IMPEACHMENT
the reason
This was written by Jeffrey A. Engel, a historian with a Ph.D. in American history, who revisited one of the original rationales for including impeachment in the US Constitution at the Constitutional Convention and…kinda relevant to current events, you guys. pic.twitter.com/OJWGpbeuKD

and
"[Given] the fact that 'Fox & Friends' had recently aired a segment critical of the city, slamming Baltimore must have been irresistible in a Pavlovian way. Fox News rang the bell, the president salivated and his thumbs moved across his cell phone into action." https://t.co/virwecpr8m

Reminder that Trump's restaurants are rodent infested, and unlike Cummings and Baltimore, Trump owns and has responsibility for that.https://t.co/2B4JrTqGN3

Trashed Lewis
As Trump bizarrely tries to trash Elijah Cummings’ district, remember that he’s done this with a black congressional critic before.
In 2017, he badmouthed John Lewis’s district in Atlanta, too.https://t.co/v0UhDt3dYQ

Trump now says the wall expense will be reimbursed by “other countries,” plural. Perhaps North and South Mexico? https://t.co/pN18tx40ya

tweeting at 🦊 some more
Fox & Friends addressed Pelosi's response to Trump's Cummings tweet at the top of the show, with Hegseth complaining that Dems will always call Trump racist but there's a "systemic culture of poverty" in his district.

MEDIA
tips
Summarizing my tips for the American press: Suspend normal relations with the Trump regime. Try it this way: his actions are reported, but he is not the main character. Move the Truth Sandwich up on your menu. Open a Gaslight Desk. Anchor your journalism in a citizens agenda. 22/

NYT
To think that the best use of your NYT column at this national moment is “I am not an elite just because I attend fancy parties at expensive homes with powerful people and if you say otherwise Trump will win” is both predictable and amazing.

It is beyond satire that, at the precise moment a fudge-brained authoritarian is running child concentration camps and talking about locking up his political opposition, a third of the New York Times' opinion page every day is about Those Jerks On Twitter.

This is 2nd time I've highlighted the @onlybernie account for sexist language
Question shouldn't be IF it's a troll account (it is)
but should be, why are so many sexist/racist trolls, similar to this, drawn to the Bernie Sanders message? https://t.co/aRjCvnYBsp

BIG: Democrats on the Finance Committee voted to let Medicare negotiate for better drug prices.
But Republican opposition forced the amendment to fail even though 95% of Americans support this!
I won’t stop fighting for this.
