(THREAD) The Constitution doesn't allow a president to pardon himself—or any person with whom he has illegally conspired. No serious scholar believes "self-pardoning" is legal. This thread discusses why Trump's latest claim is false and dangerous. I hope you'll read and share it.

SYMPATHY FOR DAENERYS: Daenerys was never The Mad Queen. Rather, she was Daenerys the Benevolent crushed by the wheel of Westeros into Daenerys the Unappreciated, the Unloved, the Betrayed, the Traumatized and the Heartbroken. hbowatch.com/game-of-throne…

Game of Thrones Complainers don’t appreciate depth and meaning, they scrutinize irrelevant details, and they flat out misunderstand what they are viewing. Imagine #GameOfThrones Complainers reviewing some of the most beloved classic movies: hbowatch.com/game-of-throne…

Trump talked to this child dressed as a cop...probably told the kid "there was no collusion and no obstruction...that I can tell you..."

JUST NOW: Nicole Wallace to former Pence press sec Marc Lotter "I'll send an email to Fox News and you can peddle your propaganda there." 🤣

Sam Nunburg just implied on #msnbc that he recently talked to Steve Bannon & then in next sentence says been talking to Alan Dershowitz? 🤔

House Intel Member Mike Quigley on #MSNBC just now: Russia hacked into state election boards and we're not sure how far they got yet.

Of course she does. Her whole campaign was part of Putin's plan. Anyone who voted for her should be ashamed of themselves. x.com/Mediaite/statu…

Rob Goldman Please stop spreading GOP talking points that Russia wasn't supporting Trump (Rob Goldstone email & much else confirms they were) and take responsibility for allowing Facebook to be used by a hostile foreign intelligence service to attack America.

#JillStein had a 2nd RT event with her "Russian friends" where she had the "honor" of speaking to Russia Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov to whom she outlined a proposal "for all countries". He "asked her to follow-up with more details." Was there follow up?? 🤔 BanditRandom

On #MSNBC just now, Howard Dean said #Trump's "kids are going to jail for money laundering" in New York because of a "parallel investigation". There has been a lot of speculation about NY, but Howard Dean spoke as if he knew this with certainty. #TrumpRussia

Just now on #MSNBC , Malcolm Nance said #Trump will never impose/enforce sanctions or otherwise punish Russia since "there is a debt to be paid" and Trump "won't do anything to antagonize his bookie". #TrumpRussia #TrumpColluded

Trump is #soangrywithrussia that he's going to nominate someone to work in the State Department.

#AliVelshi is a model journalist & newscaster, but watching him now & he (and the media as a whole) gives excessive screentime to #Trump Tweets. Since Trump won't hold a news conference, wouldn't it be reasonable to NOT publicize #TrumpTweets until he does so? #NicoleWallace
