“One of my proudest moments,” the majority leader said in a speech in 2016, “was when I looked Barack Obama in the eye and I said, ‘Mr. President, you will not fill the Supreme Court vacancy.’” https://t.co/mMPxADeHaH — PolitiTweet.org

If @realDonaldTrump and @senatemajldr ram thru a replacement now, the SCOTUS will have a majority of justices appointed by presidents who finished 2d in the popular vote, confirmed by senate majorities who represented less than half of the country. A tyranny of the minority. — PolitiTweet.org

Why is @realDonaldTrump of offering Puerto Rico $13 billion in additional aid for repairs three years AFTER the devastating Hurricane Maria? It’s all about boosting his vote with Puerto Rican voters who moved to Florida after the storm. https://t.co/qdHMZtXCwl — PolitiTweet.org

.@realDonaldTrump would sooner foment a culture war over what is taught in the schools than confront the reality that, given a pandemic he badly mishandled, it’s unsafe for many children to attend them. https://t.co/HcHvk2z0DO — PolitiTweet.org

I was critical of the @JoeBiden campaign earlier, which, I’m sure, they didn’t appreciate. But having endured the 2d-guessing of nervous supporters & donors in the past, I found this story irritating. From here, it looks like Biden’s doing pretty well. https://t.co/LoN3QGcnlR — PolitiTweet.org

AG Barr has so overtly made himself a political instrument for @realDonaldTrump that any action the DOJ takes between now and the election, or ABOUT the election, necessarily will he viewed through that prism. — PolitiTweet.org

In July on the #AxeFiles, Dr. Fauci laid out as a BEST CASE scenario the same timetable on the availability of vaccines to the broader public as Dr. Redfield did yesterday. This isn’t news. It’s the reality of what it takes to develop and manufacture a safe, effective treatment. https://t.co/mTn0CzsWBJ — PolitiTweet.org

Consider this: “Despite Greene espousing views that many see as racist, anti-Semitic and Islamophobic, Republicans are working to bring her into the fold -- and are insisting they expect her to be a team player if she comes to Washington next year. “ https://t.co/UjUEW9pEgc — PolitiTweet.org

I sat down for NEW #AxeFiles w/@nhannahjones of the @nytimes. We talked about the #1619Project she created, her own fascinating journey and the politics of this moment.

Even after Woodward, he’s playing the same old game on the virus-practicing medicine without a license; practicing politics without a conscience. https://t.co/gVjXy7Qnnw — PolitiTweet.org

In fire-ravaged CA, @realDonaldTrump denied the effects of climate change, saying “It will start getting cooler, just you watch.” Sound familiar? “And I think we're going to be very good with the coronavirus. I think that at some point that's going to sort of just disappear.” — PolitiTweet.org

.⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ sent Caputo, a fringy political operative with no background in public health, to take over HHS amid the worst pandemic in a century in order to enforce the party line over science. Now he’s beating the war drums from over there. https://t.co/OnrZzhbg2G — PolitiTweet.org

As they enter a key series v. the @twins tonight, the @whitesox have the best record in the AL. Who saw THAT coming? Meanwhile, the @Cubs sit atop the NL central. So you COULD have an all-Chicago World Series! (Only it would be played in Arlington, TX. Sigh.) — PolitiTweet.org
