@JohnRobertAnde3 I'm admiring of what Rucker and Leonnig have done. But sometimes your best sources are also out to salvage their own ghastly reputations. — PolitiTweet.org

I am sure that the exemplary authors of "I Alone Can Fix This," were told this story. But I do think it is a tad self-serving and dubious for Ivanka Trump to have peddled this bit of her Jan. 6 dialogue: “I’m going down to my dad. This has to stop.” https://t.co/NVLAL2zeQy — PolitiTweet.org

@heathbrown But the law doesn't take effect until mid-October so schools can require vaccination until then. — PolitiTweet.org

That is the kind of escape clause that you could drive a Sherman tank through. Almost everyone expects the vaccines to have unequivocal FDA approval in the next 90 days. H.L. Mencken would call it "boob bait" for the anti-vaxxers who cheered DeWine's actions. — PolitiTweet.org

The problem with Michael Wolff's writing is that it doesn't even live up to the standards of "The reporting was unreliable, but, at least, the sentences were short." — PolitiTweet.org

@CharlesPPierce @benpershing There are probably another four or five Democratic senators who are queasy about curtailing the filibuster. Plus it seems like Biden gives Manchin some appointment every other day. — PolitiTweet.org

From a great @greenfield64 piece: "The wishful thinking that seems to have captured the party begins with a profound mismeasurement of what happened last November, which in turn feeds a profound misunderstanding of how major political change happens." https://t.co/KrNWHDkR8Q — PolitiTweet.org

@christyNHC If so, the power of the press in this race was epic. First, Kathryn Garcia's votes more or less replicated NY Times home delivery areas. And then Yang collapsed because of bad press. Fascinating that Eric Adams survived devastating coverage in the final days, though. — PolitiTweet.org
