As the son, grandson, nephew and cousin of Foreign Service officers, may I endorse and echo Ambassador Yovanovitch’s powerful closing in her attached statement to Congress. Bravo, Madam Ambassador. https://t.co/RwwRRXXCy9 — PolitiTweet.org

The worst of it — anonymous “dark money” — powers the climate denial and obstruction that blockades the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Fossil fuel interests protect their “great fortunes .... from government action to make them internalize the damage they’re imposing on the world,” because “we have more private money in politics than any other advanced economy.” — PolitiTweet.org

What is the end game? Likely, House goes to court to enforce subpoenas. Likely, Trump appeals to Supreme Court. Ultimately, the end game is to count on ‘Roberts & The Boy-os’ for Bush v. Gore 2.0, a 5-4 political decision saving a Republican president. https://t.co/AvJykl3vm5 — PolitiTweet.org

“An @exxonmobil spokesperson said: ‘We believe climate change is a serious issue and it is going to take efforts by business, governments and consumers to make meaningful action. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is a global issue and requires global participation and actions.’” — PolitiTweet.org

Pick your favorite Rhode Island coastal spot. Dial in a Category 3 hurricane 5 years from now. (Not unreasonable to expect.). See what’s left. https://t.co/lZsvux4P5S — PolitiTweet.org

I remember on my climate trip to New Hampshire hearing that the state bird, the purple finch, was projected to lose its habitat in the Granite State and move north with the changing climate. https://t.co/HFJj3FuUPp — PolitiTweet.org

Obviously, I agree a carbon pollution fee is an essential part of protecting ourselves from increasing chaos in the climate and oceans. https://t.co/WcyVpwW7xe — PolitiTweet.org

Hoo boy, check out the dissenting judge here: Kavanaugh successor, @FedSoc stooge & @realDonaldTrump nominee Neomi Rao. This is why Trump is packing the courts with political hacks. If there were more on this panel, they’d have covered up for him. https://t.co/ROFT62EF0q — PolitiTweet.org

“Sorry. We’re still waiting for instructions from @MarathonPetroCo and the refiners.” Just like the decision to freeze fuel economy standards for cars and revoke California’s waiver, where it looks like Marathon captured the process. https://t.co/6sfT2o5ZUl — PolitiTweet.org

Cracks me up. McConnell says the same thing. Meanwhile they won’t give a hearing to stacks of legislation passed by House. The gravetenders of Senate #LegislativeGraveyard leaning on their shovels & talking about all the work they want to do... someday? https://t.co/27T5XYVCbk — PolitiTweet.org

Soon, we will be voting on whether extreme @realDonaldTrump judicial nominee Steven Menashi deserves a lifetime seat on the federal bench. The problem is… he refused to answer ANY of our questions, Republicans and Democrats alike. https://t.co/VsSSRLDYyv — PolitiTweet.org

Wonderful to have students from the Stone Soup Leadership Institute's Sustainable RI Youth Initiative join #EEODayRI last week. Young people who have gotten involved are changing the way older generations think about climate change & the environment. https://t.co/THfPqyZ3KX — PolitiTweet.org

What are odds Barr & Benczkowski let this proceed without interference? What are odds they let prosecutors "flip" these two on Giuliani? https://t.co/aCgqFw0Q3y — PolitiTweet.org

We are so innocent. To think this is even a question! 73 partisan 5-4 decisions under Roberts helped big Republican donor interests; half of them contrary to conservative judicial philosophies. It’s all about who wins (73-0), not principle. https://t.co/cxTXVqv0Zq — PolitiTweet.org

What is frustrating the hell out of me is that there is literally not ONE big American corporation that puts serious effort into getting anything done in Congress on climate change. Guess what? Republicans notice. https://t.co/WAferrWaox — PolitiTweet.org

No tweet could properly respond to this slumgullion of legal and constitutional nonsense, but can we point out that EVERY impeachment of an elected official undoes his election? If that were a problem, there could be no impeachments. https://t.co/qk55Dg6GU9 — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s the math on climate: "In rough monetary terms, delaying implementation by only 1 y costs society approximately $1 trillion… A 10-y delay causes an equivalent loss in the order of $10 trillion per year, approximately $100 trillion in total." Don’t buy fossil fuel lies. — PolitiTweet.org

Disappointing that WaPo would take dark-money courtpacker Severino at face value, without context or fact-checking. Nutshell version: "We captured this Court fair & square; how dare you call us on it!" 73 partisan 5-4 decisions are hard to explain, so they make stuff up. — PolitiTweet.org
