Mitch McConnell is right. We were there. It was a “violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power.” Trump and RNC notion that this was “legitimate political discourse” is a lie. https://t.co/mX6NR0wy8L — PolitiTweet.org

It’s big RI news that @RobertAWalshJr is retiring from @NEARhodeIsland. Few love the scrum of politics more than Bob, and few are better at it. I can’t wait for the next chapter. — PolitiTweet.org

Americans who have been harmed by corporations deserve justice, but a bankruptcy trick helps profitable companies dodge responsibility while their victims wait for compensation. Today’s hearing highlights these abuses and makes clear the need for reform. https://t.co/DjKvswjE9X — PolitiTweet.org

Once again, a Supreme Court all-Republican majority makes a political decision (against the district court’s factual findings) that helps the Republican Party and dilutes Black citizens’ voting power. This is getting old. https://t.co/b8EVuD5aLa — PolitiTweet.org

The Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Tax Credit can make a big difference to your budget, so don’t leave any money on the table. These credits were built to help Americans get ahead, and they're there for you when you need them. https://t.co/80SXwUSAaG — PolitiTweet.org

Never mind that there’s no path to safety without action in Congress and corporate America is AWOL or worse in Congress on climate legislation: major trade associations do nothing; “gorilla” Chamber of Commerce and others oppose. https://t.co/UZGotaNBVI — PolitiTweet.org

If Republicans care so much about dark money, they should join us and pass my DISCLOSE Act.  Transparency is way, way overdue. https://t.co/ArqB6Xth6e — PolitiTweet.org

The industry doesn’t just lie and pay politicians — fossil fuel companies also use trade associations and dark-money front groups to whip up opposition to climate legislation. They pull out all the stops. https://t.co/PUaAWERIHY — PolitiTweet.org

Easy to spot: significant unexplained difference between statewide vote and delegation make-up (i.e. 50/50 and 13-5). Plus trial discovery showed redistricting mischief in plain view. — PolitiTweet.org

Gerrymandering at its worst because Supreme Court at its worst said political gerrymandering cases were “non-justiciable” despite lower court cases finding “justiciability.” https://t.co/FzsuG733KE — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s the truth: dark-money court packing is a project by right-wing donors. It’s supercharged by Republican justices and defended by Republicans in the Senate. If you don’t support ending dark money, you’ve lost all credibility to complain about it. https://t.co/FIKsKHuWyM — PolitiTweet.org

The industry could fix this, without great expense, but while it’s free to pollute, why bother? They spend the money instead on blocking climate progress in Congress. https://t.co/dGGK4jVwMk — PolitiTweet.org

America needs solar panels for our clean energy transition, and tariffs are holding us back. I’m glad to see some restrictions eased, after my colleagues and I pushed for change, but we need to do more. The climate crisis doesn’t wait for anybody. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans created and defend dark money, then call us hypocrites when we play by their rules. They’d love it if we’d unilaterally disarm so they could pound us with dark money as they did for a decade. — PolitiTweet.org

Because God forbid the highly profitable fossil fuel industry should clean up its own mess. “Privatize profits; socialize costs” is corrupt business model. https://t.co/esKMqHumTW — PolitiTweet.org
