Transparency is the antidote to corruption. Democracies can’t afford to forget that. — PolitiTweet.org

Failures to recuse are unexplained. Flagrantly partisan activities are the new normal. It’s a mess. — PolitiTweet.org

One success: they at last point to the need for a Code of Ethics applicable to Supreme Court Justices. Justices’ disclosures are weaker than executive and legislative offices’ when it should be the other way around. — PolitiTweet.org

We are up to 80 partisan 5-4 decisions from the Court that provided obvious wins for big Republican donor interests. The pattern demands explanation. You won’t find it mentioned here. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Flotillas of orchestrated dark-money “amici curiae” appear before the Court without revealing who they’re fronting for; it’s serious enough for the Judicial Conference to set up a committee to examine the problem. But it’s not mentioned here. — PolitiTweet.org

If anonymous donors wrote checks for $15 million and more to influence judicial selection through dark-money political advertising campaigns, without disclosing their business before the Court, we’d have something to say about that. Not here. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
If another country had given its judicial selection over to a private, partisan group, while that partisan group was taking massive anonymous private donations, we’d have something to say about the obvious dangers of that. Not here. — PolitiTweet.org

Unfortunately, this law school faculty-heavy commission failed to accomplish even the opening “issue-spotting” work taught in first year in law school. — PolitiTweet.org

The Commission has accomplished its job of killing time for the Biden Administration while avoiding any controversy or impact. https://t.co/1xbj8O4GMX — PolitiTweet.org

As I sat in the EPW hearing on the wildlife bill I cosponsored, I was reminded of this graph showing how little wildlife is left. 95% of Earth’s mammal creatures are humans and our livestock. https://t.co/TJksfXSltg — PolitiTweet.org

I’m pleased the Treasury process is under way to require that corporations report their true owners. This rulemaking implements my bipartisan legislation to crack down on American “shell“ corporations. We need a strong rule to curb money laundering, corruption & other mischief. — PolitiTweet.org

Very pleased to see Zachary Cunha confirmed by the Senate as U.S. Attorney for Rhode Island. I was proud to advocate on his behalf on the Judiciary Committee and on the floor tonight and I know he’ll do a fine job serving the people of RI. — PolitiTweet.org

I have been working across the aisle to harden our defenses against these threats, and it’s encouraging to see the Biden White House take this step. https://t.co/18IfQzk5zf — PolitiTweet.org

International kleptocrats and criminals hide enormous amounts of money in rule-of-law countries like the United States behind the same kind of secrecy used by domestic dark-money schemers. The solution is a lot more transparency. https://t.co/G2lbdr558K — PolitiTweet.org

For 56 years, the Voting Rights Act has strengthened our democracy and given people a voice in their government. I’m glad to see the Justice Department take action. https://t.co/vK2bLpd4lU — PolitiTweet.org

7% of children in Rhode Island don’t get enough to eat. The Build Back Better Act is going to help over 75,000 kids in RI get food over the summer, when school cafeterias aren’t there to fill the gaps. — PolitiTweet.org

Japan launched its attack on Pearl Harbor 80 years ago today, launching my father and uncle into WWII. My uncle George was killed and is remembered in front of Newport City Hall. My father survived and dedicated the rest of his life to his country’s service. — PolitiTweet.org

Electric vehicle production is ramping up, and the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is going to help Rhode Island meet the demand for charging stations. That’s great news for drivers, auto manufacturers and workers, and the environment. https://t.co/qyhJfv3R5n — PolitiTweet.org

Fred was a decent, thoughtful and smart man, who regularly gave the Page’s attention to climate and environment. I admired him and liked him and am stunned to hear the sad news. https://t.co/EfmGamuohh — PolitiTweet.org

Kleptocrats combine corruption and brutality at home with disinformation and disruption abroad. It’s time for rule-of-law nations to muster a global defense. https://t.co/yIb7x9OgdE — PolitiTweet.org
