“There’s no such thing as country over party, no threat to Democracy too great or too dangerous to let Democrats win,” says @mehdirhasan of the GOP in 2022. “You can see how easy it is to lose our democracy without a single bullet being fired.”

If Putin feels like he’s losing control of Russia, “I certainly think he would intentionally start some kind of conflict,” says @jeffaedmonds. He’d threaten that unless sanctions are lifted, “They’re going to have a full war between NATO and Russia.”

“This is how countries slide slowly into authoritarianism, because small, mediocre men like Bill Barr believe they’re the smartest person in the room.” @JoyceWhiteVance isn’t pulling any punches when it comes to the former AG. “Now you don’t need to buy Bill Barr’s book.”
