Sorry @axios but statehood for D.C. and Puerto Rico is not "Armageddon"; it's democracy. There are no reason why millions of taxpaying Americans -- many of whom are people of color -- should be denied representation in Congress https://t.co/wzGsYtQJ0Z — PolitiTweet.org

From February 13, 2016 to April 10, 2017 there were 8 Justices on the Supreme Court AND YOU HAD NO PROBLEM WITH IT — PolitiTweet.org

He's right about the raw political power but I have a feeling that asking/hoping for Trump's nominee to be withdrawn if Biden wins will not work — PolitiTweet.org

People in Florida and Texas feel like efforts to contain the coronavirus are going well? Excuse me? Both states have thousands of new cases each day and 100+ deaths — PolitiTweet.org

The Virginia Republican Party is encouraging the intimidation of voters attempting to exercise their rights at polling locations. — PolitiTweet.org

I'll have more on Facebook and how the company struggles to enforce its own policies in my newsletter, Popular Information. Sign up here. It's free --> https://t.co/TfpCItdVSo — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe Facebook should invest in the human resources necessary to enforce the rules on its own website and not expect the public to do unpaid labor for a company valued at over $700 billion? — PolitiTweet.org

200,000 dead and Trump headed out for another round of golf. — PolitiTweet.org

Remember when Trump was caught calling veterans "suckers" and "losers" (September 2) and that was going to change everything? — PolitiTweet.org

Collins says the next president should pick the nominee. Cynicism is easy. And when it comes to the GOP, the cynics are right a lot. BUT IT'S NOT OVER. McConnell ALWAYS projects inevitability. Sometimes he is right and sometimes he's not. — PolitiTweet.org

It took Trump less than 24 hours to FUNDRAISE OFF OF RUTH BADER GINSBURG'S DEATH https://t.co/amMMCP6KLe — PolitiTweet.org

One name I haven't heard much about is Lamar Alexander. He's supposedly a "Senate institutionalist" and is retiring so is free to vote as he wishes He issued a statement on Ginsburg but did not address whether he would support Trump's nominee — PolitiTweet.org

@jonfavs But these claims ARE part of a numbered list which means they are true. — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum

There are actually enough Senators on the record as opposed — Murkowski, Collins, Graham, Grassley — to sink any Trump nominee. So this should be a done deal. But they don’t really care about keeping their word so there is a very reasonable chance Trump jams a nominee through — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum

Here’s the situation. To justify the unprecendented obstruction of Merrick Garland, several Republican Senators — including Graham and Grassley — pledged to oppose a Supreme Court nomination by a GOP president in an election year. BUT they are unprincipled liars. — PolitiTweet.org

Collins said this month that she would not vote for a nominee before the inauguration https://t.co/FZ5vpPwqTj — PolitiTweet.org

@Daniel_Pawson I don’t think it’s counting to 4. It’s either 2 or 3, or 20. — PolitiTweet.org

Grassley said if he were still chair of the Judiciary Committee he wouldn’t move a nomination forward but did not comment on whether he’d vote for a nominee that was brought to the floor — PolitiTweet.org

Romney and Collins were non-committal in August: "We do not have a vacancy on the Supreme Court. All nine justices are alive," Collins said. Romney said: "I'm not at a point where I have something to say." — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum

On August 3, Murkowski said she would not support filling a Supreme Court vacancy this year because it would be a double standard — PolitiTweet.org
