They are right. And the worst insiders are the fossil fuel scoundrels. — PolitiTweet.org

Recent poll shows 70% of Americans “angry because our political system seems to only be working for the insiders with money and power, like those on Wall Street or in Washington, rather than it working to help everyday people get ahead." https://t.co/2wfmhjmreD — PolitiTweet.org

Why would auto companies negotiate with California? Because Trumpster negotiations got hijacked by @MarathonPetroCo et al, who want crappy cars that burn more gas. https://t.co/ydXk7l0ccU — PolitiTweet.org

"Koch...helped funnel billions into climate-change-denying organizations for decades. His motivation wasn’t a mystery: He did it because he was greedy…His family originally made its money in oil and gas, and Koch Industries...is one of the biggest polluters in the U.S." — PolitiTweet.org

We live in the world that David Koch helped build, and it is on fire, writes @onesarahjones https://t.co/OAuGxTaIW4

While we’re dazzled by Trump’s theatrics, this remorseless apparatus designed to protect pollution and weaken the U.S. government quietly tightens its grip on our politics, our news and our Court. Dark money is poisoning our country. https://t.co/ue3j8Hsf43 — PolitiTweet.org

"When we purposefully try to eliminate climate change from the endangered species discussion, it's like excluding cancer or heart disease from a conversation about public health. It's ludicrous. In fact, it's beyond ludicrous.” — PolitiTweet.org

From the outdoors: ”climate change is the single greatest threat to our hunting and fishing, as well as to other popular outdoor pursuits like camping, boating, hiking, biking and skiing." https://t.co/8ukdvN00PB — PolitiTweet.org

In case anyone was confused by Brian’s tweet, I’ll repeat: The Amazon is on fire. We are losing our biggest rainforest and one of our most important buffers against the climate crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

The Amazon is literally on fire. Again, the Amazon is on fire.

Watched the show “Chernobyl” in last few days — great show and allegory for climate change, the slo-mo Chernobyl of our era. Lies versus truth is an eternal struggle. https://t.co/ApMrq0SY7Z — PolitiTweet.org

Rhode Island lost a great man today. Mike Van Leesten was a community and business leader dedicated to advocating for underserved communities. He brought passion to everything he did, and decency and dignity to how he did it. Oh, I will miss him. Many will. — PolitiTweet.org

It could be this. Or it could be that a vast industry with billions at stake for decades ran a vast apparatus to lie about the science, blockade the politics, and hide that it was them. https://t.co/M7OKzetLe7 — PolitiTweet.org

@DrAndreaDutton @MichaelEMann It’s all the climate action the fossil fuel industry will tolerate. That should not be the test. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Climate scientists @DrAndreaDutton and @MichaelEMann call out "a dangerous, more subversive 'softer' form of climate denialism" that seeks "innovation" while blocking the economics that would support innovation, and "adaptation" without admitting what we have to adapt to. — PolitiTweet.org

And yet @exxonmobil told its shareholders that the rate of renewables adoption would slow (as renewables became more price-competitive with fossil — go figure). https://t.co/U7RAiWJPLl — PolitiTweet.org

Grateful for the advocacy of the RI Chapter of @MomsDemand. The fight for gun safety is one worth having. https://t.co/SbYCOUwkRk — PolitiTweet.org

By 2100, the fossil fuel industry will be virtually gone, and historians will wonder why we killed our economy and damaged our natural environment to protect a crooked, dead industry. Clue: $$$ into Republican Party https://t.co/FWoglo8rvo — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Glad to join @DavidCicilline @JohnSarbanes @stopbigmoney to call for the Senate to act on our bill to rein in the dark special interest money poisoning our politics. Stopping the flow of dark money is the key to passing legislation on climate change, gun safety, & other issues. https://t.co/8xLpR3vEoz — PolitiTweet.org

True. One strike Republicans listed against our Judge Jack McConnell was that he wasn’t a corporate lawyer (he represented actual people instead); the @USChamber worked overtime to stop him. With support from our Greater @Provchamber, he was confirmed and is now doing a fine job. — PolitiTweet.org

My guess? It’s most of the party’s money. The party is now the political wing of the fossil fuel industry. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Republicans’ "stubborn denial of climate change" is less "baffling" when you understand how much money the fossil fuel industry floods into the Republican Party, both disclosed and undisclosed. https://t.co/icQW69urcI — PolitiTweet.org

It’s hard to break through our crazed news cycle, but this is a screaming alarm signal. The #AmazonRainforest plays a key role in combatting climate change and it is on fire. Please let’s not be too stupid to listen. https://t.co/zhwj9tItl1 — PolitiTweet.org

A touching way to celebrate John’s life. I have missed him tremendously, as a friend & as a political force. I'm sure this feeling is shared by Americans on both sides of the aisle. Thank you to the McCain family for your commitment to bringing people together. #ActsOfCivility — PolitiTweet.org

There is way too much anonymous money operating to influence our Court. The Court, the parties in cases, and the public all deserve better. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Why should anonymously funded organizations be allowed to file amicus curiae briefs (in other words, lobby the court) without disclosing who’s behind them? https://t.co/Lcbl8HztGU — PolitiTweet.org
