McConnell says the omnibus will fund the military at a higher level than domestic non-defense, breaking a longstanding Democratic demand for “parity” between the two pots. He calls that an incentive for his party to support it. “This is a strong outcome for Republicans.” https://t.co/XDU2xcVD9B — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer: "Appropriators are racing around the clock to finish the last major item on our to-do list for 2022: an omnibus package that will keep the government funded through next fall." He said it was an "extremely busy weekend." (Party leaders hope to release bill today) https://t.co/doHtgJGS6b — PolitiTweet.org

Thompson says J6 is "nearing the end of its work." "But as a country, we remain in strange and uncharted waters. We’ve never had a POTUS stir up a violent attempt to block the transfer of power. I believe nearly two years later this is still a time of reflection and reckoning." https://t.co/WkgvHFo0rF — PolitiTweet.org

Amazing NYT piece on a Long Island congressman-elect and the resume he ran on. The college he cited has no record of him graduating, Wall St firms he said he worked at say they have no record of it, his pet charity isn’t registered w/IRS. And there’s more. https://t.co/CBkWyj107u — PolitiTweet.org

New: 2022 began badly for @SenSchumer. Manchin had knifed BBB. Voting rights push failed. Inflation was up. Dems feared a shellacking. “It was a down moment,” Schumer tells NBC. He dishes on how it morphed into a string of policy wins & larger majority: https://t.co/Em1jKAQkkF — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s big bet for 2024 is that these outlets (their editorial/opinion sides, at least) will get on his team — either tacitly or explicitly — in the general election if he wins the nomination. https://t.co/aygPYe6M4e — PolitiTweet.org
