We underestimated them and must upgrade our thinking and planning to include the prospect that they can outright win. — PolitiTweet.org

Ukraine is winning because of better tactics and anti-tank equipment, but also because in battle “the moral is to the physical as three is to one.” https://t.co/JsqP3eCfis — PolitiTweet.org

International criminals chose to use the United States as a safe haven for their loot - let's make them regret that decision. I'm pushing to streamline the asset seizure process for Russia's oligarchs so we can use their hoarded wealth to aid Ukraine. https://t.co/T56D0eQ48L — PolitiTweet.org

I am proud to have taken part in considering Judge Jackson’s historic nomination. She set a new bar for patience, courtesy, & dignity from a Supreme Court nominee. — PolitiTweet.org

In a word, the hunt for corrupt oligarch assets will be much more dynamic and energetic, and that is welcome and indeed overdue. — PolitiTweet.org

Good move by Biden administration announcing “initiative to share information about and coordinate responses related to evasive measures intended to undercut the effectiveness and impact of our joint sanctions actions.” — PolitiTweet.org

NATO has released an estimate that as many as 15,000 Russian soldiers have been killed in four weeks of war in Ukraine. Russia lost about 15,000 troops over 10 years in Afghanistan before its retreat. — PolitiTweet.org

And yet another voice joins the victory chorus — the very knowledgeable Anne Applebaum, who was a guest of our bipartisan Munich Security Conference delegation. “The goal has to be victory in Ukraine.” https://t.co/ZNlssq2Q60 — PolitiTweet.org

If you cannot accept the results of a free and fair democratic election, you have no grounds to criticize or evaluate a Supreme Court nominee. https://t.co/fU6aCeeWvF — PolitiTweet.org

In case you missed it, here’s the rundown I gave @JoyAnnReid on the dark money organizations that worked to capture our Supreme Court. https://t.co/mYhKseKryj — PolitiTweet.org

More news for the Ukraine victory chorus: “The Pentagon issued a statement yesterday that said the invading Russian army is on the verge, maybe a day or two, of completely running out of food and fuel. The statement went on to say that the Russians did not bring warm clothes. — PolitiTweet.org

Check out @InfluenceMap’s new report. @USChamber continues its climate obstruction despite claims to the contrary – time for #ChamberOfCarbon members to wake up. https://t.co/8omYgs2xmI — PolitiTweet.org

By the way, don’t blame your gas station. Often, they barely make money on gas, versus coffee and snacks. They too are on the receiving end of the exorbitant prices set by big corporations. — PolitiTweet.org

Big Oil could drop U.S. gas prices tomorrow; but Big Oil chooses not to, because it prefers to charge the exorbitant prices set by the international oil cartel and speculators, and pocket wild windfall profits. https://t.co/wWZNnSaoKd — PolitiTweet.org

Madeleine Albright was a trailblazing diplomat whose expertise took her from the United Nations to the helm of the State Department. She was a true public servant, and I was sorry to hear of her passing. — PolitiTweet.org

Even as a prosecutor, I’d be disturbed to have some of my showboating colleagues doing an actual sentencing, given the self-righteous demagoguery they’re displaying here. That’s precisely why they shouldn’t be judges, and Judge Jackson should be. — PolitiTweet.org
