I'm not usually one to call for a coach/manager's firing, but I'm not sure how much longer the @Phillies can stick with @gabekapler. The team is too good to be struggling so badly. — PolitiTweet.org

@FEC @RNC @POTUS SIGNIFICANT: The three TRUMP campaign committees raised $68M in the 2nd quarter — 35% of which came from small donors. That's a significant increase from the 1st quarter in both total fundraising & proportion of funds raised from small donors. Story TK. — PolitiTweet.org

Kenneth P. Vogel @kenvogel

@FEC @RNC INTERESTING: Trump accepted $360k from a partnership linked to NYC real estate exec STEPHEN ROSENBERG, who doesn't seem like a Trump fan. In January, he was asked "If you could sit down with @POTUS, what would you say?" Answer: "I would say, 'Really?'" https://t.co/vcxwx9DZzo — PolitiTweet.org

Kenneth P. Vogel @kenvogel

@FEC @RNC BIG MONEY: Of the $29M raised by Trump Victory, $20M came from donors who gave $50k+, including max donations from an ambassador & his wife, a cabinet member, 2 Mar-a-Lago regulars & the mom of the @RNC finance chair. https://t.co/2X2DE8WwQI https://t.co/DZ9il3RRSo — PolitiTweet.org

.@IlhanMN blasts TRUMP for "complete hypocrisy" for criticizing her for calling out what she sees as shortcomings in America, while "he talks about everything that is wrong with this country & how he is going to make it great." — PolitiTweet.org

This would a good time for the @DNC to drop/bury its latest (debt-ridden) @FEC report (which isn't due until Saturday night). — PolitiTweet.org

THE SWAMP: In 2007, Congress passed a law requiring trade groups to disclose the names of donors who gave $5k+/quarter for specific lobbying. The @USChamber, which spent $95M lobbying last year, has not disclosed any such donors since mid-2016. @AndyKroll: https://t.co/61AHmKBoHn — PolitiTweet.org

This is likely to start changing as the 2020 field shrinks, and major Democratic donors start giving $$$ to super PACs, regardless of whether the beneficiary candidate publicly disavows Big Money. — PolitiTweet.org

Kenneth P. Vogel @kenvogel

2020 Dems have distanced themselves from Big Money, which has suppressed fundraising by candidate-specific super PACs. And donors don’t want to commit big $$$ before seeing a path to victory. EXAMPLE: the pro-@CoryBooker super PAC raised only $1.1M in the last quarter. — PolitiTweet.org

@AmericaFirstPAC @JoeBiden LEV PARNAS is an interesting character. Apparently separate from his Ukraine digging for RUDY GIULIANI, Parnas also has worked with the well-connected pro-TRUMP lobbyist BRIAN BALLARD, as revealed by @Lachlan, who has doggedly tracked Parnas's activity. https://t.co/k9KwWNDuBa — PolitiTweet.org

@AmericaFirstPAC If the name LEV PARNAS sounds familiar, he's the Ukrainian-American operative who helped RUDY GIULIANI dig for dirt on @JoeBiden in Ukraine, as we revealed in May. (The Parnas-linked donation to TRUMP's super PAC pre-date Parnas's Ukraine work with Rudy). https://t.co/BfuL5v4YWJ — PolitiTweet.org

NEW COURT FILING: $325k donation to pro-TRUMP super PAC @AmericaFirstPAC was illegal because it came from "asset protection vehicle" used for "the sole purpose to defraud the numerous creditors of LEV PARNAS," claims one such creditor, citing bank records. https://t.co/QqUTX7sfZw — PolitiTweet.org

MEANWHILE ON @FOXNEWS: One host — unironically — pivots away from a discussion about TRUMP’s “go back” tweets into scolding @AOC et al for their rhetoric: “The words you say have real life consequences, & I think that needs to be taken into consideration.” https://t.co/gSu25z6Je4 — PolitiTweet.org
