But @JamaalBowmanNY’s staff convinced him social media is where many constituents get their news. Leaving Twitter (386K combined followers) could cut them off from critical info: “We have a responsibility to communicate to all of our constituents” https://t.co/MDhWQksEvE — PolitiTweet.org

Former middle school principal and progressive @JamaalBowmanNY told me he wanted to quit Twitter. Since @elonmusk’s purchase, “there’s even more vitriol and bullying and hostility and just inhumanity that takes place there. “I feel awful as I scroll the things people say.” — PolitiTweet.org

Congress’ most famous liberal tweeter, @AOC (14.2M combined followers), isn’t leaving either. “There is a line where it becomes too toxic,” AOC, a target of online harassment and death threats, told @NBCNews. She’ll quit when it fails to be an effective form of communication. — PolitiTweet.org

.@AVindman is searching for “coping mechanisms for how I can still use this thing.” @elonmusk, he says, is a “purveyor of hate and division” “If there’s an alternative, I’m happy to go there,” says Vindman (850K followers). “It’s just that there aren’t any real alternatives.” — PolitiTweet.org

“I want to be diplomatic. I think @elonmusk is an entitled jerk, and so participating in a platform of his just helps him out, and I generally don’t like helping out entitled jerks,” said Sen. @timkaine, D-Va. He’s “in dialogue” w staff about leaving but so far is still tweeting — PolitiTweet.org

Amid the funding impasse, Senate Dems this wk will roll out their own funding package. @SenBrianSchatz, an appropriator, described it as “balanced”: “This is not designed to be some sort of gotcha. … This is not going to end up being some wish list of Democratic priorities.” — PolitiTweet.org
