The transcripts, and the “body english” in the room, show Clark was not much respected by DOJ colleagues, which begs the question who put him up to this scheme. https://t.co/ncWM8QtHXC — PolitiTweet.org

The district court confirms what we all knew—Texas’s bounty hunting scheme deprives women of a constitutional right, and cannot stand. https://t.co/LBNVQyANrF — PolitiTweet.org

That last one was a bad decade for reefs. The next two decades will be worse ones. https://t.co/GUax7E6MpM — PolitiTweet.org

It's going to be a question for historians whether Mitch McConnell is a sock puppet who is doing what he's told by a very well-funded dark money operation, or the evil genius that people sometimes fear. https://t.co/Lfdq8bsR0L — PolitiTweet.org

Whole separate question the crooked political operation that protects this sleazy subsidy. For that kind of money you can rent an entire political party. So they did. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
This is why carbon pollution fees and methane leakage fees are essential. Leaving this subsidy running while trying to solve climate is like leaving the tap running while trying to solve your flooding bathtub. https://t.co/pBLZyRqCcT — PolitiTweet.org

Mitch folded and we have until December to do Build Back Better. And we will. — PolitiTweet.org

A judge goes out of bounds to attack the media for going out of bounds, when robust debate challenging public institutions’ behavior is actually the media’s job. Plus in this case the challenge is well founded in the evidence. https://t.co/ixvEik02mJ — PolitiTweet.org

Considering how dishonest, anti-climate and pro-polluter this all is, you wonder why we tolerate corporations dominating our politics. #FoundersWouldBarf. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Notice how CEOs never switched on this apparatus when they “supported” fees on GHGs. Notice how fast they switched it on to oppose now that it’s real. Do the math. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Lobbyists and business groups “are working in overdrive” against my proposed pollution pricing to cut down on carbon emissions. The Swamp vs. The Future — choose the future. Have my back. https://t.co/9xGoBLhFqz — PolitiTweet.org

We can do better. And we will. Methane. Carbon. Plastics. If we don’t get sabotaged by our own side. https://t.co/HJiZBgQW7n — PolitiTweet.org

Rhode Island organizations like @ricadv, @sojournerri, and @dayoneri do vital work in service of victims of domestic violence. Reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act will help them do even more, so let’s get it done. https://t.co/9c3Bav6JDg — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you, Paul Krugman, for pointing out how very non-serious “Very Serious People” are about climate proposals. https://t.co/uyKUEv5RkC — PolitiTweet.org

Do the dark money forces who prop up McConnell actually want a default? Creates chaos under Biden; they survive well as creepy billionaires; out of ashes they can build their new oligarchy. Normal people don’t think this way, but are the big creepy dark-money donors normal? — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
BTW: When we finally got some transparency into U.S. shell corporation mischief, we’d had to fight through first U.S. Chamber, then American Bar Association, then NFIB, teed up in sequence to oppose transparency. I’d love the backstory on who orchestrated that! — PolitiTweet.org

The NRA ran a sneaky campaign coordination scheme for years, while the FEC ignored complaints and enabled their shady dealings. I went after the NRA and its front groups back in 2019, and I'm glad to hear that the FEC has been forced to pay attention. https://t.co/zFxFAjQXbl — PolitiTweet.org

It helps when his whole party is dancing to the tune of a handful of creepy right-wing billionaires who fund them all; there’s no mixed signals problem because it all comes from central command. https://t.co/ukDvR0DD7d — PolitiTweet.org

Polluters are trying to sink my REDUCE Act, so I’m here to lay out the facts. Check back tomorrow for another video debunking plastic industry myths. https://t.co/gbbvXLEria — PolitiTweet.org

As lobbyists and trade groups gang up on it, thank you Washington Post for full editorial board support for my plastics pollution fee. https://t.co/OQDm67kwCi — PolitiTweet.org

I'm fighting to pass my Comprehensive Addiction & Recovery Act 3.0, to extend funding to the dedicated Americans fighting youth substance use and supporting those in recovery. To mark National Youth Substance Use #PreventionMonth this month, let’s get this legislation passed. — PolitiTweet.org

Corporate America is saving its real political effort, through its immensely powerful trade associations, for the usual anti-tax, anti-consumer, deregulatory self-dealing that’s always been the real priority. Not climate. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Or compare BankofAmerica climate talk with American Bankers Association activity, or Travelers talk with any of their many insurance associations’ activity. None of the major corporate trade associations are engaged on climate in a positive way. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
It’s actually worse. Big companies like @Disney back “worst climate obstructor” #ChamberofCarbon while keeping their trade associations idle or worse on climate. Compare Coke & Pepsi climate talk with American Beverage Association climate activity. https://t.co/Vf30e1047K — PolitiTweet.org
