The incremental wins are cold comfort to progressives, who had larger ambitions for the trifecta. How @SenAlexPadilla sees it: "It's not either. Where we can make progress — we can, we should. And we still keep aiming high on the bigger-picture items." https://t.co/3Byl9tZ3M3 — PolitiTweet.org

Asked by @LesterHoltNBC if it was a messaging problem on his behalf that more don't know what's in Build Back Better, @POTUS replies: "Yes, I think it was." "I haven't sold it well." He says that's part of why he went to Virginia—to talk prescription drug prices and insulin. — PolitiTweet.org

"People have to weigh the risks and benefits. They let their kids play sports, but maybe not violent ones. They don’t drive in a snowstorm. They ignore [CDC's] advice about medium-rare burgers and heed its warnings about medium-rare chicken." @DLeonhardt: https://t.co/8AmF5EwNpH — PolitiTweet.org

What’s behind it? Democrats say they’re delivering on restoring functional government and taking wins where they can: “We're lawmakers, not law-suggesters.” Republicans attribute it to BBB stalling and preservation of the filibuster. w/ @scottwongDC 👇 https://t.co/3Byl9tZ3M3 — PolitiTweet.org

Biden says he’s “not looking to make an ideological choice” on SCOTUS. He wants a Breyer-like judge “with an open mind, who understands the Constitution, interprets it in a way that is consistent with the mainstream interpretation of the Constitution.” https://t.co/e43qBlYBPb — PolitiTweet.org

On Democrats’ challenges with Manchin-backed taxes: Raise the corporate rate? Can’t do that, Sinema is opposed. End carried interest? Sinema is an obstacle. 28% capital gains tax? Menendez is not a fan. Broad Medicare power to negotiate prices? Sinema and Menendez are resistant. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. @JohnCornyn on what to do about partisan gerrymandering: "I don't have any silver bullets for it," he said. "The main protection is the Voting Rights Act in minority voting districts. Other than that, it's pretty much the wild, Wild West." https://t.co/vx4XkPuNLh — PolitiTweet.org

McCarthy says Dems are trying to “cheat” in NY. Trump complains GOP is getting “creamed” at redistricting. Dem response? Rs can support their bills to end partisan gerrymandering. But Senate Rs aren’t interested. “I think it's best left to the states.” https://t.co/vx4XkPuNLh — PolitiTweet.org
Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur
New: Democrats are exceeding expectations at redistricting, even outpacing GOP in a recent analysis. Ironically, Dems still favor a federal ban partisan gerrymandering but Senate Republicans oppose it. “Nah, just the courts can handle it,” Graham says. https://t.co/vx4XkPuNLh — PolitiTweet.org
