A lot of the recent uptick in COVID-19 cases in RI is linked to just a few house parties where people were not following the rules. Please, be smart: wear a mask, keep gatherings small, and maintain social distance. Look out for one another. — PolitiTweet.org

It takes the Wall Street Journal editorial board to say it depoliticizes the judiciary to allow judges to be members of the organization that more than any other has politicized the judiciary. https://t.co/JBUskCfumM — PolitiTweet.org

“Average global temperature will likely warm anywhere from 4.1°F to 8.1°F (or 2.3°C to 4.5°C) if deforestation & the burning of fossil fuels continue at the current rate”— meaning if we keep listening to the fossil fuel industry & its crooked front groups. https://t.co/oC7TkHLggB — PolitiTweet.org

and if all elections are cancelled, then there would be no House members and dems would control the Senate, meaning... President @SenatorLeahy. I like the sound of that too. — PolitiTweet.org

If we take Trump up on his offer to postpone the presidential election, indeed if we postpone it past January 20, 2021, then by operation of the 20th Amendment the terms of both Trump and Pence expire, and @SpeakerPelosi, succeeds to the Presidency. — PolitiTweet.org

In Europe, “industry responds to policy and economics very fast,” says former BP CEO; in US, dark political money lets industry control Congress (Republican Party) and obstruct. That’s the difference. — PolitiTweet.org

We need every Rhode Islander to fill out the Census. The results will determine how much federal funding goes into RI’s schools, health care system, and infrastructure for years to come. If you haven’t yet, please take just a few minutes to #GetCounted. https://t.co/stOsfZi6dV — PolitiTweet.org

Of course it’s about outcomes — the last few decisions notwithstanding, we’re over 80 5-4 partisan decisions by the Roberts Five giving wins to big Republican donor interests. — PolitiTweet.org

The overlooked piece here is all the dark money behind Mr. Leo and Ms. Severino. Nor is it noted that they say it’s not about outcomes but the whole story is about outcomes. https://t.co/fGGIbmJ5IK — PolitiTweet.org

When do you suppose Texas delegation in Senate will start giving a red hot damn about this? (Hint: Fixing it requires crossing the fossil fuel industry.) https://t.co/Dx01VGs6Tm — PolitiTweet.org

This is good news. Mitch’s corporate negligence amnesty scheme had little to do with covid and much to do with donor maintenance. Stupid fight for Republicans to wreck the economy over. https://t.co/h5sQIuABVV — PolitiTweet.org

.@APIenergy, a trade association representing big oil & gas companies, has the slogan “We’re on it.” That’s a lie unless they mean on blocking all climate action in Congress. That unfortunately they are on, to the tune of millions in lobbying dollars. #TradeUp — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell has squandered two and a half months. Now, with millions of Americans pushed to the financial brink, Republicans have hastily slapped together another corporate welfare proposal that falls far short. https://t.co/FsVypRxUi7 — PolitiTweet.org

While The Federalist Society is trending, I’ll remind everyone that this is a group funded by dark money that has captured our judicial nomination process on behalf of their rich donors. Sorry, too late to get off the Trump train now. https://t.co/IMTNhLn9Mi — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans won’t lead (9 weeks of delay); they won’t follow (Pelosi set good example with HEROES Act); and they won’t get out of the way, creating this Trump/McConnell fiasco. https://t.co/UfXkHU5gsK — PolitiTweet.org

I’d add “don’t-look-behind-the-curtain-ism” (aka simple laziness, often) skewing press to overlook that climate denial is fake, propped up by phony front groups and fossil fuel money. That takes some effort to dig out, and so is often ignored when it’s the key salient fact. — PolitiTweet.org
