I Have In My Hand A List Of 57 WATBs

Politico:

For more than 200 years, the reins of America’s leadership have been peacefully handed over from one administration to another, regardless of party affiliation, in part because we have never seriously indulged in criminalizing our political differences.

My Russian immigrant father, who fled Communist persecution, told me more than once that avoiding political persecutions and show trials was crucial to preserving our republican form of government. But Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) are now proposing something that may well result in criminalizing policy differences.

Sorry, Spakovsky--a Cornish name?--but illegal acts are not mere differences in opinion on the color of drapes in the Oval Office.
