The @nytimes gets a False on this one. This tweet neither says nor implies “not at all.” Use of the present tense is generally accepted to mean “now.” — PolitiTweet.org

The high cost and poor outcomes of American health care is a problem we will examine in the Budget Committee. https://t.co/NVzMjM78Iq https://t.co/OX2a5A89td — PolitiTweet.org

This headline says a lot. 1. They can’t agree. 2. They probably don’t have the votes among House Rs. 3. They know the public will hate it. 4. They’re doing the bidding of creepy billionaires, hence 3. https://t.co/NGUpDJE5Ob — PolitiTweet.org

I’m tired of hearing that Big Oil “smashed” more profit records while hard-working folks pay the price – literally. Soon, I’ll be reintroducing my Big Oil Windfall Profits Tax to hold these price gougers accountable. Who's with me? https://t.co/7c9jzc2DQ5 — PolitiTweet.org

MAGA Republicans in Florida and beyond have attempted to rewrite history to censor Black stories. It’s more important than ever to ensure Black voices are heard, and to teach even grim chapters in our nation’s history. — PolitiTweet.org

From Dr. MLK Jr., Rosa Parks, and Rep. John Lewis to Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, President Barack Obama, and VP Kamala Harris, Black leaders have shaped America. This month, we recommit to the pursuit of equal justice. — PolitiTweet.org

When I was in Kyiv, I pledged to hold Russian war criminals accountable for the terror they’ve caused in Ukraine. Great to meet with @AndriyKostinUa, @OMarkarova, and @SenBlumenthal back in DC to keep up the pressure on this crucial issue. https://t.co/xbJPnpupCA — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans’ dirty little secret: “the real problem isn’t America’s growing federal budget deficit. It’s the decline in tax revenue from America’s wealthy combined with growing interest payments to them.” Republicans did that, for their big donors. https://t.co/7gWUI2fKpH — PolitiTweet.org

While you were robbed blind at the pump this year (and GOP blamed Biden), Exxon made $55,700,000,000 in profits. Over $1 billion per week. $152,600,000 per day. $1,766.24 per *second.* Congress should heed POTUS’s call and pass my bill to claw back Big Oil’s excess profits. — PolitiTweet.org

“Respondeat superior” does exactly that, and it’s already mostly the law of the land, and it’s so well established in the law it’s in Latin! There’s a safe and familiar path. — PolitiTweet.org

7. Leaving out how or whether justices were interviewed was a stunning gap. They ultimately had to backfill, which they did very vaguely, but why the flinch in the first place? Are the justices made of spun sugar and vulnerable to breakage? — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
6. Despite failing to identify a suspect, the Court suggests a motive — “attempt at protest” — that imputes the leak to the liberal chambers. Real investigations don’t do that. Just as likely, it came from other chambers with the motive to pin down soft votes. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
5. It is not clear that records were kept of statements of the justices. Investigation 101 is to take down witness statements (a) so there is no question later about what was said and (b) so any wrongfully false statements can be prosecuted. That’s SOP. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
4. It is not clear that all suspects were interviewed. What was the undisclosed “iterative” process with the justices? It does not sound like an investigative interview when the subject is asking questions. — PolitiTweet.org

3. Chertoff is riddled with disqualifying conflicts of interest that a real investigation would avoid (served with Alito, works for Court). — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
2. I’ve never seen an investigation that had a third party riding along in a sidecar (Chertoff) to say it was a good investigation. Weird. — PolitiTweet.org

1. The Marshal office of the Court has limited investigative experience and the Court failed to bring in law enforcement agencies despite suggesting laws were broken. — PolitiTweet.org

Red flags are flying about the SCOTUS “investigation” into the Alito draft opinion leak. Lots of things differentiate this from a real investigation. Here are some: — PolitiTweet.org

All the complainers are funded by fossil fuel; all the complaints about “wokeness” and “ESG” boil down to fossil fuel emissions risk reporting. It’s a political maneuver, a performance, just as fake as the climate denial it serves. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Let’s be clear here: long-forecast dangers of climate change are now so real as to enter the “due diligence” horizon, so fossil fuel stooges are trying to bend and break due diligence. https://t.co/Wrq3Ozklk0 — PolitiTweet.org
