This is the wonkiest thread I’ve ever read and (almost) understood. But they’re fighting over something important–whether BBB’s new dole-like no-strings free money Child Tax Credit will reduce work.

Gellman cited a poll finding that 12 percent say “true American patriots may have to resort to violence in order to save our country.” That seems different than “30 million people RIGHT NOW who are ready to TAKE UP ARMS” to RESTORE TRUMP to office.

If I were paranoid–and I am!–I’d say this takedown of the trial tracker looks more suspicious when combined with prosecution not calling Virginia Roberts, a witness who has some big names to drop! The paranoid paradigm would be “The Fix Is In [to protect the big names]” https://t.co/vGHLhMBHwL

The border collapse may be the main factor in Trump’s rising 2024 prospects. That means, per @Milbank, that anyone who isn’t demanding that Biden fire Mayorkas and regain control of the Southern border is serving as an ACCESSORY TO THE MURDER OF DEMOCRACY https://t.co/b9ErlYHH2h https://t.co/I06fhkrnSD
