A rough analogy for how the fossil fuel industry occupied and ran the @USChamber on climate change: like the unfortunate bug, an invader (fossil fuel interests) controlled Chamber behavior. https://t.co/39iLA4N3QT — PolitiTweet.org

Investors representing $35 trillion in assets call for carbon pricing in this letter. But many of the companies in which they are invested are members of trade associations that block progress or are AWOL in Congress. https://t.co/3mIwiOctIg — PolitiTweet.org

These financial warnings are getting increasingly serious, so why are banks and insurers still so helpless at supporting climate action in Congress, and why still supporting worst obstructors of climate action, like #ChamberofCarbon? What’s up, guys? https://t.co/SSDVVgKWPP — PolitiTweet.org

Wow, really? Anyone who’s heard organized crime wiretaps would know how extremely damaging this summary transcript is. https://t.co/NYlhNiqSFK — PolitiTweet.org

Well done to these House Republicans! Where are the Republican Senators willing to do this? https://t.co/ESw76VNAit — PolitiTweet.org

Of course Roberts says there’s no politics at the Supreme Court, he has to; but he doesn’t explain the 73 partisan 5-4 decisions he orchestrated giving big wins to big Republican donor interests. You could take that pattern into a discrimination trial, and win. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve got the less high-end version of the Bolt and totally love it. Climbing into gas-powered vehicles feels like taking a step back in time in noise, weight, complication, cost and road response. Rotary phone to iPhone. https://t.co/d6WqwSWJ2r — PolitiTweet.org

C. Witness intimidation with Trump’s vague threats of executions? (Spies got gallows and firing squads.) Obviously that won’t happen, but it communicates a warning. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
B. No indication of leaks — it appears information was circulated through standard interagency process for presidential phone calls and legal channels like whistleblower path. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
A. Spies? Spies give information to foreign governments; this was information through regular and lawful channels within U.S. government. https://t.co/vZDj5DmIMB — PolitiTweet.org

That’s rich! Fossil fuel capture of @realDonaldTrump administration not enough for fossil fuel!! Industry complains about incompetence, but what do you expect when you insist on industry hacks who will make fixed decisions based on phony evidence? https://t.co/a7iAtjq2qg — PolitiTweet.org

Well, that didn’t take long. Maybe a liddle phone call came from the White House . . . ? https://t.co/sAbsM2ToLL — PolitiTweet.org

Barr has a lot of questions to answer about his conduct. https://t.co/CwmMmCgb14 — PolitiTweet.org

“Did he recall the ambassador to Ukraine at the request of Rudolph W. Giuliani, Trump or others mixed up in this scheme?” — PolitiTweet.org

More questions for Secretary of State Mike Pompeo: “Did he know that two diplomats were trying to help Ukraine manage @realDonaldTrump’s illegal conduct?” https://t.co/ErKnkPm7cJ — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
What retribution would she be “going through”? What will SecState do about this threat? What message is being sent to the career service by Pompeo’s inaction? — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
What does Pompeo have to say about @realDonaldTrump’s threat that a career foreign service officer, lately our ambassador to Ukraine, is “going to go through some things” at the hands of Giuliani and Barr, who will “get to the bottom of”… whatever? https://t.co/lHEL5V6pVh — PolitiTweet.org

I’m taking part in New York Climate Week with my colleagues on the @SenDemsClimate Committee. Seeing the energy and dedication of the young climate activists assembled gives me hope. We’re continuing to battle forward. #ActOnClimate https://t.co/QBd67LRe5y — PolitiTweet.org

Its dirty hands still work under the table against climate action, whatever its CEOs may say at cocktail parties. — PolitiTweet.org

The danger from the oil & gas industry is less from investments in new fossil fuel extraction (those probably will end up stranded) than from investments in front groups that propagate climate denial & enforce political obstruction of climate legislation. https://t.co/PO0uGmO4Oo — PolitiTweet.org

When Marcia Reback was an adversary, she was a daunting and respected adversary. When she was a friend, she was a fierce and loyal friend. We have lost a great Rhode Islander. — PolitiTweet.org

The IPCC report shows two bitter truths: our oceans are in crisis; and we are nearly out of time to prevent catastrophic changes to them. We must heed the oceans’ warnings. Oceans don’t lie; polluters do. https://t.co/NZYAeILkCm — PolitiTweet.org

But is there any difference left between the fossil fuel industry and the Republican Party? Or is the Republican Party like that farmer guy in Men in Black whose empty skin is fully occupied by the alien? — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The Republican Party needs to tell the fossil fuel industry that it has fed at the public trough long enough, and needs to clean up its act. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the summary section of the IPCC oceans report. It is a stern warning of what the facts are telling us about our oceans and frozen areas. https://t.co/M7TbOPi8eS — PolitiTweet.org

Bad enough for Barr that Trump has such confidence Barr would be his guy in an effort to smear Bidens using foreign country investigation. And Trump dropped Barr’s name repeatedly in a call he said he knew lots of people would be listening in on. — PolitiTweet.org
