The #fossilfuel industry poisons public debate with this nonsense just as badly as it poisons atmosphere and ocean with its emissions. Evil crew. https://t.co/wqoc4fo7po — PolitiTweet.org

These are not chargeable as false statements because they were not made in the course of official proceedings, but nevertheless reveal a likely unprecedented trail of falsehood by an American President. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The report exposes an extraordinary number of false statements made by Trump and his circle. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
He did know he was the subject of a criminal obstruction investigation. There is a lot of contortion around the obstruction decision. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
It’s odd to refuse to charge the President or his circle because they were unaware of the illegality of their collusive conduct, & then protect him from obstruction charges on grounds of intent b/c he had committed no underlying Russia conspiracy crime, something he did not know. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Only fearful subordinates prevented his efforts at actual obstruction under criminal law. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The President’s conduct regarding the investigation manifestly violates any fealty to rule of law, & more closely resembles deliberate efforts to interfere & obstruct, akin to banana republic governance. — PolitiTweet.org

Unless you are up against a charging deadline, time is not ordinarily such a priority over accuracy and completeness as to the central element of the charge. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Concerns about delay as an excuse for not interviewing the President seem ill-founded, given the lengthy negotiations resulting in no subpoena & the value of accuracy and completeness in criminal investigations. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Despite the centrality of intent to this determination, the President was not subpoenaed or interviewed. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The report’s obstruction decision was influenced by the OLC policy that a sitting president cannot be indicted, a policy not tested in the judicial branch. Even thus, the President could not be exonerated. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The redacted report references 14 other investigations & includes over 400 redactions that signal ongoing investigative matters. The ongoing investigations reach very close to Trump and his circle, including right into his Trump Tower personal office, so clearly this is not over. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The report chronicles a sordid tale of low-life behavior, with Trump & his associates engaging in all manner of legally and ethically dubious behavior; & has so far produced 200 criminal charges, 37 indictments, & 8 convictions – including Donald Trump's former campaign manager. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The conduct is disgraceful and unpatriotic if not criminal. — PolitiTweet.org

Russia may have chosen our President. The Russian/Wikileaks influence campaign engaged with multiple Trump campaign personnel, including direct communication with Trump family; & Trump’s circle repeatedly engaged with Russia interests seeking political advantage in the race. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The redacted report details an alarming account of #RussianInterference in our elections — one of sufficient magnitude, touching 120 million Americans & involving massive thefts of campaign information, to have tipped the close election in Trump’s favor. — PolitiTweet.org

Bank president: it’s gonna take “carbon price” to solve climate. Bank lobbyists in Congress: [silence]. Bank $$$: investing in fossil fuel plants. Bank advocacy: support US Chamber and carbon price opponents. Alignment, please!!! Talk is cheap. — PolitiTweet.org

Stopped at the McCain statue in Hanoi that commemorates shooting him down. What he loved about the statue: it called him an “air pirate.” That put a twinkle in his eye. What annoyed him about the statue: it said he was #USAF, not NAVY! https://t.co/g0vVNYnzeJ — PolitiTweet.org

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Under Roberts, seventy-three 5-4 decisions helped big Republican donor interests. One of them, #CitizensUnited, makes #Lochner look good by comparison; another, #Janus, is more comparable. https://t.co/ezOCPalTpI — PolitiTweet.org

Plummeting #EV prices to render gas vehicles as “obsolete as flip phones.” (PS please don’t tell @SenSchumer flip phones are obsolete. He still thinks his is cool.) https://t.co/cd1nmQwLiq — PolitiTweet.org

"Facebook also now requires disclosure of who is paying for ads”? Not really: I asked #Zuckerberg this, and they don’t look behind the nominal buyer. If you’re up to no good, a shell corporation is super easy to hide behind. Zero real security. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m glad Microsoft will start advocating in Congress for good #climate policies. We need a lot more of that from the “good guys” to counter the evil advocacy by the fossil fuel industry. https://t.co/z07847gvgM — PolitiTweet.org
