On #AxeFiles, @ChrisChristie recalled his thoughts when he laid in the ICU w/COVID. It wasn’t politics. “I was thinking about my daughters & who's going to walk them down the aisle if I'm not there? Who’s going to guide my son on how to be a father?” Pod👉https://t.co/TZ3CSK5Ywf https://t.co/2MmiJNbr0J — PolitiTweet.org

On #AxeFiles, @ChrisChristie calls Marjorie Taylor Greene a “destructive” force who “doesn’t belong” in Congress. But he says it isn’t as simple as expelling her because she was elected. “She ran waving the QAnon flag, and they voted for her anyway.” Pod: https://t.co/TZ3CSK5Ywf https://t.co/fCKHvNw6pe — PolitiTweet.org

I know the phrase has become deeply politicized but at the end of the day, wasn’t the question this case raised WAS whether this Black life-the life of Ahmaud Arbery-mattered? That’s why this verdict-delivered by 11 white and one black juror-was so important. — PolitiTweet.org

A swift and just verdict. — PolitiTweet.org

Seems to me we’re making progress on climate when Middle Eastern countries are competing for solar energy deals. And good for @JohnKerry for energetically brokering this deal. https://t.co/p48UyEsuhy — PolitiTweet.org

I was at the @chicagobulls game the other night when the fans started chanting “Fire Matt Nagy!”-the BEARS coach. When fans at a basketball game start changing for the firing of a FOOTBALL coach, you know it’s probably time for him to go! https://t.co/Niir4dIoYE (Via Sun-Times) — PolitiTweet.org

After the Kenosha trial, I’m relieved to watch a judge who doesn’t seem inclined to make a spectacle of himself — PolitiTweet.org

I’m no lawyer but it strikes me that this prosecutor in the Arbery case, Linda Donikoski, is really effective. Doesn’t mean she’ll get convictions but this rebuttal argument is powerful and compelling. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On #AxeFiles, @ChrisChristie says the Big Lie was “red line”that finally caused him to break w/Trump after years of faithful support. "So that's a red line for me. You can't undercut our democracy with no facts.” Pod here👉 https://t.co/TZ3CSK5Ywf https://t.co/xwksSnM7zl — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Ds should stop referring to the BBB as huge, historic and “transformative,”emphasizing instead how it is RESPONSIVE to some of the everyday challenges people are facing. Practical answers to real life problems like the cost of child care. No one’s asking to be “transformed.” — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Hard to see how @ChrisChristie wrenches the @GOP from Trump. But the fmr NJ Gov has a new book & is going at his erstwhile ally w/gusto. His bet is that he can break the fever by providing “cover” for Rs who fear slighting Trump. New #AxeFiles! Pod👉https://t.co/TZ3CSK5Ywf https://t.co/axzmpzxYQn — PolitiTweet.org

Bear THAT, @ChicagoBears fans! Another last second loss. Time to shake the whole org up from to bottom. This is painful. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Has an interesting exchange on #AxeFiles w/@RepJayapal on the difference between being an activist and a legislator. Her answer? Hard choices. “You have to press a button, Yes or No, so a lot of my time here has been spent figuring out ‘How do you get the best possible deal?’” — PolitiTweet.org

Stuart Schoffman, a brilliant American-Israeli writer/thinker, has passed away. Stuart’s range of interest & knowledge was breathtaking. He also was just a good person, whose company I enjoyed. Great husband, father & friend. May his memory he a blessing. https://t.co/APmJMcTc0r — PolitiTweet.org

On #AxeFiles, @RepJayapal talks about death threats against members of Congress and calls out @GOPLeader McCarthy for enabling it. “He’s given in wholly to the calling of violence; to all of the Big Lie that the Republicans now stand for.” Pod here👉 https://t.co/zOpCimygDH https://t.co/L4jdXelnxP — PolitiTweet.org

There are many concerning things going on in the world. But on the upside, it must be said: the @chicagobulls are good again!! https://t.co/EdqoCGKQSW — PolitiTweet.org

I honestly don’t know if the many laudable things mentioned below-& the historic infrastructure investments-will save the Ds next year. But I do know that these things will save and improve the lives of people and communities in meaningful and lasting ways. That matters, too. — PolitiTweet.org

.@GOPLeader smugly taunted Democrats for 9 hours the other night for fighting for universal pre-school, affordable child care, lower drug costs, home health care for the elderly and disabled. Democrats will taunt Republicans in campaigns next year for opposing every one of those. — PolitiTweet.org

Jury has to be guided by the law, evidence and instructions they receive. He had a self-defense case and they acted on that basis. But the idea that a kid could be on the street w/a semi-automatic weapon and kill people, with absolutely no penalty, sends an alarming message. — PolitiTweet.org
