courage to join me.

    Tonight, Donald Trump will make a speech about the state of the union. But I have a message for every American: Our union is stronger than Donald Trump. And in less than a year, our union will be stronger than ever when that one man is replaced by one very persistent woman.

    Trump’s defense has retreated to their last defense: He’s guilty as sin, but the voters should clean up this mess. We must ask ourselves: Can we trust the President will not continue to try to cheat in that very election? The sad and incontestable answer is: No, we can’t.

    This is literally what you’re enabling by refusing to pass The Securing America's Federal Elections (SAFE) Act and by refusing to hold 45 accountable for inviting foreign interference in our Presidential elections. You cannot possibly have this little self awareness.🤔

    The need for election night results is driven by television programming. Did we need to know the results of the Iowa Caucus last night? No. But the networks play that crazy election night “Decision 2020” music and we must have a “winner.”

    needed to participate effectively has been so undercut by a focus on “marketable” STEM skills. Tl;dr: Give measured/nuanced critique of IA caucus result delays. It does not serve public good to knock legs from under our democratic processes. There are good ways to improve. 7/7

    In a public forum seems to be the most democratic way we *could* elect our leaders. The sad irony of this, to me, is that we have expanded access to education so broadly that we could truly have representative participation, but the rhetorical skill & civic knowledge 6/7

    And all have possible solutions. For example, we might hold all primaries on one day, make it a federal holiday, and imagine an accessible candidate identification system. The caucus system itself—having to form opinions based on critically evaluating competing arguments... 5/7

    3. The charge that caucus is un-democratic is fraught. IA is not a representative sample of the US, the expectation of milling around a gymnasium is ablist, attending the caucus is a privilege afforded those who don’t have to work/care for someone—all of these are true... 4/7

    This is—that there is a paper trail. If we need immediate results (and I think that favors the 24-hr cable news more than the American electorate), let’s use something more transparent and better tested. If not, let’s wait for a hand count. Our elections are worth it! 3/7

    The narrative that election results can’t be trusted? 2. Yes, there were problems with a private vendor app. The profit motive & opacity of private interests shouldn’t be part of this calculus. The part I’m not seeing reported—and which seems like the saving grace in all... 2/7

    My persona (and probably naive) take: yes, there are structural issues with the primary system, bit I think we need a more measured response to what happened in IA for several reasons: 1. Perhaps most important-who stands to benefit most from... 1/

    Adam Schiff will go down in the history books as an American hero. Unlike the GOP, posterity will shower him with the highest of praises and commend his efforts to defend the constitution. Thank you, !

    If you think the delays are bad, wait until you hear about what happens in black or brown precincts across the country. We're used to waiting.
