Wanna know where Big Oil really is on getting something done on climate? Money talks; BS walks. https://t.co/oEjnz3HQXP — PolitiTweet.org

He even went into the Belly of the Beast and spoke to a joint session of Congress; but against fossil fuel money the words of the Pontiff had no effect. https://t.co/NAn4ppE9vy — PolitiTweet.org

Don’t whine; 80 partisan 5-4 wins is a pretty good run. https://t.co/VxtHuHrbWv — PolitiTweet.org

The detailed allegations of widespread fraud within the NRA are pretty astounding. After all the dirt they’ve done using dark money to block gun laws, it’s a bit like taking down Capone for tax evasion. But it is what it is. Bravo, AG. — PolitiTweet.org

Well, yes, but on the other hand climate action could destroy ~50% or more of the Republican Party’s funding (from fossil fuel donors, if that needs explanation). https://t.co/3jYla5PXQS — PolitiTweet.org

The new FishLine app connects customers looking for fresh local seafood directly with RI fishermen. A great idea for supporting our fishing industry, which has taken a big hit during the pandemic. https://t.co/sjYFMO5ZVp — PolitiTweet.org

Astounding to watch my Republican colleagues say we don’t feel urgency (Mitch: no “urgency”) and are too partisan (Mitch bill: no Democrats). Projection, I think it’s called. Nine weeks, they dawdled. — PolitiTweet.org

Look at that. Close off the 5-4 partisan decisions spigot (over 80 of them) for a bit, and popularity goes up! As for the big Republican donor interests who won those 80 cases and are out to capture the Court, they get grumpy, but America seems to approve. https://t.co/kH9JWyFckO — PolitiTweet.org

A lot of work went into Rhode Island being number three for healthcare in the country; behind only Massachusetts (Mass General; Boston Children’s, 128 research corridor, etc.) and Minnesota (Mayo Clinic). Good company! Well done. https://t.co/YUt04kLEUi — PolitiTweet.org

It seems impossible, but Republicans can’t run the Postal Service — an agency in the US Constitution. How can they manage a pandemic when they can’t run a post office? https://t.co/79tOM0aCBR — PolitiTweet.org

And I should perhaps confess here and now to the full extent of my conspiracy with Judge McConnell on this question, which is to have laughed together about the imaginary conspiracy the editorial page has confected about us. — PolitiTweet.org

Two months of ignoring the HEROES Act; Republicans still don’t know what they want; Republican Senators still divided; Trump a mess, tweeting and golfing; McConnell not even attending negotiations. https://t.co/XVB1N9MnA0 — PolitiTweet.org
