The #GOP, a coalition between Big Business farmers and turkeys who'll vote for Christmas (Red Scare cowards, apocalyptic white nationalists, religious fanatics) has fallen to its bizarre, violent radical wing, obsessed with policies that are irrelevant to most Americans.

As @owillis writes, the views of the radical right - which are also the policies of the GOP - are wildly out of step with the US political view:

Christmas's apocalyptic airline meltdown stranded thousands, ruining vacations and costing fliers a fortune. It wasn't just #SouthwestAirlines' meltdown - as stranded fliers sought alternatives, airlines like #AA raised the price of some domestic coach tickets over $10K. 1/

This didn't come out of nowhere. Southwest's growth strategy has seen the airlines add more planes and routes without a comparable investment in back-end systems, including crew scheduling systems. 3/

I can't think of a higher note for #PeteButtigieg to spend his last day on the campaign trail than commemorating #Selma55. To #TeamPete supporters it has been fun getting to know y'all after my girl dropped out. You're welcome to stick around. Hugs & support to y'all 🤗

It only took 1 question for #Bloomberg to bring up #RussianInterference on behalf of #Bernie -to his credit he once again vehemently condemned it #DemDebate2020 #DemDebate
Pretty clear early on that #BernieSanders isn’t gonna get away from this debate unscathed, like virtually every #DemDebate before this one #DemDebate2020
Joe Biden hits Bernie on his record on guns, invoking Mother Emmanuel church shooting. The first time he’s being challenged on that in a serious way #DemDebate2020 #DemDebate
Overheard at a #PeteButtigieg rally:
Person 1: “#Bernie ran away with it. Like forty something percent.” Person 2: (shakes head) “I just don’t understand it.” Good sum-up of the way most traditional/moderate democrats are feeling today after #NevadaCaucuses #NexstarDC

1/ “Even if a new president proposes sweeping reforms, Congress would block or severely #weaken them. In #foreignpolicy, however, a new president could reshape the world with a few strokes of the pen. @StephenKinzer
@stephenkinzer 2/ “A president could bring the U.S. back into the Iran nuclear deal; lift sanctions on Venezuela; offer to begin peace talks with Russia & China; pull American troops out of the ME; stop promoting the overthrow of foreign governments @StephenKinzer
@stephenkinzer 3/ 3 candidates are fully wedded to the paradigm of #conflict & #confrontation that shapes American #foreignpolicy: #JoeBiden, #AmyKlobuchar, & #PeteButtigieg.
Back in March 2018 we reversed engineered / identified just over 250 Twitter accnts of the 600 Russian influencer accts monitored by the German Marshall Fund at the #Hamilton68 dashboard. Over time we expanede this list and broke them into subcatgories dashboard.securingdemocracy.org
Without giving away too much part of the reverse engineering involved an oversight in how the @SecureDemocracy dashboard displayed its trending data. We reverse engineered enough accounts as seed accounts to then grow out the set over time. We are completely independent of @gmfus
Fast forward to 2day. We looked at the discussion of candidates within the Kremlin-aligned #Hamilton68 subset of accnts most focused on Russian Geopolitics. This wordcloud in first week of Feb. shows positive support to Bernie Sanders #Bernie2020 #elections2020 #nvcaucus
1er bilan de cette primaire du #NewHampshire?
3 faits majeurs:
1. #BernieSanders vainqueur mais avec 1 marge plus faible que prévu sur #Buttigieg. Ils sortent en tête de la séquence #Iowa/#NH
2. Désastre total pour #Warren ET #Biden sous les 10%
3. #Klobuchar surgit vraiment.

2) Le #NewHampshire, juge de paix de la 1ère "étape" des primaires démocrates, a rendu 1 verdict en 3 étages:
. les 3ers candidats ont chacun de quoi se réjouir.
. Il y a 2 vaincus écrasés.
. Le grupetto (désolé mais j'aime ma métaphore TDF😉) des petits candidats est écrémé.

