Great piece from @joshrogin on the importance of shutting down the international traffic in clandestine, often criminal, funds. We give aid and comfort to our enemies by letting them shelter their money in U.S. hidey-holes. Essential to clean that up. https://t.co/ATnSNUScdq — PolitiTweet.org

All the more reason to follow my advice and set up robust domestic and international enforcement task forces to “find, fix and finish” the methane leaks. https://t.co/yybQMCF4tE — PolitiTweet.org

Great news! @CITES has decided to move forward with a proposal to protect vulnerable shark species. Read my letter with @MartinHeinrich @SenBooker and @SenBrianSchatz on why this effort is so important for the health of our oceans: — PolitiTweet.org

People like Sue don’t get the headlines, but they make the headlines possible. Bravo. https://t.co/D6jZGDjtBx — PolitiTweet.org

A big gala at COP27 was funded by climate obstructor U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and COP had hundreds of fossil fuel lobbyists. It’s bad. https://t.co/xq5txSanSP — PolitiTweet.org

If you have fifteen minutes, Nancy Pelosi’s speech is a thing of beauty — personal, powerful and patriotic. https://t.co/ht0084x9dQ — PolitiTweet.org

While Big Oil swims in immense profits, it fails to fund developing-world damage & clean energy transition, & even blocks Congress’s efforts to help! This responsibility lies squarely on the fossil fuel industry’s doorstep — where greed & cruelty combine. https://t.co/yoJFvla59w https://t.co/LMT9UI0PLo — PolitiTweet.org

Today is World Pancreatic Cancer Day, a day to honor the Americans fighting this heartbreaking disease. The patients and families battling pancreatic cancer need our support, which is why I'm leading efforts here in Congress to get us closer to a cure. #PanCANawareness https://t.co/A4xsGiBAk8 — PolitiTweet.org

I keep this picture of @SpeakerPelosi at my desk. She may be stepping down but the picture stays. https://t.co/yaWTjI2XzA — PolitiTweet.org

History will remember the wise and masterful @SpeakerPelosi as one of the most effective legislators Congress has ever seen. Thank you, Madame Speaker. — PolitiTweet.org

If you want to know why Republicans are terrible on climate change despite all its evidence and actuality, consider how much fossil fuel money staved off a far worse day for MAGA, anti-freedom, Social-Security-threatening, climate-denying Republicans. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Looking at the two together, it appears that Republicans dominated Democrats in outside/dark money $885M (685 + 200) to $575M (480 + 95), a $310 million spending advantage for Republicans. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Looking at “aligned” 501(c)(4) dark money groups (according to another Nov. 4 OpenSecrets article), it looks like Rs totaled around $200M and Ds totaled around $95M. https://t.co/vl2IrgG325 — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Reading OpenSecrets graph of the top 10 outside spenders from a Nov. 4 article, it looks like Rs totaled $685M in “outside” spending through party groups, and Ds totaled around $480M. https://t.co/j7fwjZoP63 — PolitiTweet.org

I agree, no corporate tax breaks without renewing the boost to the Child Tax Credit. Corporations are doing just fine, let’s put families first. — PolitiTweet.org
Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet
In 2017, large companies received a tax break worth over $49B. Now, corporate lobbyists are fighting to extend it.… https://t.co/5V0OYJ9ASx
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Amid all the close-fought AZ election battles, voters came out better than 2-1 — despite a barrage of dark-money opposition — to vote an end to dark money in their elections. Shows how much voters hate this crap. It’s corrupting, and voters know it. https://t.co/bqFgPD8R5x — PolitiTweet.org

A great many groups could bring such lawsuits — who knows, even DeSantis front groups! Let the games begin. — PolitiTweet.org

He does not do well under oath. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The record supporting such actions is ready-made from impeachment and 1/6 committee work. Moreover, in civil matters Trump can be called to testify under oath, and if he asserts his Fifth Amendment rights, the court can draw an “adverse inference” against him. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Something to consider: there is the prospect of litigation in every state in which Trump files, based on lawsuits to disqualify him via the Fourteenth Amendment bar on insurrectionists running for office. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m on my way to the Senate floor for my 286th Time to Wake Up speech. This time, I report back from COP27 with a sense of pride that we're finally getting going on climate action – but also a sense of the awesome difficulty of the task ahead. Tune in soon. — PolitiTweet.org

One eerie thing at COP was climate-obstructing #ChamberofCarbon hosting the big dinner, with oil/gas services company speaker preceding John Kerry. 🤨 — PolitiTweet.org

Let me make a guess: the money was fossil-fuel related, and will buy continued Republican obstruction of obviously necessary climate measures. That’s the pattern. — PolitiTweet.org

This is how democracy gets corroded by secret special influence — in roughly half-billion $ slugs. Who was it, and what did they buy? https://t.co/UbUBKFytmd — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago, @POTUS signed the bipartisan IIJA that is bringing nearly $2.5B to RI to repair our transportation and water infrastructure, upgrade public transit, improve coastal resiliency, & so much more. All that means good-paying jobs & a retooled economy for the years ahead. — PolitiTweet.org

Bad gets worse: Thomas first failed to recuse because he didn’t know of his wife’s activities, an untested factual assertion the Chief Justice has failed to examine. Now Thomas knows because it’s public info and still fails to recuse. This has a reek. https://t.co/q7d5XKlXZg — PolitiTweet.org
