Federal prosecutors have directly asked witnesses in recent days about Trump’s involvement in efforts to overturn the election, suggesting the Justice Department investigation has moved into a more aggressive phase. ⁦@maggieNYT⁩ ⁦@GlennThrush⁩ https://t.co/DQ4HuqXeDe — PolitiTweet.org

“Are we in a recession? We don’t think so yet,” chief U.S. economist for S&P Global Market Intelligence, tells @bencasselman. "Are we going to be in one? It’s a high risk.” https://t.co/3l8HyuCOJ0 — PolitiTweet.org

Even Trump allies referred to their alternative electors as “fake” and illegal, according to emails obtained by @maggieNYT and @lukebroadwater. They arranged to send them to Washington "even though the votes aren’t legal under federal law,” as one wrote. https://t.co/VKEvoKXq0x — PolitiTweet.org

White House says it has not received any formal notice from Russia that it would withdraw from the space station despite public comments, but will explore options "to mitigate any potential impacts” if Moscow does follow through. @kchangnyt @INechepurenko https://t.co/XD3KirgpN8 — PolitiTweet.org

The White House continues to not send out the president’s physician to respond to questions about his illness, in contrast to past White Houses. Asked if it was Biden who did not want Dr. O’Connor to respond to questions or Dr. O’Connor who did not want to, Dr. Jha said neither. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden predicts there won’t be a recession: "We’re not going to be in a recession, in my view. The [un]employment rate is still one of the lowest we’ve had in history, it’s in the 3.6 [percent] area. We still find ourselves with people investing. ... “ (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Biden’s voice sounded froggy and he coughed during the video feed but otherwise looked well. "So far, everything's good, everything’s on the button,” he said of tests. "I still have this little bit of a sore throat and a little bit of a cough but it’s changing significantly." — PolitiTweet.org

Biden, speaking with reporters via video, said he is feeling better and hopes to be back to work in person by the end of the week. "I’m feeling great. I’ve had two full nights of sleep all the way through. In fact, my dog had to wake me up this morning.” — PolitiTweet.org

Stories have been shopped to Trump-friendly media outlets smearing Hutchinson personally as Trump and his allies take special aim at women who have testified against him during the Jan. 6 hearings. ⁦@anniekarni⁩ ⁦@maggieNYT⁩ https://t.co/f0XaJt51yb — PolitiTweet.org

While many wait for Garland to decide whether to indict Trump or his allies, a Georgia prosecutor forges ahead with a sweeping investigation and may have more latitude to file charges than federal counterparts. ⁦@RichardFausset⁩ ⁦@dannyhakim⁩ https://t.co/C8PbSHA3SS — PolitiTweet.org

While airlines tried shifting the blame, federal data shows that the airlines themselves are the biggest reason for delays in recent months and bear responsibility for an unusually high share of cancellations. ⁦⁦@iduncan⁩ ⁦@loriara⁩ https://t.co/cEUMhpgGT1 — PolitiTweet.org

Tests find that Biden’s Covid is the Ba.5 variant. His doctor reports that “his symptoms continue to improve.” Among them are sore throat, runny nose, loose cough and body aches. — PolitiTweet.org

The White House went to great lengths this week to show that Biden’s work life had not been dramatically affected by his diagnosis with Covid, posting photos showing him working at a desk, talking on the phone and signing a law. @shearm @KannoYoungs https://t.co/xXU7ltEgcJ — PolitiTweet.org

Celebrating daily gas price declines has become Biden's version of Trump’s bragging about gains in the stock market: a public obsession with a single economic indicator in hopes of driving a winning narrative with consumers and voters. @jimtankersley https://t.co/SVLhF5ofRN — PolitiTweet.org
