These articles of impeachment are so weak that before they even passed, the Senate Democratic Leader began demanding that the Senate re-do the House’s homework. Now the Speaker is hemming and hawing about whether they'll even proceed to trial. — PolitiTweet.org

Last night, House Democrats passed the thinnest, weakest presidential impeachment in American history. Now they’re suggesting they are too afraid to even submit their accusations to the Senate and go to trial. The prosecutors are getting cold feet in front of the entire country. — PolitiTweet.org

Before President Clinton’s impeachment trial, the Senate passed a bipartisan resolution to lay the basic groundwork. It passed 100 to nothing. I think we should repeat that bipartisan process. Why does Senator Schumer want to invent different rules for President Trump? https://t.co/p0rYx6MkjP — PolitiTweet.org

I am glad the Senate passed the Caesar Syria Civil Protection Act included in the defense bill. Assad & his regime have carried out countless human rights violations against the Syrian people & this legislation will help ensure they are held accountable. https://t.co/cMezqqhbxI — PolitiTweet.org

The fact that my colleague is already desperate to sign up the Senate for new fact-finding suggests that even Democrats who do not like this president are beginning to realize how dramatically insufficient the House’s rushed process has been. https://t.co/RFc9EQl5XT — PolitiTweet.org

It is the House’s duty to meet the high bar for undoing a democratic election *before* they impeach. Speaker Pelosi herself once said it was the House’s job to “build an ironclad case.” https://t.co/jOOzeRFtEn — PolitiTweet.org

It is remarkable that, before House Democrats have even passed articles of impeachment, Senate Democrats are already pivoting to new demands for the Senate to re-do Chairman Schiff’s homework for him. — PolitiTweet.org

Why does the Senate Democratic Leader want to pre-determine the House impeachment managers’ witness request for them before the House has even impeached the president? https://t.co/Jng3qWLNjo — PolitiTweet.org

I’d prefer that we simply follow the 1999 precedent, fair & square. That means the question of witnesses comes later, mid-trial. But it sure is telling that Senate Democrats are already trying to write a different rulebook for President Trump than the one we have used in the past — PolitiTweet.org

The Democratic Leader wrote me to ask that the Senate break from the 1999 precedents of the Clinton trial and lock in specific witnesses prematurely. It was an interesting letter for several reasons. For one thing, he literally misquoted the Constitution https://t.co/iEDu0ea0rl — PolitiTweet.org

The Tobacco-Free Youth Act would help stem the tide of alarming #Kentucky youth nicotine trends by making it unlawful for retailers to sell tobacco products to anyone younger than 21. I look forward to its passage and the President's signature. https://t.co/seWxSdLppy — PolitiTweet.org

Earlier this year Senator @timkaine and I introduced the bipartisan, Tobacco-Free Youth Act. This important life-saving legislation would raise the nationwide minimum age to buy all tobacco products, including e-cigarettes and vaping devices, from 18 to 21. — PolitiTweet.org

But it does not have to end this way. I know earnest discussions are still underway as our colleagues in both chambers work to fix this. I urge the Democratic leadership to let the committees do their work, let the Congress do its work, & let us pass bipartisan funding bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats’ impeachment obsession has pushed key legislation to the 11th hour. Government funding has been jeopardized by the House’s procrastination. Democratic leadership must not stand in the way of bipartisan solutions that families across America deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Speaker Pelosi blocked the USMCA for a whole year after @POTUS got the deal. Finally, House Democrats caved this week after realizing the country won’t tolerate "obsess over impeachment, obstruct everything else." But their long delay means it can't become law until 2020. https://t.co/Z07T74OH79 — PolitiTweet.org

For months, Democrats delayed President Trump’s USMCA and blocked routine legislation that Congress must pass before the end of the year. The impeachment obsession has left us with an overload of 11th-hour business that’s still unfinished. — PolitiTweet.org

In less than three years, President Trump has appointed and the Republican Senate has confirmed 50 circuit judges. That is already the most in any president’s whole first term since 1980. https://t.co/3Ns65gvCje https://t.co/r0mZgunu7f — PolitiTweet.org

Our servicemembers in Kentucky – from Ft. Campbell to Ft. Knox to the Blue Grass Army Depot – cannot afford for the NDAA to fail. Neither can our men and women in uniform overseas. I hope both chambers can pass the NDAA conference report and send it to President Trump soon. — PolitiTweet.org
