This graph in the NYT is misleading at best. Graham's bill banning abortion after 15 weeks does not "strike a balance" between Republicans who want to ban all abortions and those that want "more modest limits." It lets all the state bans remain in place. There is no compromise. https://t.co/BlucZvN5jE — PolitiTweet.org

In July, Congress approved $839 BILLION in defense spending for the coming fiscal year. That's more than the next 11 countries spend on their military COMBINED. Now defense contractors want ANOTHER $42 BILLION to account for "inflation" https://t.co/EfniSAqnOG — PolitiTweet.org

If Republicans win control of the Senate in November, Mitch McConnell has said he will consider a national abortion ban: https://t.co/HGm1YADA8B — PolitiTweet.org

7. This is the role of the @USChamber. It allows corporations to funnel millions to reactionary politicians with little accountability. https://t.co/aJ41eAQjRY — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@USChamber @CapitalOne 6. The @USChamber says Oz's victory is essential for corporations. But few corporations are willing to directly associate themselves w/Oz's campaigns. Oz has collected almost nothing from corporate PACs. https://t.co/aJ41eAQjRY https://t.co/N3STIOKUjp — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@USChamber 5. Some companies voluntarily disclose partial information about their contributions to the @USChamber. @CapitalOne, for example, disclosed that "more than $50,000" of the dues it paid to the @USChamber was spent on federal lobbying https://t.co/aJ41eAQjRY https://t.co/vklMXNgi8e — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
4. Which corporations are members of @USChamber? The Chamber does not publish a membership list. How much do member companies pay The Chamber? That is also kept secret. This allows corporations to fund candidates like Oz w/no accountability https://t.co/aJ41eAQjRY — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. So the @USChamber is sending the $3 million to the @Senate_Fund, the Super PAC set up by Mitch McConnell to regain control of the Senate. McConnell has said that, if he's successful, he will consider a national abortion ban https://t.co/aJ41eAQjRY — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@DrOz 2. The @USChamber, which is funded by and represents nearly every major corporation in America, announced it was contributing $3 million to support Oz's campaign. But federal law prohibits anyone from making a $3 million donation to a federal campaign.. https://t.co/aJ41eAQjRY — PolitiTweet.org

.@DrOz: 1. Supports banning abortion 2. Says carbon emissions aren't a problem 3. Won't say if Biden was legitimately elected Now, corporate America is spending millions to put Oz in the U.S. Senate 🧵 https://t.co/aJ41eAQjRY — PolitiTweet.org

12. If Leo prevails, it could throw the 2024 elections into chaos. John Eastman, the lawyer who plotted to overturn the 2020 election, has also submitted a brief.

11. The GOP legislators argue the gerrymandered maps should be reinstated because the independent state legislature theory allows them to ignore the state constitution So far, at least 4 justices seem very open to the argument https://t.co/RVmCVjvDSX — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
10. Leo, through an org called the "Honest Elections Project," is urging SCOTUS to endorse the independent state legislature theory The vehicle is a case by GOP legislators in NC seeking to reinstate a gerrymandered map the NC Supreme Court said violated the state constitution — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
9. The most important thing to know about the independent state legislature theory is it makes no sense. State legislatures are created and constrained by state constitutions. And state courts interpret state constitutions. https://t.co/RVmCVjvDSX — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
8. Under the independent state legislature theory, state legislatures can do whatever they want in administering elections or selecting presidential electors EVEN IF IT VIOLATES THE STATE CONSTITUTION It has been rejected by the Supreme Court for 100 yrs https://t.co/RVmCVjvDSX — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
7. One of Leo's first projects is to get the Supreme Court to endorse the "independent state legislature" theory. It's the theory Trump lawyer John Eastman cited to argue that Mike Pence could declare Trump the president on January 6, 2021. https://t.co/RVmCVjvDSX — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
6. Now, Leo has stepped down from the Federalist Society to pursue even more audacious goals. He recently secured $1.6 BILLION from a single donor, "ultra secret Republican businessman" Barre Seid. https://t.co/RVmCVjvDSX — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
5. What this court has done so far, including overturning Roe and kneecapping the federal government's ability to combat climate change, reflects Leo's goals and vision https://t.co/RVmCVjvDSX — PolitiTweet.org
