The Trump letter tries to dodge both executive privilege law and executive branch policy (per Reagan Memo). Non-assertion assertions of executive privilege are dubious even during a presidency; they’re frivolous from former presidents. https://t.co/tdpN6QLvYJ — PolitiTweet.org

Sad to learn about the passing of retired Chief Vincent Vespia Jr. Vin was a legend in our outstanding RI law enforcement community who was fearless in his pursuit of justice. My condolences to Vin’s wife, Judith-Ann, and their family. — PolitiTweet.org

Too many people just moved on from fake FBI Kavanaugh investigation; here a new film has done a real service. https://t.co/dwu9E2nlnG — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans are willing to blow up the economy and raise everyone’s costs over a debt limit we wouldn’t be hitting if Republicans/Trump didn’t cut taxes for the ultra-wealthy. And now they want everyone to pay a 30% sales tax? Come on. — PolitiTweet.org

CEOs should demand corporate climate political footprint statements — many will be horrified at what their own companies are up to, others will have to be accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s the solution: @EPA must write bold ambitious rules for coal and gas-fired power plants, new and old, requiring carbon capture and/or co-firing with zero-carbon hydrogen. https://t.co/1ygALUgiAp — PolitiTweet.org

I've said before that the admin needs to go “beast mode” on climate. Well, there’s an important new report out from @NRDC and @EvergreenAction looking at what that means for the power sector. Here’s the problem: The IRA alone isn’t enough to get us to our decarbonization goals. https://t.co/I8R8NPJPRu — PolitiTweet.org

Phil is one of my heroes, and helped me prepare the lead paint litigation I filed as attorney general. These are the risks we force on kids when we kowtow to the oil and plastics industries. https://t.co/34l14mpCyw — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenWarren does a good job here connecting our debt to the Republican penchant for doing favors for their rich donor elite, in the form of exceptional tax breaks ordinary mortals don’t enjoy. https://t.co/xx8pToQBM9 — PolitiTweet.org

Compare Democrats, who without a single Republican helping passed a minimum tax for corporations that often paid nothing while making billions. — PolitiTweet.org

In turn, corrupt tax codes that make office staff pay higher tax rates than their billionaire bosses are propped up by political influence of the billionaire elite. — PolitiTweet.org

Inequality is the result of a “bonanza of plunder” by the ultra-wealthy, with “successful tax avoidance … the strongest pillar propping up global inequality.” https://t.co/M4nkmRqJ7c — PolitiTweet.org

Had FBI followed investigative protocol and not farmed their work out to Trump White House politicos, we would not be reliving this. https://t.co/1VbtUtGMsx — PolitiTweet.org

There was a decades-long campaign to fill our courts with anti-choice judges determined to strip away fundamental freedoms. I will not stop fighting back against this effort to impose unpopular policies on millions of women who disagree. — PolitiTweet.org
