David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As a law student, @DougJones, introduced a young Sen. JoeBiden at a law school event. That began a 40-yr friendship. On #AxeFiles, I asked about Biden and '24. "It's going to be a a difficult call for him. It's not like a normal run for reelection." https://t.co/0DMsaLe8BG https://t.co/Lq4OF8uSZN — PolitiTweet.org

An extraordinary judgement against Alex Jones for the extraordinarily cruel and cynical hoax he perpetrated at the expense of the Sandy Hook survivors. https://t.co/zBiSFnIewz — PolitiTweet.org

Excited that my brilliant friend and colleague @secupp is leading a program @UChiPolitics tonight--From Muskets to M16s: America’s Unique Relationship to Guns. An important discussion on a hugely important topic. Guaranteed to be worth your time. https://t.co/I93lxx0zkH — PolitiTweet.org

Hooray! I am so thrilled that former Sen. @HeidiHeitkamp will succeed me as director of @UChiPolitics!! — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On the #AxeFiles, @DougJones tells a moving story about the night @BarackObama was elected in 2008, a celebration in Birmingham and the unlikely celebrant who turned up there: George Wallace's old press secretary. "Those things mean so much." Pod👉https://t.co/0DMsaKX5zG https://t.co/cEuUqljmOg — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

I agree w/⁦@BernieSanders on this⁩: Abortion is an extraordinarily important issue that has galvanIzed many voters and shaken up the midterms. But it isn't the ONLY issue. And Democrats who are relying on it as a silver bullet may come up short. https://t.co/oTB2AenS71 — PolitiTweet.org

Correction: Rallythis weekend was in Arizona, not Albama! Typing too fast. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

And as if on cue, Jones's 2020 opponent, Senator Tommy Tuberville underscored the point with a full-throated, racist tirade, to the delight of many in the crowd at at a Trump rally in Alabama this weekend. https://t.co/HgLd3XL1Aj — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

GRACE by @codykeenan, former chief speechwriter for @BarackObama, is one of the most inspiring and delightful books I've read this year. It went on sale today and I'll be talking w/him about it live @UChiPolitics at 5:15 central tonight! Register here👉https://t.co/auYX9DrMaQ — PolitiTweet.org

I grew up in NYC rooting for the @Mets but that was when they were plucky underdogs. It's always good to see teams with the gaudiest payrolls and most ostentatious owners spin off the track. Bye, bye, Mets. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As a federal prosecutor, @DougJones helped bring church-bombing Klansmen & the Olympic Park bomber to justice. On #AxeFiles, he warns of the "rise of the white nationalist fervor & hate crimes across the country," and says Trump has stoked those flames. https://t.co/0DMsaLe8BG https://t.co/BLpgjkusnY — PolitiTweet.org

Classic move whereby a candidate weaponizes and exploits division by issuing a statement decrying division. — PolitiTweet.org

This really goes to the core of it. The Great Replacement Theory that animates so much of the Trumpian right, distilled by perhaps its nosiest and most authentic proponent. (Sorry, Tucker.) — PolitiTweet.org

The more trouble Herschel Walker gets himself into, the more national Rs are rallying behind him. That's how essential they see GA to their prospects of taking the senate. https://t.co/25sLSZaAF6 — PolitiTweet.org

.@DougJones is something of a unicorn--the only Democrat to win a senate seat in in the Deep South in recent years. On #AxeFiles, he had some advice for his fellow Democrats about winning back small town and rural voters: "Don't look down on them."

This @CleGuardians-@RaysBaseball game is quite a stare down. No score headed into the ninth. Great pitching. Great defense, — PolitiTweet.org

I may have missed it. Did Herschel file the defamation suit he promised after the Daily Beast abortion story ran? Or did he punt? https://t.co/5XD7lwOsmz — PolitiTweet.org

"There's a line from the judge in To Kill a Mockingbird who says, 'You know, people see what they want to see & hear what they want to hear.' I hate that some friends of mine who voted in favor of Kavanaugh feel betrayed. But I think they heard what they wanted to hear." — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On @axeFiles, @DougJones explains why his old colleagues (I think he means you, @SenatorCollins!) who voted for Kavanaugh, Barrett & Gorsuch based on their declarations in confirmation hearings that Roe was "settled law" shouldn't feel betrayed.

Good news is bad news. It's kind of a perverse formula. The job market is strong so the market tanks out of fear of future rate hikes. https://t.co/3ljjMoBnfw — PolitiTweet.org
