@billscher Then the NM1 special election is June 1, a highly likely Democratic pickup. — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
The departure of Rep. Steve Stivers (R-Ohio), to head his state's Chamber of Commerce, will give House Democrats more breathing room with super-thin majority. When Stivers leaves May 16, LA2 seat will be filled by Dem. And June 1 is NM1 special election, strongly favoring Dems. — PolitiTweet.org

@brianros1 Fair point -- I mention her language only as something that political opponents have often seized on, without (surprise!) considering complexity and nuance. — PolitiTweet.org

In 1992, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), in her first term in the House, called the Los Angeles riots a "rebellion." https://t.co/D9wVvM7bLM — PolitiTweet.org

@ZacMcCrary I can see a cable tv gig, speechmaking, etc. But good points on the lagtime. Ex-officeholders quickly fade away, and not clear how much demand there will be for an anti-Trump Republican messenger. — PolitiTweet.org

@ZacMcCrary Assuming AK gets an unfavorably drawn district, he's better off not running and staying viable for a statewide race, or something else in the future. Like former GOP Rep. Ryan Costello after court-ordered redistricting ahead of 2018. Now eyeing the open seat PA Senate race. — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
Can't imagine the DCCC/House Democratic leadership is too thrilled with the latest from Oregon, one of a small group of states where Democrats have (had) control of the redistricting process. "Deal gives GOP more redistricting power" https://t.co/idTOVpOeDt — PolitiTweet.org

@jlauck1941 @Kansas_Press One of the great "what ifs?" in American presidential history. Garfield can be a particularly frustrating topic because his bullet wound wasn't necessarily mortal. He died as much from sub-par medical care, even for the time. — PolitiTweet.org

There’s much more to #RockMeOnTheWater, whether you’re an L.A. enthusiast, music aficionado, TV geek, film buff, political junkie, – or some combination thereof. It’s absolutely worth the read. 9/9 — PolitiTweet.org

Those of us who were adults only during his second iteration as governor — remade as a Democratic wise-man and a realistic, seasoned office-holder — are regaled with takes of an eccentric, at-time contradictory, on-the-rise political figure. 8/9 — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
And while politics is just one aspect of #RockMeOnTheWater, it offers a memorable portrait of Jerry Brown in the year he was elected to the first of four terms as California governor (1975-83, 2011-19). 7/9 — PolitiTweet.org

On my next drive, upon visiting in late June — fully vaccinated from COVID-19(!) — I’ll have plenty of stories and details from the book to think about along the canyon’s windy roads. 6/9 — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
And having driven "over the hill" to the Westside on Laurel Canyon Boulevard countless times, the book vividly brings to life the creative culture — and at times hedonistic activity — that thrived in the area in the late 1960s and early 1970s. 5/9 — PolitiTweet.org

The book is particularly fun and informative for a Southern California boy like me. Having grown up in the Pasadena area, which is home to many “middle class” entertainment industry workers — costume and set designers, music scorers and many other behind-the-scenes types. 4/9 — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
Though the final chapter offers a political coda of sorts, invoking the names of rival bandmates Glenn Frey and Don Felder. “The Eagles broke up in July 1980 after Frey and Felder erupted into a screaming match at a fund-raiser for California senator Alan Cranston.” 3/9 — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
Electoral politics actually make up only a fraction of the book. Along with deeply-reported entertainment industry figure profiles like musician Jackson Browne and producer Norman Lear. And a group portrait of The Eagles, just on the cusp of their late 1970s superstardom. 2/9 — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
Not that it needs more accolades, but @RonBrownstein's #RockMeOnTheWater is first-rate and sets a new standard for cultural/political history. Particularly relevant in the post-Trump era, exploring how culture is often ahead of politics showing where the country is going. 1/9 — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and ex-House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) obviously hate each other. Yet they're aligned as anti-earmark stalwarts. Cruz is leading the internal Senate GOP fight against restoring earmarks. Boehner rejected them over nearly 25 years, in and out of leadership. — PolitiTweet.org

@jacobkornbluh Serious, non-snarky question. What's the point of this? Not clear if the PM and Mrs. Netanyahu are trying to make a broader political/policy statement. Or just acting like would-be YouTube stars. — PolitiTweet.org

@ahess247 @sree My transition to full-digital was as much about hand cleanliness as anything else. Long before COVID-19 encouraged handwashing multiple times a day, I found myself doing so to get rid of ink on my fingers that was smudging lots of other things I touched. — PolitiTweet.org

The last perfect game was Aug. 15, 2012, by Félix Hernández of the Seattle Mariners, beating the Tampa Bay Rays 1-0. So, we'll have to wait longer. — PolitiTweet.org

House changes for the 117th Congress (members and members-elect who were elected Nov. 3, 2020): — Four will retire after the 2022 elections — Three are seeking other offices. — Three resigned (for Biden administration positions.) — Three have died. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Kevin Brady (R-Texas) is the fourth House member to announce their retirement ahead of the 2022 elections. Along with Reps. Ann Kirkpatrick (D-Ariz.), Rep. Tom Reed (R-N.Y.), and Rep. Filemon Vela (D-Texas). — PolitiTweet.org
