President Joe Biden announces career Foreign Service officer Richard Mills, Jr., as U.S. ambassador to Nigeria. Comes ahead of the most populous African nation's February 2023 elections. Recent strife includes a church attack in Owo, Ondo State that killed nearly 50 people. — PolitiTweet.org

Fascinating interview on the podcast of ex-Rep. @justinamash (Republican-turned-Libertarian, MI), with Colorado Gov. @GovofCO Jared Polis. The pair were House colleagues 2011-19. Topics include shrinking state income tax, COVID-19 restrictions, and more. https://t.co/qz7CjasyNy — PolitiTweet.org

@PviGuy @Shane_maps Big change in Teton County, Wyo., from then to the present. In 2020 it was among two Wyoming counties to back Joe Biden over Donald Trump -- the losing incumbent's best state. Teton County was Biden 67%, Trump 30%. — PolitiTweet.org

@ahess247 @RobertACaro @AmazonKindle I won't give away much. Other than to say the opening chapter or two of Volume 3 would be a worthy book by itself. First-rate reporting and writing, to put it mildly. — PolitiTweet.org

@ahess247 @RobertACaro They're all great. But I liked "Means of Ascent," primarily about the 1948 Texas Senate race, the best. — PolitiTweet.org

In the 118th Congress, convening Jan. 3, 2023, there will be at least 56 new House members in the 435-member chamber. So far: - 8 lost renomination. - 31 are retiring. - 17 are seeking/sought another office. That's before coming primaries and before any general election losses. — PolitiTweet.org

@CurtMills Yeah, Trump could totally reregister in New Jersey, New York, plausibly Virginia, and perhaps elsewhere. Though "stubborn" is one of many descriptions of him from supporters and detractors. So, he might not be eager to be the one to move. Though it's the only way it would work. — PolitiTweet.org

@CurtMills Not the point of this, I realize, but seems like there would be a 12th Amendment problem. Florida is the home state of DeSantis (obviously) and Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

When Supreme Court Associate Justice Stephen Breyer officially retires on Thursday at 12 p.m., there will be four living ex-justices. Sandra Day O'Connor, who retired on Jan. 31, 2006. David Souter, who retired on June 29, 2009. Anthony Kennedy, who retired on July 31, 2018. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexi Giannoulias making quite the political comeback, leading Illinois secretary of state Democratic primary. AG was state treasurer 2007-11, but lost 2010 Senate race to then-Rep. Mark Kirk (R), 48-46.4%. Kirk lasted a single six-year term in the Senate before losing in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org

A unique take by @JeffSmithMO on Missouri GOP Senate hopeful Eric Greitens. Has known the scandal-plagued ex-governor since childhood. Says the self-proclaimed MAGA, anti-"RINO" Greitens considered running for the House as a Democrat in the 2010 cycle. https://t.co/uI81V90DCI — PolitiTweet.org

South Dakota's state Senate has convicted and removed impeached AG Jason Ravnsborg (R). In 2020 Ravnsborg pleaded no contest over a fatal car crash. First state official actually removed from office through impeachment since Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D) in January 2009. — PolitiTweet.org

Add one to the long list of father-son congressmen duos. Mike Collins Tuesday won the all-important GOP nomination in deep-red GA10. Surely headed to the House in January 2023. His late father, Rep. Mac Collins (R-Ga.) was in office 1993-2005. Lost a 2004 GOP Senate primary bid. — PolitiTweet.org
