Americans are slashing carbon emissions & making manufacturing cleaner. A border adjustment can help us benefit from that. — PolitiTweet.org

The rotten Big Oil cartel is holding up the whole world, while trying to brainwash people that the solution is more oil. Can we truly be that stupid? https://t.co/y4ixnbH48k — PolitiTweet.org

Oh, dear. I’ve been sanctioned by a mass-murdering kleptocrat. — PolitiTweet.org

Angus and Josh raise an important question: how is it that across the entire national security establishment (not just the IC), there was no dissenting voice anywhere suggesting Ukraine might win? Why such a blind spot? How to fix that? https://t.co/ELJJDyCmHu — PolitiTweet.org

This week, I met with a group of Ukrainian writers & human rights defenders who experienced Russian’s brutal invasion firsthand. Thank you, @PENamerica, for facilitating this visit and defending free expression. https://t.co/59Xh6mENud — PolitiTweet.org

Smells like message-massaged masquerade to me. It’s not enough to “accelerate the energy transition,” particularly not in tandem with more fossil fuel; we need to avoid a looming full-on catastrophe, while we still can. https://t.co/dCYnO2j00I — PolitiTweet.org

Dark money spending for the 2022 election cycle already totals more than $115 million – I’d like to knock that number down to zero. Let’s pass my DISCLOSE Act to empower voters and bring big donors out of the shadows. https://t.co/bEHoApXq5U — PolitiTweet.org

Big corporations are pouncing on this moment to boost profits and enrich their buddies on Wall Street. It’s time to stop them from jacking up prices for working Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Fun visit with @AnchorToffee, Rhed’s Hot Sauce, and all the amazing food businesses set up at @FarmFreshRI Food Hub. I’m glad to support the work Farm Fresh does to get healthy food into the community by delivering $581k in federal funding to help complete its Harvest Kitchen. https://t.co/qS87TvE2B7 — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to announce that @universityofRI has been awarded funding from Sea Grant, DOE, and NOAA to advance the stakeholder engagement process for future offshore wind projects. This is important work for our fishing & coastal communities, and I’m glad to see it happen in RI. — PolitiTweet.org

Great news! Under @RichGlickFERC's leadership, @FERC has begun really important efforts, like looking at ways to build more transmission infrastructure. That will boost our resiliency to extreme weather and better serve American consumers. https://t.co/Fro1YbVx1a — PolitiTweet.org

You could knock a dollar off the price of gas tomorrow and the fossil fuel industry would still make money – that’s how grotesque their excess profits are. The industry is riding high on cartel prices, and it’s time to bring them back down to earth. https://t.co/71rO154xnq — PolitiTweet.org

Pretty astounding that the Department of Justice turns a blind eye to this, to abundant academic research documenting the fraud, to litigation under way all around the country, and to its own successful tobacco case — an obvious litigation template. https://t.co/vMkF2gmoaK — PolitiTweet.org

These stories are real. These programs are good. They lifted Rhode Island families. We need permanent child tax credit and robust child/elder care support. https://t.co/90U8opyKjt — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not just North Carolina. Rhode Island is losing homes to the sea, and if you go to StormTools you can see how much worse it’s going to get. https://t.co/6CVPzuJMLH — PolitiTweet.org

To say the Court is “conservative” misses the role of dark-money interests in packing the Court, their record of partisan wins at the Court, and the variance from “conservative” doctrine in so many of those wins. — PolitiTweet.org

Understanding what’s happening at the Court requires understanding the problem of “regulatory capture” (often called “agency capture”). — PolitiTweet.org

Unitary executive theory in the 5th Circuit ruling: https://t.co/jF41IXkfWK — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
This is what the Trump justices were appointed for. They auditioned for Senate Republicans & big conservative donors by writing fringe opinions like this one. They want to see radical doctrines accepted by the Court that Dark Money Built – and imposed on the American public. — PolitiTweet.org

Embracing this framework would grant a President nearly unchecked authority to use the government to do his political bidding. https://t.co/OFaaK07lKU — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
But the court didn’t stop there. Anticipating a Republican president, it weaponized another far-right legal doctrine that gained steam under Trump—the “unitary executive theory.” — PolitiTweet.org

That means environmental protections would go out the window. It means predatory behavior from lenders. It means an America where corporations can buck off regulations and make life worse for everybody who isn't a shareholder or a CEO. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
If these judges had their way, corporations & special interests would be free of most regulation by agencies with political independence & subject-matter expertise. Consumer safety & well-being would be an afterthought, beholden to the agenda of right-wing dark money groups. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals just used one of those hothouse theories to limit the SEC’s power to crack down on investment fraud. Known as the "non-delegation doctrine," it would gut public-interest regulations and make life in America look very different. — PolitiTweet.org
