Tomorrow, the Senate will put a stop to this reckless and partisan abuse of power by the House majority. I urge every one of my colleagues to cast the vote that the facts in evidence, the Constitution, & the common good clearly require. Vote to acquit the President. https://t.co/LaIRnA98P6 — PolitiTweet.org

The same Democrats who want to take over everyone’s healthcare and micromanage the entire economy couldn’t even organize their own traditional Iowa caucuses? — PolitiTweet.org

Washington Democrats’ position on President Trump has been obvious for three years: They believe he committed a “high crime [or] misdemeanor” the moment he defeated Secretary Clinton in the 2016 election. That is the original sin of this presidency: That he won and they lost. https://t.co/FOzXEd0lL3 — PolitiTweet.org

The Framers knew that overheated House majorities might impeach on purely partisan grounds. But they knew that short-term passions could not get the final say. So they placed the ultimate judgment not in the fractious lower chamber, but in the sober and stable Senate. https://t.co/tvT7IybPwU — PolitiTweet.org

A majority of the U.S. Senate has determined that the numerous witnesses and 28,000-plus pages of documents already in evidence are sufficient to judge the House Managers’ accusations and end this impeachment trial. My full statement: https://t.co/SmXFoME7TO — PolitiTweet.org

There were good reasons why all 100 senators agreed two decades ago that the Senate should not cross these bridges before we came to them. We will not let the architects of the unfair House process convince the Senate to rewrite our rules just for President Trump. https://t.co/7J1zDlnwI4 — PolitiTweet.org

The way the Senate decides to handle mid-trial questions such as witnesses could have institutional consequences that go far beyond this trial and this presidency. We are not going to rush into these questions without even hearing opening arguments. https://t.co/taulxHiJJK — PolitiTweet.org

It will be telling if the House managers try to get the Senate to pre-commit ourselves to supplementing the investigation they themselves oversaw and decided to shut down. Just last week, they said their case as it already exists is “overwhelming” and “beyond a reasonable doubt.” https://t.co/RXcjay4Ana — PolitiTweet.org

‘This body, this chamber, exists precisely so that we can look past daily dramas and understand how our actions will reverberate for generations. The House’s hour is over.

BREAKING: The Senate just passed the USMCA. Next stop: @POTUS’s desk for his signature. I’m grateful to the President for prioritizing this deal and delivering on this major promise. It’s a big win for Kentucky and for American families in all 50 states. https://t.co/vgabr9QxDN — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, the Speaker celebrated impeachment with souvenir pens, bearing her own golden signature, brought in on silver platters. The House’s partisan process distilled into one last perfect visual. Not solemn or serious. A transparently political exercise from beginning to end. https://t.co/AshajRLH2F — PolitiTweet.org

The framers built the Senate to break these kinds of partisan fevers. To stabilize our institutions and protect our country. To stop short-term passions from destroying our long-term future. That is the Senate's duty. That is what we must do when this trial begins. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Democrats’ impeachment has been nakedly partisan from the beginning. Pelosi admits it was in the making years before events with Ukraine. Schumer says that whatever happens, if it helps him politically, it’s a “win-win.” They are playing political games with the Constitution. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
These two things cannot both be true. Is House Democrats’ case so “overwhelming” that it was enough to impeach a president? Or is their case so weak and incomplete that they need the Senate to redo it? They can’t even stick to one story. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Even today, the Speaker and her allies keep contradicting themselves. They say their case is already “overwhelming,” “beyond any reasonable doubt.” But they also keep asking the Senate to re-do their homework and add to the investigation that House Democrats rushed to close. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
It looks like today’s the day. House Democrats may finally stand behind the rushed, unfair, and nakedly partisan impeachment that they themselves delayed for four weeks. The ‘prosecutors’ have finally overcome their cold feet. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
It’s clear Democrats see impeachment as one big political game. Sen. Schumer told reporters that as long as the process hurts Republicans, “it’s a win-win.” The country deserves better. We’re overdue for some seriousness and sober judgment. That is what the Senate will bring. https://t.co/aZU5pMQ2ah — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
We’ve reached a simple contradiction. The House case cannot be so robust that it was enough to rush into impeachment, and enough for Senate Democrats to start pre-judging guilt, but also so weak that they need the Senate to go fishing. These two stories cannot both be true. https://t.co/r3LA9nRhlr — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
First, Democrats spent weeks saying the House case was totally convincing. Now, the opposite: They say the House case is so thin that if the Senate judges what the House actually voted on, it's a “cover-up." Their own investigation was so shallow that it now equals a “cover-up”? https://t.co/08ZrAIqqFb — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
In December, House Democrats pulled the plug on their investigation and impeached because they said it was urgent & they had already proven their case. But now they’ve delayed for weeks to insist that the Senate re-open their inquiry. So – neither urgent nor persuasive? — PolitiTweet.org

It should not take brave Iranians to remind American leaders that Tehran has been a force for bad and the United States is a force for good. I hope this can be a lesson to those who’ve let domestic political grievances pollute their judgment. https://t.co/hRvz7rHRJa — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
If House Democrats were confident their own investigation was persuasive, they would not be so desperate to get the Senate to reopen it. The House has signaled they're afraid for the Senate to judge the case they will actually send us. The case they voted for. https://t.co/oqhg2drPdY — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
I’m glad the Speaker may finally be realizing she never had any “leverage” to dictate Senate procedure to Senators. The Senate was never going to pre-commit ourselves to redoing the prosecutors’ homework for them. https://t.co/DwOeWWvYgy — PolitiTweet.org
