Biden: “Pope Francis … is a man of great empathy.” Says he takes “great solace” in his relationship with him. Recounts a “cathartic” meeting with Biden’s extended family and the Pope in a hangar at the Philadelphia airport after Beau died of brain cancer. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden says “we are going to continue to respond” if Iran launches drone strikes or does anything else to strike US interests and says the US continues to suffer because Trump pulled out of the Iran deal. In response to a @seungminkim question at Biden’s G-20 presser in Rome. — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden at G20 presser in Rome says that workers aren’t returning to the workforce because they’re holding out for higher wages and want to change to professions that are less grueling. Biden says 6 million more people are working than when he took office. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden says he’s “disappointed” that Russia, China and Saudi Arabia aren’t leading on climate change or otherwise taking meaningful action. “The proof of the pudding will be in the eating,” the president says at presser in Rome. — PolitiTweet.org

Those who’ve had at least one dose of a covid vaccine support Terry McAuliffe by 14 points in the Washington Post poll. Those who have refused to get vaccinated favor Glenn Youngkin by 77 points. Big correlation here with education level. The uneducated are also the unvaccinated. — PolitiTweet.org

Horrifying: Some for­mer mem­bers of Afghanistan’s U.S.-trained intelligence service and elite mil­i­tary units—abandoned by their American patrons and hunted by the Taliban—have en­listed in the Is­lamic State, the only group fighting the new rulers. https://t.co/ITUBcxEqUH — PolitiTweet.org

If Terry McAuliffe falls short in the governor’s race, look to Alexandria’s Crestwood Drive for clues. Always read ⁦@harrispolitico⁩: https://t.co/MxitXGXFEl — PolitiTweet.org

@linderje @PostOpinions But repealing 230 would entrench the market power of these behemoths and embolden them to censor a wider array of political content that they could claim was potentially defamatory. I think the best solution to bad speech is more speech. Repealing 230 would stifle speech, I fear. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

@linderje @PostOpinions My view is we don’t want to disincentivize free expression. The platforms shouldn’t be liable for every single post on their sites. And you don’t want to create high compliance costs that only the biggest players can afford, creating barriers to entry. Would crush innovation. — PolitiTweet.org

Grover Cleveland faced chants of “Ma, Ma Where’s my Pa?” in the 1880s over rumors he’d fathered an illegitimate child. Jefferson and Jackson were the subject of poems that leaned into racist tropes and allegations of bigamy. But there wasn’t social media. https://t.co/St6NukiiEI — PolitiTweet.org

Great analysis about Macron’s domestic political calculus coming into the Biden meeting and the G20, via @AnnieLinskey in Rome and @rick_n in Paris. Macron is taking a hard line because he’s worried about his re-elect in less than six months. https://t.co/hQp1oCdpcR — PolitiTweet.org
