At last. Disgraceful this wasn’t done under previous administrations. One aspect: reputational risk to companies that say one thing on climate publicly, while privately (and through trade associations) telling Congress to do nothing. https://t.co/2VXGPWw41W — PolitiTweet.org

As always, Dowd writes beautifully, here about beautiful writing put into political service. My only cavil is that Putin is not “irrational,” his premises and values are warped; his salient fact is that Russia is in hopeless decline. https://t.co/pRrM1tslqp — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court opened the door for dark money, and we’ve been drowning in it ever since. Let’s pass my DISCLOSE Act and restore a democracy by the people, for the people. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s more than a sideline drama. It’s a pain point for Putin when oligarchs’ (and his) assets get the squeeze. And it’s a “stand up” moment for the West against kleptocracy, with national security significance. And as Finley says, it’s justice. https://t.co/Kcfwu5kweR — PolitiTweet.org

Now that it’s clear that the international dark economy is a threat to U.S. national security, maybe it will be given less “aid and comfort” by U.S. firms.   https://t.co/OcTkOKBHeY — PolitiTweet.org

The fossil fuel industry is using the crisis in Ukraine to jack up prices and rake in cash. @RoKhanna and I introduced a windfall profits tax to send that money back to the American people through quarterly checks. It’s time to make this right. — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow, we’re going to change our clocks to gain an hour of daylight. If we pass my Sunshine Protection Act and make Daylight Saving Time permanent, we’ll never have to lose that hour - let's get it done! https://t.co/793kpo2Soh — PolitiTweet.org

We know oligarchs and international criminals use our financial system to hide their stolen wealth. Now, we've passed over $350M to help @FinCEN and @USTreasury track down these bad actors and cut them off. I'll keep pushing for more funding to clean up this mess. — PolitiTweet.org

Americans are tired of changing their clocks twice a year. When winter comes, nobody wants to be sitting in the dark. Let’s make Daylight Savings Time permanent and free ourselves from this outdated ritual. — PolitiTweet.org

Ukraine’s Minister of Defense says Russians have now killed more Ukrainian civilians than they have killed Ukrainian military, border guard and police casualties combined. It’s a war on civilians. — PolitiTweet.org

Another blow to reproductive freedom: state Supreme Court blocks a challenge to Texas’s unconstitutional abortion bounty-hunting scheme. Copy-cat bills are popping up across the country, while precedent flies out the window. Very grim. — PolitiTweet.org
