I can see why colleagues feel "anxious and adrift." Trump wants distinguished Senators to perform the political equivalent of dog tricks, to help him get out of real trouble of his own creation. https://t.co/0MKds5Hy9v — PolitiTweet.org

I am very sorry to hear that Senator Kay Hagan passed away this morning. She was a wonderful person, an excellent colleague, & a tireless advocate for the people of North Carolina. My heart goes out to Chip and their loved ones. https://t.co/lbYqXS064a — PolitiTweet.org

Fox and Fossil Fuel Friends would love to use "hypocrisy" gambit to winnow climate advocacy down to the few people with zero carbon footprint — and then make fun of them for being out of the mainstream. Nice try. Not buying it. https://t.co/AGr7ez73Pq — PolitiTweet.org

Fossil fuel polluters want to move state court cases to federal court, where they will argue federal courts don’t have jurisdiction and Congress is the proper forum, where they can continue their campaign of dark $$$, bullying and lies, and — end goal — block climate action. — PolitiTweet.org

John Kelly “totally unequipped to handle the genius of our great President." That said by White House spokesperson. Truly. Used to hearing that from dictatorships and banana republics. Not normal. — PolitiTweet.org

If as U.S. Attorney or Attorney General I got a decision like this, I’d make inquiries of the lawyers involved. The decision is scathing about DOJ arguments. Any chance House Republicans will care? Or back to same debunked theatrics? — PolitiTweet.org

Now this is what you want something called an algae bioreactor to look like. This device would use algae to sequester carbon and clean up our air. https://t.co/TDm9ET3AaX — PolitiTweet.org

This is a strong editorial on the truth of the House impeachment process. Republicans are inventing a process complaint, to have something to complain about, because they don’t care to defend the President’s conduct. https://t.co/mjXMHOfPb0 — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, climate change consequences could be “catastrophic and irreversible,” to quote Donald Trump’s full-page NYT ad in 2009. Hard to predict disruptions, but they happen. https://t.co/L9EifuSp2G — PolitiTweet.org
