    The more people talk about my pinned thread of threads as a "mini-course" on modern American political history, the more it bugs me that it's not arranged in chronological order. So, here it is, with threads sorted together by era.

    This could not be more explicit. The WH held up aid to Ukraine to extort Zelenskyy to publicly implicate Biden on the basis of nothing more than Trump desire to criminalize a political rival.

    Quite literally the definition of a quid pro quo.

    Wow. From Bill Taylor’s statement: “Ambassador Sondland tried to explain to me that President Trump is a businessman. When a businessman is about to sign a check to someone who owes him something, he said, the businessman asks that person to pay up before signing the check.”

    Wow, look at this. Taylor testified that Morrison told him Sondland had confided that Trump wanted an explicit announcement of an investigation into *Biden.* So that blows apart Sondland's claim he didn't know this was about Biden!

    People who admitted Trump used Ukraine aid to force investigations to help Trump in 2020: Rudy Giuliani Bill Taylor Gordon Sondland Mick Mulvaney Donald Trump The "transcript" told us that Trump did it. Those around him tell us he meant it. Will the Senate do anything about it?

    Republicans always wanted someone to run the country like a business, and here we are.

    Yikes. I didn’t think things could get much more damning than that call, but this is really appalling. Everything about this screams that they knew they were doing something wildly inappropriate.

    OK, history Twitter - I need your help. In addition to a) lynchings b) the 1921 Tulsa riot, what are 8 (or so) other things that we should have learned about race in America in school, but didn't? Hopefully my Sunday column (cc: )

    Yes, the final poll average had Clinton +3.2 and she won the popular vote by +2.1. But please, keep insisting the 2016 polls were wrong! It never gets boring!

    Historians everywhere: this is a lynching in absolutely NO sense.

    Sen. Lindsey Graham backs Trump on calling the House impeachment process a “lynching.” Graham says: “This is a lynching in every sense.”

    Whether you’re speaking for or against him, I’m going to need white people to stop freely using the concept of lynching today to make their points.

    Democracy is being lynched by a Racist Liar.

    I literally wrote a book about Democrats who were segregationists, but thank you for your bold truth-telling.

    In risposta a @tomselliott e @KevinMKruse
    Kevin hates being reminded of Democrat horrors of the past. Their connection to slavery & The Klan cannot be denied. It also hasn't changed. See their Hitler Youth Group known as ANTIFA. You can't make this shit up!

    Lynching comment was a crude, racist morning okey doke to deflect from this afternoon’s gut shot. Sad effort from

    Confirmed: Bill Taylor’s opening statement was 15 pages long and led many in the room listening to his testimony to sigh and gasp as he described efforts to tie an investigation of the 2016 election interference to a White House meeting and aid being released to Ukraine.

    The point I was making there was the exact same one that the has made in its account. Feel free to go tell them they don't understand how this works, .

    When we look at Auschwitz we see the end of the process. It's important to remember that the Holocaust actually did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed from words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanisation & escalating violence.

    Actual Kruse: AOC is right to liken ICE camps to concentration camps which are actually different from death camps And yes, I am a historian, but I can probably find a remedial English tutor to help with your reading skills.

    .: It’s “twelve different kinds of bullshit” for Trump to invoke the word “lynching” Also Kruse: AOC is totally right to liken ICE detention facilities to Holocaust death camps. Also Kruse: Have I mentioned I’m a historian?

    So let me just say this - Lynch has been one of the most conservative member of members of the house on impeachment and investigations. Even after the inquiry he was telling constituents (in Boston) he was worried it'd screw up an infrastructure deal so this is something.

    Rep. Lynch on Taylor: “This testimony is a sea change,” adding that it could “accelerate” impeachment timeline in the House.

    I checked the rules, and clerking for Chief Justice Roberts after Yale automatically makes you part of the DC club.

    For defending my homestate of Missouri, liberal media have called me “phony,” “ugly,” “smarmy,” a racist and now an anti-Semite. All in 24 hrs. This is how they bully those who aren’t part of the DC club. But I don’t care what slurs they use, I will ALWAYS defend Missouri
