In October, who would have thought that Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock would be senators, but Cal Cunningham and Sara Gideon wouldn't? — PolitiTweet.org

Around 4:30 p.m., with swearing-in of three new Democratic senators, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) will revert to minority leader, a post he previously held from January 2007 to January 2015. — PolitiTweet.org

Around 4:30 p.m. today, Senate Democrats will have their first majority since the morning of Jan. 3, 2015. With swearing-in of three new Democratic senators, current 51-47 GOP edge will flip to 50-50, and Dem VP Kamala Harris breaking ties. — PolitiTweet.org

Outgoing President Donald Trump's 34% approval rating, per Gallup, matches that of President George W. Bush in 2009. For Bush, though it was actually an improvement. Bottomed out in Gallup #s at 25% in November 2008, just a point higher than Richard Nixon when he resigned. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattklewis Unfortunately, there's a whole genre of films and tv shows in which unexpected things happen. Like the Robert Duvall character in "Falling Down." — PolitiTweet.org

Forty years ago, on the last evening in office for President Jimmy Carter and Vice President Walter Mondale, the pair pulled all-nighters trying to secure the release of 52 U.S. hostages held in Iran. But the release didn't happen until they were officially out of office. — PolitiTweet.org

The federal government owns 48.19 percent of Wyoming's total land, 30,043,512 acres out of 62,343,040 total acres. It might complicate the whole secessionist thing. https://t.co/hZmdQHgSTf. — PolitiTweet.org

President Gerald Ford's most famous pardon was ex-President Richard Nixon. But Ford issued 33 on his last full day in office, Jan. 19, 1977. Including Iva Toguri D'Aquino, "Tokyo Rose," the only U.S. citizen convicted of treason during World War II. https://t.co/fG7kZ9vo0F — PolitiTweet.org

@mattngreen This is particularly stinging, not just due to the mentor/protégé dynamics, but because Thomas was House Administration Committee chair 1995-2001. And on the panel much of his House career. Participated in multiple electoral vote counts and knows how it's supposed to work. — PolitiTweet.org

@wilanofpi It's possible. The Georgia secretary of state has until Friday, Jan. 22 to certify the results. Most likely they'll be sworn in Tuesday or thereafter. — PolitiTweet.org

The late Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound" production style screwed up the Beatles' "Let It Be" album songs “The Long and Winding Road" and "Across the Universe." But it worked much better on George Harrison's breakout solo album “All Things Must Pass.” https://t.co/rZIZXWd4IM — PolitiTweet.org

Outgoing President Ulysses S. Grant (R) feared an insurrection by supporters of Samuel J. Tilden, the 1876 Democratic nominee. Grant warned publicly against such efforts, warning any Democratic Party attempt to hijack a public inauguration ceremony would fail. 3/3 — PolitiTweet.org

With the event came tight security. The 1876 election had been so bitterly divisive — and only settled days before with a notorious compromise effectively ending Reconstruction in the South. 2/3 — PolitiTweet.org

Biden's inauguration will arguably be the most fraught inauguration since Rutherford B. Hayes (R) on March 5, 1877. That fell on a Sunday, March 3, so Hayes was sworn in at the Red Room of the White House. But a public ceremony was held at the Capitol two days later. 1/3 — PolitiTweet.org

With Vice President-elect Kamala Harris resigning her Senate seat Monday, her appointed successor from California, Alex Padilla (D), gets a leg up in seniority over Georgia Dem Sens.-elect Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock. Assuming Padilla, CA SOS since 2015, is sworn in Monday. — PolitiTweet.org

This interview with former Rep. Bill Thomas (R-Calif.) is really something. Condemns former protege, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, over Jan 6. Capitol siege, in even starker terms that clips suggestion. "Hypocrites and Heroes," Thomas calls it. https://t.co/w04bnHCYce — PolitiTweet.org

This was sadly predictable. Heard these kinds of stories in my October/November 2019 speaking trip to Uganda. But sad to see it actually playing out. "Ugandan Forces Surround Home of Leading Opposition Figure" https://t.co/FScCej9Gvj — PolitiTweet.org

Also, Thomas was a longtime member of the House Administration Committee, and its chairman 1995-2001. He was a "teller" at several Electoral College certifications, tallying votes, and knows how the process is supposed to go down. — PolitiTweet.org

Thomas is McCarthy's political mentor, and in 2006 effectively handed off his Bakersfield, Calif.-based seat to the now-House minority leader. "In interview, retired Congressman Bill Thomas knocks McCarthy for supporting 'lies'" https://t.co/6X7Cs8ZukI via @Bakersfieldcali — PolitiTweet.org
