From Timothy Snyder, Yale History professor:
@jkottke
In a normal country when a coup fails the perps are shot, hanged, or imprisoned.
@jkottke Colbert's version

@NIH_LLAMAS @jkottke

God bless Stephen Colbert. This is my one complaint about the timing of the writer's strike: we don't get to hear Colbert sound off about 🍊🤡's current...circumstances.

@jkottke Given that the US executes folk for much less than a violent coup, I think Trump should be thankful that he lives in a country where being white, male and wealthy ameliorates consequences.
@jkottke ummm they (not) get sent to Belarus?
@jkottke Wish Prof. Snyder was on Mastodon instead of Xitter.

@brianstorms @jkottke

I have actually send him an invite already 2 month ago - we should probably repeat this

@jkottke @WesternInfidels Well, unless your name is Prigozhin...
