I think it matters if an individual wrote $35 million dollars worth of checks to influence the makeup of our United States Supreme Court to know whether they had business before the Court. https://t.co/ebYpetRfxU — PolitiTweet.org

7 am shift done. Through this illegitimate Supreme Court nomination process, Republicans are tarnishing our federal judiciary. — PolitiTweet.org
Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer
Senate Democrats are taking over the floor all night to fight this sham process by Senate Republicans. We will not stop fighting.

Seriously? Cory Gardner went to the Senate Floor to talk about wildfires. With his environmental record and climate record that seems a bit ironic. Might want to check in on how doing nothing on climate affects wildfire risk. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats don’t just decry dark money. Democrats have over and over again sought to end it. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Had a debate on the Senate floor with a Republican who complained about the dark money flooding his state’s politics. It is a little bit rich to hear a litany of woes about dark money from the party that is responsible for dark money happening. https://t.co/WSZcLVvaaM — PolitiTweet.org

Last night, Republicans blocked @SenBlumenthal's effort to take up House-passed bills by saying Senate’s only business now should be discussing Judge Barrett; next Republican speaker talks about China, tries to call up a bill himself. Nice try, guys. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
I just went to the floor to push back against Republicans’ bad-faith attempt to limit congressional authority over the courts. As we speak, Republicans are trying to pack the Court with a Trump judge propped up by an enormous special-interest influence machine. Give me a break. — PolitiTweet.org

As gun violence ravages our country, the NRA pushes its crooked agenda to undercut gun safety measures in the courts. With @SenBlumenthal & @SenStabenow, I’m exposing the attack on our judiciary by right-wing special interests like the NRA. https://t.co/Zv7Ffs8ohV https://t.co/H8Cx9s9hAj — PolitiTweet.org

And here I am asking Gorsuch about the dark money, right-wing apparatus at work selecting justices, funding their campaigns, and ultimately bringing cases before them in court. This problem has been going on for years, it's time to wake up. https://t.co/TXbiiLazlC — PolitiTweet.org

I was concerned about @FedSoc's role in the judicial selection process back in 2018 when it was Kavanaugh up for a seat, too. https://t.co/JcozOvis39 — PolitiTweet.org

What really matters is who — and whose money — lurks behind the shaping of the Supreme Court, and #WhatsAtStake for all of us. This most recent nomination wasn't my first dark money rodeo. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we honor the 241 Americans and 9 Rhode Islanders lost in the 1983 Beirut bombing. We can’t hold our annual ceremony with one another this year, but I know we are all thinking of their service and sacrifice. — PolitiTweet.org

More @FedSoc dark money links; more questions about dark money court-packing by big influencers. The swamp deepens. https://t.co/q0lRTNJlYf — PolitiTweet.org

Small matter in the grand scheme, but I note that Barrett refused to answer my QFRs about administrative, not judicial, matters at the Court. That’s stretching the no comment rule outside its bounds. They don’t care; they know their donors have it greased. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump tells @60Minutes in footage he released that he wants to see the Supreme Court wipe out Obamacare. “I hope that they end it.”

Both Obergefell AND Hodges (plaintiff and defendant in the gay marriage case) oppose Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the Supreme Court. I mean, come ON. This vote should be delayed. https://t.co/FmNcexnDEs — PolitiTweet.org

As the Dean points out, (a) originalism is a lousy doctrine, and (b) originalism is a phony doctrine — a doctrine of convenience, regularly ignored by its supposed adherents. (That’s my summary.) https://t.co/erCxNNBgcP — PolitiTweet.org
