Chuck Schumer opens the door to court packing if Republicans full the RBG seat: “It will be a decision ... once we win the majority, God willing, everything is on the table!” — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer criticizes “Mitch McConnell’s blatant, nasty hypocrisy” and urges all Americans to call their senators. ☎️ — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer and RBG both graduated from Madison High School in Brooklyn. That’s why Schumer is speaking to reporters in front of the school house door. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Chuck Schumer says in Brooklyn that Republicans confirming a replacement to the “saintly” RBG “would turn back the clock 100 years.” Not sure which decision he’s specifically referring to with that one. — PolitiTweet.org

@BlueBoxDave You can vote early, in person. That's clearly what she's talking about. Totally different. — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden leaves the stage in Philadelphia without taking any questions from reporters after his Supreme Court speech. One thing it would be nice to ask: Would he ever change his position to support liberal efforts to pack the court if Senate Republicans fill the Ginsburg seat? — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Joe Biden pleads with Senate Republicans who aren't McConnell to keep RBG's seat open for him: "We need to act in the spirit of conciliation, not confrontation. ... It's important to have an open hand, not a clenched fist, with those with whom we disagree." — PolitiTweet.org

2) Any women on his lift would endure attacks for months on end without being able to defend herself. 3) “If I win, I’ll make my choice for the Supreme Court … only after consulting with Democrats and Republicans and seeking their advice and asking for their consent." — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Joe Biden says he will nominate a Black woman for RBG's seat if he gets a chance, but he will NOT release a list of possibilities for 3 reasons: 1) It would create a conflict of interest for everyone on the list -- and the perception of one. — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden lays out the stakes of the Supreme Court vacancy in Philadelphia: Millions of Americans are at risk of losing their health care. Millions are at risk of losing their right to vote. Millions of Dreamers are at risk. Millions of union workers are at risk. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Joe Biden in Philadelphia: "To jam this nomination through the Senate is just an exercise in raw political power, and I don’t believe the people of this nation will stand for it. President Trump has already made it clear: This is about power. Pure and simple. Power." — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Joe Biden notes that "voting has already begun" in the general election before Justice Ginsburg's death. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

In Philly, Joe Biden is quoting Lindsey Graham from 2016 saying "use my words against me, and you'd be absolutely right" if Republicans tried to confirm a Supreme Court justice in an election year. He also quotes Mitch McConnell and Chuck Grassley for comments four years ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden on RBG's death wish: "As a nation, we should heed her final call to us." — PolitiTweet.org

FWIW: Ginsburg always demurred whenever people said that she did for women on SCOTUS what Thurgood Marshall did for African Americans, which Biden just did again in Philly. — PolitiTweet.org

In all seriousness, I don’t get why no one in the president’s circle has ever taken Trump aside to explain that he ought not speak of God as some kind of fragile and weak figure who needs his protection. God, in fact, is all powerful. He is the Alpha and the Omega. — PolitiTweet.org
