This is the definitive story on how Lindsey Graham degenerated from Trump's strongest critic to Trump's accomplice.

Here's the text version, published in 7 chapters by @thebulwark.com. It also has links to a book-length version and an audio version, which you can listen to as a series of podcasts.

House GOP Whip Tom Emmer says Trump had to attack Iran because it posed an imminent threat.

"They've got ballistic missiles that can hit western Europe. And if they can hit western Europe, Jon, they can hit the homeland right here in the United States of America."

My intrepid colleague @willsommer.bsky.social has found the Tate brothers violating morays again. www.thebulwark.com/p/republican...

Susan Collins tried to distance herself from Trump in last night’s Maine Senate debate. Her big defense? She didn’t vote with him 95% of the time—it was 72%.

@saletan.bsky.social on why that answer may have only made her problem worse.

@saletan.bsky.social synthesizes Jack Smith testimony from last week and earlier to create the J6 "trial that could have been." Some points are familiar, others are revelatory. All woven into a very strong case. Fascinating. Video and transcript here: www.thebulwark.com/p/jack-smith...

@saletan.bsky.social of @thebulwark.com looks at the evidence that Trump was repeatedly told the truth about the 2020 election, & breaks down Jack Smith’s testimony to prove that he would have been convicted in both the January 6th case & the Classified Documents case. 👍🏻 youtu.be/AzZ4Bcxv-1Q?...

Excellent recap by Will @saletan.bsky.social @thebulwark.com outlining how trump LIED #2020Election using Jack Smith testimony

youtu.be/AzZ4Bcxv-1Q?...

Even his staff advised him he lost

Trump wasn’t looking for ‘honest answers’

Then he created insurrection Jan 6th to not certify results

Obstruction, bad court rulings, and Trump's reelection robbed you of the chance to see him put on trial by Jack Smith.

Now, through video excerpts from Smith's testimony before Congress, we can show you the case he was ready to present.

Testimony by Jack Smith over the past year, assembled by @saletan.bsky.social to lay out the powerful case the special counsel would have made against Donald Trump in court.

This was an awesome indictment of Trump by @saletan.bsky.social w/evidence bombs dropped by Jack Smith during the hearings and testimony. Good watch.

@saletan.bsky.social makes the case against Trump and looks at evidence Jack Smith brought up in a deposition last year:

“  If you think that Trump believed the election was stolen…DOJ officials told him that they didn't believe it was stolen…He knew he was telling them to lie.”

By putting together Jack Smith's testimony in two hearings and a deposition, we can now show you what you never got to see: the trial of Donald Trump for trying to overthrow the 2020 election.

Watch it, and tell us how you would have voted if you were on the jury. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzZ4...

@saletan.bsky.social on whether Democrats should consider impeaching President Trump again:

“I am not against impeachment proceedings if the point is to investigate and expose the various crimes of the Trump administration. But…does it really need to be in the context of impeachment?”

Donald Trump posted Tom Cotton's private phone number because the Arkansas senator is blocking his push for permanent daylight saving time. @saletan.bsky.social and @cheetah.bsky.social break down this strange fight.
