For instance, are there intermediaries, and is this statement only technically true, because this was orchestrated through flunkies? — PolitiTweet.org

"... and Mr. Barr has not spoken with Mr. Giuliani about the president’s phone call ‘or anything relating to Ukraine,’ a Justice Department spokeswoman, Kerri Kupec, said in a statement.” — PolitiTweet.org

It will be interesting to see how closely this DOJ statement has to be parsed: @nytimes: “Mr. Trump has not asked Mr. Barr to contact Ukraine for any reason, Mr. Barr has not communicated with Ukraine on any topic, ..." https://t.co/ZNAKNGM7Rc — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans want to take away health care from people with pre-existing conditions; Democrats want to protect health care for people with pre-existing conditions. It’s that simple. I’m proud to support this resolution. https://t.co/4X03ZuaoUQ — PolitiTweet.org

Sounds like a mob transcript. ‘We’re very good to you, you not so much to us, so I need a favor, I need you to work with my guys, to go after Biden, so work with my guys who will call.’ Does it get more obvious? — PolitiTweet.org

4. cont. ZELENSKY “I stayed at the Trump Hotel. .... [W]e will be very serious about the case and the investigation.” TRUMP “I will tell Rudy and Attorney General Barr to call.” — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
4. The wrap-up: TRUMP “I will have Mr. Giuliani give you a call and I am also going to have Attorney General Barr call and we will get to the bottom of it.” — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
3. cont. ZELENSKY “[T]he next prosecutor general will be 100% my person, my candidate. ... [I]f you have any additional information that you can provide to us, it would be very helpful to the investigation...” — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
3. The topic: TRUMP “There’s a lot of talk about Biden’s son, that Biden stopped the prosecution... whatever you can do with the Attorney General would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it... it sounds horrible to me.” — PolitiTweet.org

2. cont. ZELENSKY “We are willing to open a new page of cooperation. [W]e will meet once [Giuliani] comes to Ukraine. ... [Y]ou have nobody but friends around us.” — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
2. The proposal: TRUMP “I would like you to do us a favor though.... I would like to have the Attorney General call you.... I would like [Giuliani] to call you. I will ask him to call you along with the Attorney General.” — PolitiTweet.org

1. The set-up: TRUMP “[W]e do a lot for Ukraine. ... [T]he United States has been very very good to Ukraine. I wouldn’t say it’s reciprocal ... but the United States has been very good to Ukraine.” ZELENSKY “Yes you are absolutely right.” — PolitiTweet.org

A. @tomfriedman has a really good point. B. Add the corruption issue of polluter dark money, and it becomes even more salient to voters. https://t.co/KKgFrX57PI — PolitiTweet.org

How about @exxonmobil privately making investments on climate science it publicly tried to deny? — PolitiTweet.org

How about @realDonaldTrump writing in 2009 that climate science was “irrefutable” and boded “catastrophic and irreversible” consequences? — PolitiTweet.org

This is possibly just the Chamber greenwashing and playing for time, and this is possibly the most important opening we have seen to serious climate legislation. Time will tell. https://t.co/NhNnzWC2zT — PolitiTweet.org

So much for an unbiased jury. Some would say the evidence should be gathered and reviewed first. https://t.co/c5j87OOa3C — PolitiTweet.org

Reminds me of the lawyers’ joke: "Those weren’t your cabbages. And if they were, my client’s goat didn’t eat them. And if it did eat them, that’s not my client’s goat. And if it’s my client’s goat, ... that goat was insane!" There’s such a thing as too many explanations. — PolitiTweet.org

And here it is, happening in real time: Republicans scarfing up fossil fuel money while denying and obstructing progress on climate change. There’s a word for that. https://t.co/TXcZt6nmr2 — PolitiTweet.org

Department of Low Bars: "a Democratic Party Remarkably Aligned with Science." Says a lot about the capture of the Republican Party by lying polluters that this is even a thing. https://t.co/5Le9GmaD5z — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell will yield on spending money on voting machines, while protecting the castle keep: dark money channels that can be used by foreign interests, but are necessary for big Republican donor interests to manipulate government. Democrats should not be complicit. — PolitiTweet.org

Don’t get excited. It’s strategic retreat, more than surrender. https://t.co/23UE9yvWGz — PolitiTweet.org