3) Pour #BernieSanders, si la victoire est bien moins éclatante qu'en 2016 dans 1 #NewHampshire frontalier de son #Vermont d'élection, à cause d' 1 contexte différent, "a win is a win" et le contrat est rempli. Il apparaît, avec l'effondrement de #Biden, en "frontrunner" national
Klobuchar basically came out and delivered a victory speech. As long as Pete Buttigieg doesn’t close the gap with Bernie Sanders to something like 1%, or overtake Bernie, Amy’s strong 3rd place finish will be the story #NHprimary2020 #NewHampshirePrimary #NexstarDC
Having said that, #MayorPete could steal the show if by the end of the night he’s within a point or so of #Bernie #NewHampshirePrimary #Primary2020
I take @VanJones68’a point-but I wouldn’t say voters are depressed. “Confused” about who they’re supposed to vote for is more apt. Their priority is “Beat Trump” -still early, these voters don’t have a lot of contests to look back on and see who’s winning #NHprimary #NexstarDC

People who are taking a victory lap over Buttigieg being booed by "everyone" at a dinner last night would prefer if you didn't know that those boos came exclusively from a section of Sanders supporters.

They would also prefer if you didn't know that Sanders spoke about supporting whoever becomes the eventual Dem nominee... or that those boos eventually turned into applause for Pete.

It would be really nice if Sanders' supporters would get out of his way long enough for his actual message to get to the rest of the constituency, instead of delivering their ultimatums and absolutisms from behind a thin veneer of holier-than-thou virtue signaling....

Something I will legitimately never understand. why attack another candidate? You could use,the time and effort to volunteer, fund raise or canvas. you would, rather spend your time on a social media. platform bullying other people. Yes it does qualify as bullying.
Just don’t get this I literally don’t.
So here’s the thing. if we keep dividing ourselves further, and further Donald Trump, has already, won. end of line end of discussion. If you continue to further untrue,negatives about candidates Donald Trump has already won.

#PeteButtigieg’s low ethical expectations of his Illinois neighbors:
“Now I don’t want to pick on our neighbors to the west, but anytime you’re falling behind Illinois in any reform, ethics, or transparency issue I think that’s a bit of a wake up call.“

Pete has low reform, ethics, and transparency expectations for his Chicago neighbors yet took in a big haul of cash from them.

Joe Donnelly campaigned on anti-marriage equality even as the issue gained more support under President Obama.

#PeteButtigieg agreed (🗣: “definitely”) w/ Libertarian Pat Farrell that he/retired people could be mentors to kids.
Pete identifies poor “minority neighborhood” kids as needing mentors b/c no one they know “testifies to the value of education.”

So this moment was definitely awkward...maybe it’s just me, I felt Biden had a decent performance up until this cringeworthy point. Sort of downhill from here #DemocraticDebate #DemDebate
I thought #KamalaHarris did herself some favors tonight, strongest performance of the night. Cory #Booker had an excellent night. #PeteButtigieg had another strong performance as well, consistently solid #DemDebate #DemocraticDebate
Expected to see more incoming toward #PeteButtigieg2020 -surprised he got through basically unscathed. #DemDebate #DemocraticDebate
1/15 This race reminds me of the rule in boxing, a split decision goes to the champ. That's how Biden has stayed on top, plus he's authentic both in screw ups and in sincere moments such as talking about the loss of his wife/kids. #ABCDemDebate #joebiden beta.washingtonpost.com/politics/biden…
2/ Elizabeth Warren's strength is her wonky, thoughtful "I'm not a typical Washington politician" and "I have a plan for that". Dodging the tax question makes her a typical Washington politician. #ewarren #ABCDemDebate #taxes theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
3/ Sanders seems incapable of modulating his speech beyond shouting and haranguing. It was interesting, however, that he finally was willing to abandon Venezuelan President Maduro. #berniesanders #venezuela #ABCDemDebate cbsnews.com/news/bernie-sa…
