The economy grew 7.4% in the 3rd quarter, the equivalent of 33.1% on an annualized basis, the biggest since World War II. Still, the economy remained 3.5% smaller than at the end of 2019, almost as much of a drop as the Great Recession. @bencasselman https://t.co/kwOFPrOZjB — PolitiTweet.org

Looking forward to our talk with @DelWilber tonight at 7 p.m. on "THE MAN WHO RAN WASHINGTON: The Life and Times of James A. Baker III" w/@sbg1. Del's book "Rawhide Down" is a remarkable reconstruction of one of the most dramatic days of Baker's life. https://t.co/cb5acihRmn — PolitiTweet.org

Greatest economy ever? In fact, even before covid, the first three years of Trump were roughly similar to the last three years of Obama--on some measures a little better, on some a little worse, but on the whole not markedly different, writes @dleelatimes https://t.co/ezp8FaT13h — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell to @hillhulse: "I certainly didn’t expect to have three Supreme Court justices. At the risk of tooting my own horn, look at the majority leaders since LBJ and find another one who was able to do something as consequential as this." https://t.co/GY7HFVXVOO — PolitiTweet.org

Miles Taylor, the former DHS chief of staff, reveals that he was the anonymous author of the @nytimes op-ed in 2018 whose description of Trump as “impetuous, adversarial, petty and ineffective” roiled Washington and set off a hunt for his identity. @shearm https://t.co/ZPT7GM6Zgv — PolitiTweet.org

Second that. I had the privilege of reporting from Afghanistan in the days after 9/11 alongside @RohdeD -- and the misfortune of having to compete against him. He's the real deal all the way around, a smart, gracious and courageous reporter and seriously terrific person to boot. — PolitiTweet.org

Historical fun fact: Before Barrett, the last time a Supreme Court justice was confirmed strictly on party lines was 1869--and it was Edwin Stanton, the war secretary at the center of Johnson's impeachment. He died before being sworn in. ⁦@gbrockell⁩ https://t.co/XdA02TZdtK — PolitiTweet.org

During a single 90-minute rally, Trump made 130 false or inaccurate statements — some entirely made up, others casual misstatements of simple facts, some clearly intended to mislead. He lied about his own record and that of his opponent. @YLindaQiu @shearm https://t.co/ofIfDXP0xW — PolitiTweet.org
