As I wrote for @NBCNewsTHINK back when Trump pardoned @DineshDSouza, there’s a reason why DOJ has rules for pardon eligibility — to protect Presidents from abusing their constitutional power simply because they have a partisan (or personal) axe to grind:https://t.co/xGZmalemDx

The change I saw in my white neighbors, friends and fellow Christians in this part of South Carolina didn't begin when Trump came down that golden escalator – but rather when Barack Obama was declared president-elect in November of 2008. https://t.co/1jK33S3pfu

Trump’s presidency can be understood as a 4-year assault on journalism, in which he’s attacked individual reporters, newspapers, and TV news networks. He’s always been at war with the truth, and now he’s attacking the ability to call out lying on the net.https://t.co/DG2bob3FBv

Plain now that Brexit offers literally no win for this country. It's going to make us poorer, life harder, travel difficult and the UK far weaker. I blame noone for backing it originally, but if you still are now you're very gullible, a Tory MP, a Farage cultist or very very rich

Shadow SoS Louise Haigh aghast at Brandon Lewis's decision. Tells HoC his approach works against reconciliation & Finucanes see it as "farcical". There must not be "a lesser standard of justice" for victims in NI, & SoS is only delaying the inevitable – a public inquiry. pic.twitter.com/ognAFuhppv
