It’s getting harder for many Rhode Island families to put healthy food on the table and SNAP is one of the best ways to help. We should #BoostSNAPNow to meet the needs of Americans hurting from the ongoing pandemic and economic crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Two, Roberts’ strategy to “cloak a major blow to the left in what appears to be a small victory for it.” He plays the long game, leaning as hard for donor interests as he can without breaking his credibility. — PolitiTweet.org

Two key points from @Dahlialithwick. One, a focus on “those who work to pack the courts with conservatives in exchange for money” (it’s a machine). https://t.co/LrlDAz34SX — PolitiTweet.org

“States, cities and counties in dire straits have begun laying off and furloughing their limited staff, and even more devastation looms, as states reopen and cases surge.” But Mitch McConnell says no urgency. https://t.co/CmzD6y78Zh — PolitiTweet.org

Today is the 1st day of RI’s fiscal year. The state still can't plan a budget to boost the economy because there's no certainty the federal government will provide relief. The House already approved >$1 trillion for state/local aid & Senate Republicans are blocking a vote on it. — PolitiTweet.org

4⃣It gets better. The departing Republican goes immediately to work for Koch front group; revolving door spins her into Koch apparatus, the Death Star of dark money. https://t.co/t7QX46ynhB — PolitiTweet.org

3⃣Another FEC Republican promptly announces her resignation — so no quorum. Trump administration was immediately ready with new nominee, so resignation was obviously no surprise to Republicans. Mitch’s “quorum” scheme looks like a scam. https://t.co/ZTGQCMibrK — PolitiTweet.org

2⃣Mitch says he has to act without the Democrat so the FEC would have a quorum (like the ‘Prince of Dark Money’ cares about functioning FEC). — PolitiTweet.org

1⃣Mitch McConnell breaks precedent to confirm only a Republican to Federal Election Commission, no Democrat. https://t.co/kW4Did6me2 — PolitiTweet.org

Congress passed the CARES Act to help American workers and small businesses battling the coronavirus pandemic, not give billions in tax windfalls to Big Oil. Read my letter to major oil companies here: https://t.co/OzF80e08Pn — PolitiTweet.org

It makes no sense that the IRS is more likely to audit a low-income taxpayer than a millionaire. Like high earners paying lower tax rates, it’s upside down. https://t.co/XjZzvTkJwX — PolitiTweet.org

Do you suppose Trump knows that repealing ACA strips preexisting condition coverage? Do you suppose Trump knows he’s never filed a “Replace”? Do you suppose Trump cares? https://t.co/uIrVynb9PF — PolitiTweet.org

Oooh, the big donors are grumpy. They didn’t get the results they paid for, in a few recent cases. Too bad... The big donors are also greedy — they did win eighty (80) partisan 5-4 decisions under Roberts. (Need I say eighty is a lot?) https://t.co/TJY1vFqLLW — PolitiTweet.org

Saying the right thing is fine; showing up in Congress to fight for it is what matters. No major corporation serious yet politically. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
In Congress, zero political effort for this idea so far from corporate America; forceful opposition still from corporate trade associations; fossil fuel industry obstruction apparatus running full steam. https://t.co/lmd6F0rIL8 — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Today’s victory for women should not obscure clouds on the horizon. Among the Court’s “conservatives,” Roberts alone respected precedent—and even he curtailed that precedent’s protections. Republican donor interests won’t be happy. Expect more lawsuits, and more pressure to come. — PolitiTweet.org

For the umpteenth time, @WSJopinion toadies for polluters; this time a climate-obstructing fossil fuel polluter & its flotilla of creepy front groups. Do you suppose a polluter can pull a handle & a bell rings, signaling WSJ to belch out this nonsense? https://t.co/G0NqSwWqvz — PolitiTweet.org

How about the eighty (yes, 80) partisan 5-4 victories Roberts has given to Republican donor interests?You want to know where the real booty and plunder is, look to those! — PolitiTweet.org

OK this is a great cartoon, but isn’t it funny that three bipartisan Court decisions go against Republican donor interests, and the right wing thinks of pirate raids? https://t.co/PjTreNVf7K — PolitiTweet.org

Once again, no mention that it’s eighty 5-4 partisan decisions, or that Republican donor interests won them all. No mention of all the dark money organizations enmiring the Court. If you overlook the Flood, you get a different Noah story. https://t.co/CJqumiSz0O — PolitiTweet.org
