Judge Barrett’s hearings will begin one week from today. Chairman Graham has all the tools to conduct a hybrid hearing, just like the 150 others the Senate has held this year.   We will not stop working for the American people because Democrats are afraid they may lose a vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats say they’ll try everything to stall Judge Barrett. The latest excuse: Hybrid hearings with some virtual participation are suddenly bad.  The Senate has held 150 of these hybrid hearings since May. Democrats have taken advantage of the tools. They’ve praised the format. — PolitiTweet.org

Just had another great call with @POTUS. He sounds well and says he’s feeling good. We talked about the people’s business — fighting the pandemic, confirming Judge Barrett, and strengthening the economy for American families. Let’s keep our President & First Lady in our prayers. — PolitiTweet.org

Just finished a great phone call with @POTUS. He’s in good spirits and we talked business — especially how impressed Senators are with the qualifications of Judge Barrett. Full steam ahead with the fair, thorough, timely process that the nominee, the Court, & the country deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone who knows Judge Barrett, across the political spectrum, praises her independence and impartiality. A judge's job is to follow the facts and the law wherever they lead. Nothing more, nothing less. It's revealing how much this basic concept seems to scare the far left. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats want to pack the Supreme Court. Vice President Biden refused to rule it out last night. Now Senate Democrats are demanding promises and pre-commitments from Judge Barrett.   Judicial independence is vital to the rule of law. Why are Republicans alone in defending it? — PolitiTweet.org

Judge Barrett is an exemplary judge and a qualified nominee for the Supreme Court. Her legal peers across the political spectrum praise her independence, fair-mindedness, and impartiality. That is exactly what the American people deserve on their highest Court. https://t.co/Eawb6JuCeX — PolitiTweet.org

Multiple times, with multiple nominees, Senate Democrats have said or implied that certain personal religious beliefs make Americans unfit to serve. Judge Barrett in 2017 was only one example. Now the media’s joining in. These tactics need to stop now. https://t.co/wisPUKXe2O — PolitiTweet.org

Judge Amy Coney Barrett is an exceptionally impressive jurist and an exceedingly well-qualified nominee to the Supreme Court.   A brilliant scholar. An exemplary judge. President Trump could not have made a better decision. https://t.co/FKadx6TJeU — PolitiTweet.org

The far left called John Paul Stevens anti-woman. They said Anthony Kennedy would turn back the clock. David Souter was going to hurt “women, minorities, dissenters, & other groups" from the bench. Anyone doubt the same old smears will be rearing their heads starting Saturday? — PolitiTweet.org

We don’t know which legal all-star the President will nominate on Saturday. So isn't it curious that everyone already knows exactly what smears and scare tactics the far left will trot out? Their playbook has not changed for 45 years. The nominee is irrelevant to their attacks. — PolitiTweet.org

House Democrats’ first government funding bill intentionally left rural America behind. But @SenJoniErnst and other Republicans did not let the Democrats defund farm country. They secured the Commodity Credit Corporation funding that our farmers and ranchers depend on. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, Sen. Schumer decided to vent his frustration by blocking a bipartisan Intelligence Committee meeting on counterintelligence with a leading expert on protecting our elections. A partisan temper tantrum is one thing. Jeopardizing national security is a different story. — PolitiTweet.org

Rewarding Democrats’ tactics now would not stop their attacks on our institutions. Their threats predate this new vacancy by over a year. Their recklessness only underscores the importance that we do our job and confirm a nominee who truly respects the Constitution. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats are threatening to attack the foundations of the Senate and the Court if they do not get their way. Here's the problem with this attempted blackmail: They have already been making these threats for many months. They've been campaigning on them for over a year. — PolitiTweet.org

House Democrats’ rough draft of a government funding bill shamefully leaves out key relief and support that American farmers need. This is no time to add insult to injury and defund help for farmers and rural America. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2019, under Republican policies: - Fastest annual growth in household income on record - Working-class & middle-class families saw more of the gains - Poverty lowest since 1950s   That's the leadership our nation will need as we rebuild after COVID. https://t.co/Byrmh3DgD8 — PolitiTweet.org
