On a weekend when the Senate passed Biden's $1.9 trillion stimulus bill, the big news, of course, will be Oprah's interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. That's what matters, of course. — PolitiTweet.org

Twenty months before the 2022 elections in the middle of a pandemic, there is only one safe political prediction: Bipartisanship will not be a voting issue in 2022. Too much more important will be on the ballot. — PolitiTweet.org
Jonathan Alter @jonathanalter
I’ve never heard that either—going back to 1980. And btw, the bill has broad bipartisan support among the American… https://t.co/J5RvTkafqB

As a companion to this searing WPost piece on Cuomo, let me suggest my @newrepublic article on the Democrats and their self-defeating belief in tough-guy leaders: https://t.co/BQguXcQpSn — PolitiTweet.org

@mcopelov @brianros1 Remember the Buttigieg working for McKinsey flap? The left made it seem like he was working with Eric Prince or the CIA. — PolitiTweet.org

@brianros1 Public service jobs, which Carter was unenthusiastic about, was a much bigger social program than anything tried under Clinton. The EITC was a stealth anti-poverty program and Carter wouldn’t have dared do welfare reform. Or work with the likes of Newt on a balanced budget. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@brianros1 For the record, despite their different political personas, Carter was decidedly to the left of Clinton. A lot of it was the Democratic self-confidence in the 1970s versus the party's protective crouch in the 1990s. — PolitiTweet.org

The "Chronicle" was founded by Stacy Lloyd of the Philadelphia Main Line and Princeton. During WW2, it was run by his wife Bunny while Stacy was with the OSS in London. Bunny later married Paul Mellon. Everything is in @MerylGordon's best-selling biography of Bunny Mellon. — PolitiTweet.org

@ArtL7 @NormOrnstein @alfranken I have seen the idea many places. For example, @ktumulty has long been promoting it. I just thought that the all-night vote-a-rama seemed a good way to give it a news hook. — PolitiTweet.org

If they can make the Senate vote all night, why can’t the Democrats demand that you have to talk all night to sustain a filibuster? — PolitiTweet.org

@dceiver @lmlauramarsh I did see "The Irishman." It was fine, but when you mentioned the movie, I realized that I had not thought about it once in the last nine months. — PolitiTweet.org

@dceiver @lmlauramarsh Backdate one that you write this weekend. It isn’t like there are any events in anyone’s pandemic diary. It doesn’t take much to convey a mood of constant mild depression and an obsession with toilet paper supplies. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClydeHaberman As a homage to Hitchcock I adopted “The 39 Steps” as my daily exercise goal. — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelMcGough3 I agree. I saw it on Broadway. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
I read the original novel by John Buchan. It is objectively terrible. The movie, though, is glorious and I think the line, "This finger, Mr. Hannay?" is one of the most thrilling moments in all of film history. In short, the movie is all Hitchcock -- and owes nothing to Buchan. — PolitiTweet.org

THE THIRTY NINE STEPS is a movie I would show to people who hate old movies. @TCM_Party #TCM

@speechboy71 The hardest thing to explain to many political operatives is that three days of bad press is infinitely better than three months of scandal coverage. — PolitiTweet.org

@speechboy71 Almost invariably the coverup is over something comparatively minor that morphs into a major scandal because of the coverup. — PolitiTweet.org
