For 8 yrs, @PatinkinMandy played CIA big Saul Berenson on @SHO_Homeland. To prepare for the role, he spent many hours w/real life spies. On a new #AxeFiles, he talks about what he learned about the men and women of the IC. https://t.co/i2I3eYA2DY https://t.co/UvaJzBDTHe — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Speaking w/the brilliant actor/singer/activist @PatinkinMandy is a thrill ride of philosophy, story-telling & raw emotion. I sat down for the #AxeFiles w/the @SHO_Homeland star & talked about his life, craft and, of course, politics! Great pod!👉https://t.co/i2I3eYRDvw https://t.co/QLsBfpYsnQ — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t care what spin we’re offered. No candid R would argue privately that the numbers are encouraging or that @realDonaldTrump is closing well. #not2016 — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

In MI and WI, where @realDonaldTrump won by the narrowest of margins, @JoeBiden’s hefty lead among 2016 non-voters and third party voters is an important data point and is reflected in PA, as well. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Another significant finding fron @washingtonpost/ABC poll that should calm the fears of jittery Dems and chill @realDonaldTrump: @JoeBiden is winning likely voters who say they either did not support Clinton or Trump in 2016 or did not vote that year by about 2 to 1. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This means in those states and PA, where mail-in ballots will not yet have been counted, @realDonaldTrump will likely show a substantial-and misleading-edge on election night. As you watch returns, it’s important to keep this in mind. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump leads among likely voters who plan to vote on Election Day, with 65% support in MI and 70% in WI. Among voters who have already voted or plan to do so before Election Day, over 7 in 10 in both MI and WI support Biden. https://t.co/P8j3iTxSrY — PolitiTweet.org

Long before Ruth Bader Ginsberg ascended to the bench, she and @NinaTotenberg became friends. On #AxeFiles, I asked the veteran journalist about why she thought RBG hadn’t retired during the @BarackObama administration to assure he would replace her. https://t.co/9gjjYIDuIq https://t.co/mxEmbI3YP7 — PolitiTweet.org

Looking forward to talking the election with my @HacksOnTap partner @murphymike and an old pal from journalism, @JimWarren55, TONIGHT at the Chicago Humanities Festival. 7 p.m. Central, 8 p.m. Eastern. https://t.co/itJ40SFXoP — PolitiTweet.org

Justice Barrett: “This was a rigorous confirmation process.” Say WHAT?!? She willfully-and skillfully-evaded every question. Quickest confirmation, from nomination to confirmation, in modern history. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Amy Coney Barrett was just narrowly confirmed to SCOTUS w/all R votes. On the #AxeFiles, @NinaTotenberg warns that the rightward tilt of the new court on issues like abortion rights, guns and anti-discrimination laws could, over time, erode its standing. https://t.co/9gjjYIDuIq https://t.co/pZIVzoOgqG — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

In our #AxeFiles convo, @NinaTotenberg draws parallels between the SCOTUS we can anticipate with a Justice Barrett and the famously conservative court of the 1930s, which opposed major elements of Roosevelt’s New Deal. Pod👉https://t.co/9gjjYIDuIq https://t.co/TMEAG0Vohl — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As the Senate installs Amy Coney Barrett on the SCOTUS to beat the election clock, I asked @NPR’s @NinaTotenberg, the incisive Grande Dame of court watchers, about the lightning quick-If not enlightening-confirmation process.

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This @axios story reports on a planned score-settling purge at the FBI, CIA, Pentagon and elsewhere if the @POTUS is re-elected. But when I spoke with @AmbJohnBolton on the #AxeFiles earlier this month, he forecast such a purge even if Trump LOSES. https://t.co/IvGUJr7djr — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

“It’s our Justice Department that’s helping her!” @realDonaldTrump on @SixtyMinutes. He apparently believes that the FBI thwarting a domestic terrorist plot against @GovWhitmer was a favor. Then he proceeded to reprise his attacks on Whitmer that stirred the militiamen. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Wonder what would happen if governors decided that street lights were purely optional, so as not to infringe on the freedom of drivers? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

⁦The @UnionLeader⁩ endorsing a Dem for POTUS? Never thought I’d live to see the day! https://t.co/sffx7cYvTJ — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Why is everyone harping on this raging, resurgent pandemic that already has killed 225,000 Americans? The @POTUS is tired of hearing it! — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

In this highly-charged environment, where journalism is under siege, veteran DC correspondent @SusanPage makes the case for the importance of nuanced, “down the middle” coverage. New #AxeFiles. Great conversation! Full pod here👉https://t.co/JoBXUsSm0C https://t.co/ptEHatvg27 — PolitiTweet.org
