Grateful to my colleagues @SenAmyKlobuchar @SenSanders @ChrisMurphyCT @MartinHeinrich @SenDuckworth for pushing back on Trump’s misinformation campaign around the 2020 election. Facts matter. https://t.co/tlcjHVyr5V https://t.co/oLwGDUMcxZ — PolitiTweet.org

The Republican party, through bizarre procedural practices, is jamming another nominee onto the Supreme Court. I joined @SenJeffMerkley and Senate Democrats on a new #CapturedCourts report about what this means for the environment. #WhatsAtStake https://t.co/xlZqv5zYS3 — PolitiTweet.org

And Republican AGs brought the anti-ACA lawsuit they’re rushing Barrett into. And the same person who sent the money picked the nominee. — PolitiTweet.org

Now we know how he thinks: quid pro quo. Whatever happened with Trump and @exxonmobil, we know that this pipeline billionaire gave a pro-Trump Super PAC $10 million. https://t.co/rc2CUiXNXO — PolitiTweet.org

An important investment in equality. Thank you, @RIFoundation. — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, the Supreme Court ruled that Trump and his anti-democratic cronies can cut off the Census process early, undermining a fundamental constitutional process and robbing Americans of services they rely on. #CourtsMatter — PolitiTweet.org

Here is Charles Fried, Solicitor General to Ronald Reagan, making my point about Roberts Court’s 5-4, partisan, precedent-wrecking decisions. Even he calls Citizens United “infamous.” Which it is, on many levels. https://t.co/xpu3wYChuA — PolitiTweet.org

#ChamberofCarbon just can’t help itself — and probably never will until it comes clean about its fossil fuel funding. Chamber member companies need to get serious. https://t.co/LFYaJjhpVH — PolitiTweet.org

21.1 million Americans will lose their health coverage if the Supreme Court strikes down the ACA. #WhatsAtStake — PolitiTweet.org

.@exxonmobil just can’t do honorable; lying is as much their product as oil. Sickening. Thanks @GeoffreySupran @NaomiOreskes for your work. https://t.co/DWsBog3EY0 — PolitiTweet.org

Says a lot about Trump; says a lot about Republican Senators. #SpinesofFoam https://t.co/F5zrdVeog4 — PolitiTweet.org

We are concerned about the ACA, Roe v. Wade, and gay marriage because of what Republican Senators have said in briefs and in public pledges, because of what Donald Trump has said, and because of what the GOP Party platform says. — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

Okay, this is mostly from the department of “If You Did Not Know This What Planet Were You On,” but nevertheless glad to hear a conservative Republican pointing it out. https://t.co/vhPyOV0Lla — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

There are a lot Rhode Islanders who depend on the ACA, who want autonomy over decisions about their body, & who are married or wish to be married to someone of the same sex. So Republicans can't say they want to undo those things and then criticize us for taking that seriously. https://t.co/c0QcEhi2m4 — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

The Republican Party platform calls for judges to reverse the ACA, overturn Roe v. Wage and undo gay marriage. We didn’t say that’s what your plan was, YOU said that’s what your plan was. And you said that you were going to do it through your judicial appointments. https://t.co/mJch34yaxA — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

Republicans shouldn’t think that they will have any credibility if the shoe is on the other foot to come to Democrats and say, “Yea I know you CAN do that, but you shouldn’t.” That credibility will die if they continue to proceed this way with this Supreme Court nomination. — PolitiTweet.org

While Trump was lying about the coronavirus being “very much under control” his administration was briefing big investors that the situation was worse. https://t.co/iN1uNKIVVI — PolitiTweet.org

In the case Oracle v. Google, Oracle gave up to $99K to a front group called the Internet Accountability Project. This group then filed a brief in the case without disclosing that Oracle had given it $99K. Isn't that something that the public & the Court ought to know? — PolitiTweet.org
