Scoop: Biden is about to announce his final batch of judicial nominees for 2022. Six new picks, bringing his total to 150. They'll be among his first noms sent to Senate early '23 as Dems expect to hit the gas on judges. w/ @PeterAlexander @mikememoli: https://t.co/Xf1uzY3yFF — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell: "Continuing our support for Ukraine is morally right, but it's not only that. It's also a direct investment in cold, hard American interest." "It's also in America's economic interests" as it would bolster U.S. jobs in the defense industry, he says. https://t.co/aUYUPz3UHJ — PolitiTweet.org

Easy way to understand these ECA reforms: They analyze loopholes Trump and allies exploited on J6 and close them. E.G.: clarify VP's role and raise the objection threshold to 1/5th. That alone would've averted J6—nix Pence pressure, lacked 1/5th in Senate. https://t.co/VOKiyQUJm5 — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenatorTester backs ECA overhaul on @Morning_Joe: "It's gonna stop the kind of stuff we saw on January 6, where a sitting president tried to take the election and become dictator of this country... It's an important piece of legislation that was worked on in a bipartisan way." https://t.co/fKk0RnMgUv — PolitiTweet.org

Trump said early in his presidency he wouldn’t release his tax returns because he was under audit. Per Ways & Means probe findings, that wasn’t true; the audit wasn’t happening even though it should have been. (Tax experts have long said an audit doesn’t preclude release anyway.) — PolitiTweet.org

So what’s the legislative endgame? @RepRichardNeal’s W&M report recommends codifying the audit program into law and requiring public disclosure of presidential tax returns. https://t.co/UB6Pgdtpsb — PolitiTweet.org
Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur
This gets to why Neal demanded Trump’s taxes. He needed a valid legislative purpose. His theory was that an IRS procedure that subjects a POTUS’s returns to mandatory review was malfunctioning under Trump and needs strengthening. His report builds a case that it was, and it does. https://t.co/jZvuGNfclp — PolitiTweet.org

News: Ways & Means Committee votes 24-16 to release Trump's tax information to the full House.

New: Senate votes 70-25 to move forward with the $1.7 trillion government funding bill. It's a procedural vote, but it indicates this package has enough support to pass the chamber. Final Senate vote time TBD. Then it goes to the House. Then to Biden, who has championed it. — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer on McCarthy's opposition to omnibus and how he plans to work with a GOP House on gov't funding + debt limit: "It's too early to judge what's going to happen in the House. There's so much discombobulation and disunity — on different sides of the Republican caucus room." — PolitiTweet.org

Then it’s over to the House, which can vote on the bill pretty quickly. Given strong House GOP leadership opposition, it’ll have to rely mostly on Democrats to pass the chamber. If no bill becomes law by Friday at midnight, there’ll be a (temporary) government shutdown. — PolitiTweet.org

Omnibus latest: Senate will vote ~2:30p to proceed to the bill. If it tops 60 it’ll be clear it has the votes to pass. Next question: can Senate get consent to vote quickly? If not it could be Friday. Thune says storm heading to DC could be “encouragement” not to drag it out. — PolitiTweet.org
