The 1983 censures of Reps. Daniel Crane (R-Ill.) and Gerry Studds (D-Mass.) — on separate counts of engaging in sexual conduct with a House page — wasn't enough as punishment for some House members. Rep. Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) pushed for expulsion. https://t.co/yUVkWAHq6g — PolitiTweet.org

House censure is rare. Before the 2010 censure of Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) for campaign finance violations, it hadn't happened since 1983. Reps. Daniel Crane (R-Ill.) and Gerry Studds (D-Mass.) were censured on separate counts of engaging in sexual conduct with a House page. — PolitiTweet.org

Retiring Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) embodies the fragile nature of each parties' Senate majority. When Leahy retires in 01/2023 after 48 years, he'll have spent about 23.5 years in the majority and 24.5 years in the minority. Shows political fortunes can change, often quickly. — PolitiTweet.org

Some confusion about the oldest elected senator, going back to pre-17th Amendment days. So, in modern times: — Age 71, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), elected in 2018. — Age 70, Sen. S. I. Hayakawa (R-Calif.), elected in 1976. — Age 68, Sen. Angus King (I-Maine), elected in 2012. — PolitiTweet.org

So, I stand corrected. Per @JacobRubashkin Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) was indeed 71 when he won his Senate seat in 2018. https://t.co/JpvgTPvJ5x — PolitiTweet.org

@JacobRubashkin @JMilesColeman You are indeed correct! We'll see if Welch breaks the record. — PolitiTweet.org

If Rep. Peter Welch, 74, succeeds fellow Vermont Democrat Patrick Leahy in the Senate, he'll be the oldest incoming elected senator. Record now belongs to Paris Gibson (D-Mont.), who at 70 won a 1901 special election for the final four years of another senator's term. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump didn't mention Rep. David McKinley (R-W.V.) in endorsing his 2022 primary rival, Rep. Alex Mooney. But McKinley was among 13 Republicans to back the Biden infrastructure law. McKinley also was one of 35 Republicans to vote for an independent Jan. 6 commission. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) had one close reelection race since first winning his seat in 1974. In 1980, he beat Republican rival Stewart Ledbetter 49.8% to 48.6%. That while Vermont backed Ronald Reagan for president over Jimmy Carter, 44%-38%. Independent John Anderson won 15%. — PolitiTweet.org

The first @cspan appearance by Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) came on Dec. 3, 1982. Leahy, who will retire after 48 years in the Senate, participated in a Commerce Committee hearing on retransmission of television signals by cable operators. https://t.co/PQRQrP17Og @HowardMortman — PolitiTweet.org

Retiring Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) is Senate president pro temp — in presidential succession after VP and House speaker. If Rs win a Senate majority, Sen. Chuck Grassley (IA) gets the post. If Ds keep the majority, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (CA) is Senate pro temp. Both are now 88. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) is the sixth senator not seeking reelection in 2022. Also: Sens. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), Richard Burr (R-N.C.), Rob Portman (R-Ohio), Richard Shelby (R-Ala.), and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.). — PolitiTweet.org

In forgoing reelection, Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) won't become the senator with the longest time in office. That's Sen. Robert Byrd (https://t.co/ebjAASN1Fz.), at 51 years+. Leahy, now 81, was in a position to pass Byrd in 2026. — PolitiTweet.org

@Dansrambles Also, in the 1859 "Pig War" Buchanan avoided a fight with the British over the U.S.-Canada boundary, in what's now Washington state. Only a swine was killed. Though Buchanan's willingness to fight there makes appeasement of secessionist Southern states even more conspicuous. — PolitiTweet.org

@ZacMcCrary @greggiroux @chbooksdc I couldn't immediately find a photo or clip of the pipe, but her accent is really something. An old-school aristocratic Northeast lilt that barely exists anymore. Like a lead female character from a 1930s/40s movie. https://t.co/IJBvIJwP5R — PolitiTweet.org
