@DDumpsterfire @karunchandhok you also don't need to drive right up to the back of the car ahead and crash, when you have all that space to his left and ample time to use it https://t.co/CyrWlY9Sip — PolitiTweet.org

@Patrick80346870 @uhRilxy @Aperta maybe he was thinking Hamilton would use all that time and all that space on the left to drive ahead rather than drive up to the back of him and crash https://t.co/CyrWlY9Sip — PolitiTweet.org

Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur

@karunchandhok agree with the last part but not clear why Hamilton would be justified in crashing into Verstappen even if he wasn't told. there was space on the left to overtake and Hamilton didn't need anyone's permission — PolitiTweet.org

@uhRilxy @Aperta pretty funny that blaming Max was the reflexive reaction. Lewis crashed into him. since when is "he was driving slower ahead of me" an excuse to hit someone — PolitiTweet.org

@McCormackJohn conservative senator wanted to confirm a conservative justice — PolitiTweet.org

Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur

@McCormackJohn the same base he voted with almost all the time while in office! not asking purely for public statements, I mean any reporting, any private convs, any agony about weakening the filibuster. If true surely there’d be some evidence — PolitiTweet.org

Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur

@McCormackJohn if your point is it’s an unprovable theory, fair enough. salient issue to me was the pressure on them to confirm a conservative justice. the rest was noise. their base didn’t care about the filibuster and they expressed no reluctance about using the nuke in ‘17 — PolitiTweet.org

Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur

@McCormackJohn yes - if. but again my question is have either of them suggested they wouldn’t have done it? — PolitiTweet.org

Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur

@McCormackJohn yes I do. I covered it daily! and 2/3 of those senators you mentioned voted to confirm him — PolitiTweet.org

@McCormackJohn well. maybe! seems like conjecture given that none of them batted an eyelash before nuking it for Gorsuch - their standards were never stated — PolitiTweet.org

@McCormackJohn what’s this based on? did any one of them delineate nuking for one and not the other? — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate has a deal to vote on the government funding bill tonight. The Republican rabble-rousers get their amendment vote. It will fail. Then the bill will pass and keep the government funded through Feb. 18. — PolitiTweet.org

In the wake of the latest school shooting, @ChrisMurphyCT went to the Senate floor today to ask for consent to pass the House-approved HR8 bill requiring near universal background checks for gun transfers. @ChuckGrassley objected. Gridlock on this continues. (via @frankthorp) — PolitiTweet.org
