Because the DC vaccine registration system doesn't include occupations outside of health care workers yet, it's not clear how it is going to work past the very first phase. — PolitiTweet.org

If my Senate math is any good, under the regular order, the cloture vote on the NDAA veto message would be one hour after the Senate convenes on New Year's Day. — PolitiTweet.org

The Massachusetts GOP is fundraising off "radical elites" getting the COVID vaccine before others. Not a lot of state parties can do this, but they can because they're talking about the all-Democratic Massachusetts congressional delegation. — PolitiTweet.org

@GeoffRBennett @jonkarl Pence, Dec. 8 at an event I was in the pool said: "we literally are on track to distribute tens of millions of doses of the coronavirus vaccine before the end of this month." Even using the distributed metric, that's a missed target. — PolitiTweet.org

Niels Lesniewski @nielslesniewski

So yes, if you're a member of Congress or staffer and you want to tell us how you're picking who gets your two staff vaccines, please do let me know. https://t.co/rN1zHnTxzB — PolitiTweet.org

@iankoski I've been having way too many flashbacks to that and the whole Vitter amendment thing lately. — PolitiTweet.org

This is part of the continuity of government supply provided by the NSC! — PolitiTweet.org

I guess this means she's not in D.C. today to join the calls for a vote on this? Also, masks. https://t.co/bgmRxx2Znr — PolitiTweet.org

Members of Congress get to pick which staffers get COVID vaccines. Two staffers from each personal office and four from the staff of each chairman and ranking member of committees will be eligible, according to the memo. https://t.co/Xjq3Y5gn7r — PolitiTweet.org

On this: the Office of the Attending Physician opts not to employ a press secretary, and the press corp can't really get them to respond to this sort of question from members. — PolitiTweet.org

Niels Lesniewski @nielslesniewski

You can, in fact, force a cloture vote on a veto override. It's weird because cloture takes 60 votes but the override takes more. — PolitiTweet.org

Niels Lesniewski @nielslesniewski

@dcbigjohn Fascinating calculations back then. Jeff Flake wrote about how much he came to regret voting against TARP. — PolitiTweet.org

Niels Lesniewski @nielslesniewski

McConnell is not going to get an agreement to have the NDAA override vote on Wednesday unless there's some deal on dealing with the checks. — PolitiTweet.org

Niels Lesniewski @nielslesniewski

So this sounds like an agreement on everything. If there were a filibuster, it would not happen Wednesday. — PolitiTweet.org

You know you're in the archives when you need a @dcbigjohn story about Tom Coburn messing with Harry Reid's floor schedule. — PolitiTweet.org

Niels Lesniewski @nielslesniewski

If McConnell attempts to combine Section 230 and election stuff with the $2k checks vote in one amendment, Democrats could try to take a page from the Dr. Coburn playbook. https://t.co/gjdnkYhTwh — PolitiTweet.org
