An alarm bell stat: 31 percent of “infrequent or first-time voters” who swung to Democrats in 2020 and lived in a state with a Senate Democrat, said it would be a good thing if Republicans took over Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

NEW — In a memo to allies and donors, Priorities USA, the top Dem super PAC warns that it could get much worse by the midterms and that Trump fright won’t be enough. https://t.co/ACMXCOXvNz w/ @ccadelago — PolitiTweet.org

One (unlikely) possibility: in the end, they end up devoting some of the leftover revenues to deficit reduction or Medicare solvency in order to win over Manchin — PolitiTweet.org

my family of four are big cereal eaters and prefer a healthy pour of milk in our coffee cups. Also, we have kids who drink milk at night and in the morning. And we are at 1.5 gallons a week, give or take. 12 gallons is a lot! but maybe we’d be bigger if we went there. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

i know this isn’t the point, but who is consuming 12 gallons of milk a week? do people drink that much milk? — PolitiTweet.org

In a comment sure to infuriarate a few folks..... Manchin to CNN: "This is not a center-left or a left country. We are a center -- if anything -- center-right country." — PolitiTweet.org

@nycsouthpaw Jayapal seemed to hint on MSNBC that the paid leave provision they’re inserting in the House bill will likely get scrubbed by the parliamentarian anyways if added into the Senate version. so there does seem to be a bit of theater going on here potentially. — PolitiTweet.org

But even that might not be enough in the days of partisan echo chambers. We asked Axelrod if Obama would have won Ohio in 2012 had he been operating in the modern media climate. “Maybe not,” he conceded, “maybe not.” — PolitiTweet.org

How do Dems actually win back rural voters? “Showing up helps. Showing interest, showing respect, coming to listen and not just to deliver stone tablets telling people what is best for them, that helps” — @davidaxelrod https://t.co/FqdQX8A5kz — PolitiTweet.org

lol. pretty close to an actual DCCC subject line — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

There is a preoccupation (legitimate) in trying to turn out one’s base. And little time seemingly spent on trying to uncharge the opponent’s. Not sure if there are ways to do it. But it does suggest Dems should find more ways to penetrate the conservative media echo chambers — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

Biden didn’t note that either. He seemed to just dismiss the issue (though it seems pretty clear that they are considering it) saying “that’s not going to happen." — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

This storyline about Biden adm entertaining paying $450k for those separated under Trump’s family separation rarely includes the context that these families are suing for more $. This would be to resolve that suit. It’s not being done as an act of altruism. Doocy didn’t note that — PolitiTweet.org

nail in the coffin for the WH here — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

about the best Manchin response the WH could hope for the morning after VA in that he’s repeating what he’s said before — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

this does NOT sink Emanuel’s nomination. Just means he needs Republicans in committee to back him, which appears likely — PolitiTweet.org

Merkley: “Black Lives Matter. Here in the halls of Congress, it is important that we not just speak and believe these words, but put them into action in the decisions we make" — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter goes from being absolutely essential on election night (real time election updates and voting trend analysis) to being pretty insufferable (hot takes based on incomplete data confirming one's priors) almost instantaneously. — PolitiTweet.org
