If you’re hard pressed to find the boundary between fossil fuel industry & Republican Party, join the club. Also remember Pruitt letter ghostwritten by Devon Energy; Congressional delegation letters ghostwritten by @MarathonPetroCo. The beat goes on. https://t.co/tsUfbrJUMk — PolitiTweet.org

There is a rotten scheme loose in our country that began with #CitizensUnited. It’s funded by secret special interest money and promoted by fossil fuel & polluter mouthpieces like @WSJopinion. https://t.co/J8bCNi0dDU — PolitiTweet.org

To untangle the dark money web ensnaring our courts, I published an article in @HarvardJOL exploring corporate power and the network of trade associations, think tanks, front groups and political organizations that implement the covert scheme. https://t.co/ZW99PJkFBK — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans snuck tax giveaways for their millionaire & billionaire friends into the last CARES Act. That’s a swindle they must not repeat. I will fight any wasteful corporate tax breaks Republicans try to jam into the next relief bill. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Two $17+ million anonymous donations funded much of that. We deserve to know who that was and what business they have at the Court. The Judicial Ads Act will give Americans this transparency and accountability. https://t.co/odC2rdp849 — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
A decades-long effort by corporations & donors to rig the courts using dark money is working; they’ve won over 80 partisan, 5-4 decisions. Part of this scheme is campaign-style advertising by dark-money groups, which we saw used to defeat Garland & confirm Gorsuch & Kavanaugh. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
This story proves yet again something unspoken: the right wing wants outcomes from the judges it puts on courts; not principles, outcomes. And there is a huge dark-money operation designed to do exactly that — capture the courts and deliver the outcomes. https://t.co/ET2Zn6SbKZ — PolitiTweet.org

It’s getting harder for many Rhode Island families to put healthy food on the table and SNAP is one of the best ways to help. We should #BoostSNAPNow to meet the needs of Americans hurting from the ongoing pandemic and economic crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Two, Roberts’ strategy to “cloak a major blow to the left in what appears to be a small victory for it.” He plays the long game, leaning as hard for donor interests as he can without breaking his credibility. — PolitiTweet.org

Two key points from @Dahlialithwick. One, a focus on “those who work to pack the courts with conservatives in exchange for money” (it’s a machine). https://t.co/LrlDAz34SX — PolitiTweet.org

“States, cities and counties in dire straits have begun laying off and furloughing their limited staff, and even more devastation looms, as states reopen and cases surge.” But Mitch McConnell says no urgency. https://t.co/CmzD6y78Zh — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Today is the 1st day of RI’s fiscal year. The state still can't plan a budget to boost the economy because there's no certainty the federal government will provide relief. The House already approved >$1 trillion for state/local aid & Senate Republicans are blocking a vote on it. — PolitiTweet.org

4⃣It gets better. The departing Republican goes immediately to work for Koch front group; revolving door spins her into Koch apparatus, the Death Star of dark money. https://t.co/t7QX46ynhB — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
3⃣Another FEC Republican promptly announces her resignation — so no quorum. Trump administration was immediately ready with new nominee, so resignation was obviously no surprise to Republicans. Mitch’s “quorum” scheme looks like a scam. https://t.co/ZTGQCMibrK — PolitiTweet.org

2⃣Mitch says he has to act without the Democrat so the FEC would have a quorum (like the ‘Prince of Dark Money’ cares about functioning FEC). — PolitiTweet.org

1⃣Mitch McConnell breaks precedent to confirm only a Republican to Federal Election Commission, no Democrat. https://t.co/kW4Did6me2 — PolitiTweet.org

Congress passed the CARES Act to help American workers and small businesses battling the coronavirus pandemic, not give billions in tax windfalls to Big Oil. Read my letter to major oil companies here: https://t.co/OzF80e08Pn — PolitiTweet.org

It makes no sense that the IRS is more likely to audit a low-income taxpayer than a millionaire. Like high earners paying lower tax rates, it’s upside down. https://t.co/XjZzvTkJwX — PolitiTweet.org

Oooh, the big donors are grumpy. They didn’t get the results they paid for, in a few recent cases. Too bad... The big donors are also greedy — they did win eighty (80) partisan 5-4 decisions under Roberts. (Need I say eighty is a lot?) https://t.co/TJY1vFqLLW — PolitiTweet.org
