Don’t use my son’s death, and his and his colleague’s photos – to promote your vile propaganda. Jack stood against everything you stand for – hatred, division, ignorance. https://t.co/R8LO16lugk

Marr is trying, to be fair, he's really trying. And some of his blows are landing. But here, he's just being steamrollered. And Johnson is lying so prolifically, so fluently, that it's impossible to counter all of it in one interview. Which is the Tory strategy. https://t.co/2yBzIcrGnR

oh and…
The Queen and the false news accompanying her, has taken the #AwfullyBritishTwitterProblems to a whole new level. To say, that escalated quickly would be an understatement.

BREAKING: Trump refuses to participate in impeachment hearing — after complaining he couldn’t participate in hearingshttps://t.co/k4bXHC9stB
— Raw Story (@RawStory) December 2, 2019
Okay, well, if neither Trump nor his lawyers will participate in a public hearing about impeachment and how it may apply to the president’s wrongdoing then let’s not hear anymore complaints about an “unfair process” or his offenses “not being impeachable.” https://t.co/0fHt1EjuAD

Exactly right. And note the Senator’s final ramble, which ended with Chuck saying “we’ll leave it there” and “thanks for coming on.” The insanity around thinking this is normal or ok or that he should be booked again—I’m just sorta amazed by that. https://t.co/iV7TNn6Q6i
