Next week marks the 500th episode of The Axe Files! So this week, we thought we'd re-share the very FIRST episode, w/@SenSanders, recorded in in back of a moving RV on 9/28/15 when his insurgent campaign for @POTUS was just taking off. Fun listen!

If this breakthrough holds, it will achieve some long-held Democratic goals: allowing Medicare to bargain for lower RX prices; significant investments in climate action; continuation of ACA consumer subsidies & the closing of corp tax loopholes. https://t.co/jSEPHoL06J — PolitiTweet.org

18 years ago, a young state senator from IL introduced himself to the nation at the Democratic National Convention in Boston. The rest, as they say, is history! https://t.co/Fawctcd8jM — PolitiTweet.org

When @CNN political director @DavidChalian was 11, a shocking event changed his life. We spoke about it on the #AxeFiles. Pod👉https://t.co/SQGQh3fZNx https://t.co/0a2GItmtCG — PolitiTweet.org

As our politics churn, @POTUS is quietly amassing a series of signficant wins that may or may not not benefit him in the short run but will benefit the country in the long run. This is one of them. https://t.co/sQAQmK1aRL — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

If ⁦@RepLizCheney⁩ or ⁦@AdamKinzinger⁩ were running in swing districts, would that justify Dems funding Trump-endorsed, extremist candidates in @GOP primary in order to try to get an edge in the general? That's what's happening here. https://t.co/1d9igwoMNk — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

It matters to markets what politicians and, more important, the Fed says about the state of the economy. But to much of the public, the economy is how they're experiencing it. It's about how they FEEL, not about what they're told. — PolitiTweet.org

Someone is having troubled adjusting to his new career! — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

With Trump & @Mike_Pence playing different DC rooms, and all kinds other stuff busting loose, canpaign warrior @Lis_Smith--author of the new memoir--Any Given Tuesday, joins us for an all new @HacksOnTap! https://t.co/fpdXNuuISt — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

He may not be able to overcome the stiff headwinds of the year or his state's red lean but @TimRyan is running a hell of a Senate race in OH. Democrats should pay attention. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On #AxeFiles, @DavidChalian recalls an interview he produced w/@SarahPalinUSA shortly after she was tapped for VP. Despite blank answers, Chalian says he was struck by her down-home style. "I could see her really having some traction on the trail." Pod👉https://t.co/SQGQh3fZNx https://t.co/EC8xcRpJcu — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Republican @RepMeijer⁩ placed his young political career at risk by voting to impeach Trump. Disappointing that Ds are trying to help Trump exact vengeance. https://t.co/x9U2Mcx9pY — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Ever have an loud and obnoxious guest take over your party and then refuse to leave at an appropriate time? That's the @GOP's connundrum now. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump calls AZ House Speaker Bowers a "coward" for standing up to Trump. https://t.co/qWSbM2bJbb — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

In a world without rules, one country can seize another and wage a wanton war of terror on civilan populations. That is the implication of Russia's war on Ukraine, if they are allowed to succeed. https://t.co/aXWtNK8KaL — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

How to buy a state. "It is a Russian-style oligarchy, pure and simple. Really, really wealthy people who are willing to spend a lot of money to get policy made the way they want it -- and they get it." https://t.co/eHEl9s67xw — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Great profile of ⁦@RepKinzinger⁩ and his evolution from Young Gun favorite within the @GOP leadership to anti-Trump apostate. https://t.co/epXaXwQ1jz — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As a young actor in NYC, @DavidChalian lucked into a gig helping the great @AnnaDeavereS research a play about the drama of politics. Now political director of @CNN, Chalian explains on #AxeFiles how his training in theater & politics converged. Pod👉https://t.co/SQGQh3fZNx https://t.co/aSstmIpSmb — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

He warned us decades ago about the extreme weather conditions we are grappling with today. With time running out, we should heed @algore's admonition now, and stop using the atmosphere as an "open sewer." https://t.co/sdQGAdHVI2 — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Politics is funny. @GOP hopes to capitalize on high gas prices. But prices are now falling. If that continues, Ds surely will send out a #BidenGasPriceCut tweet. And the truth is, the @POTUS has very little to do with either the hike or the fall. https://t.co/oqkgesaB55 — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On #AxeFiles, @CNN political director @DavidChalian talks about @POTUS & his age. "I do think it's something that he & his team are going to have to address more if does choose to run. And it's not just about putting out a doctor's report." Pod👉https://t.co/SQGQh3fZNx https://t.co/Twp98rcQqh — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

And just to be clear, I feel the same way when members of SCOTUS, local election officials or anyone else is menaced. The incitement to violence against public officials is a dagger at the heart of democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This, in the United States of America? A sitting member of Congress, who can't campaign in public venues out of fear for her safety? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

"Facing consistent & credible death threats, she has been forced to abandon traditional retail campaigning, trading public rallies & town halls for private events where her presence is often revealed to the public only after their conclusion, if at all." https://t.co/EsVwTapTWr — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

On #AxeFiles, @CNN political director @DavidChalian speaks about Trump & the network. "Trump wanted clearly to make CNN an actor in his presidency. He wanted us to be an opponent of his, I mean, literally calling us the enemy of the people..." Pod👉https://t.co/SQGQh3fZNx https://t.co/U24wKqYYGf — PolitiTweet.org

This summation by @RepLizCheney is absolutely devastating. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Stunning that Trump spoke with Giuliani during the insurrection but not his AG, the chair of the Joint Chiefs, his homeland security secretary or anyone who, on his orders, could have intervened. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Something I meant to ask earlier: Isn't it a little odd that Jared was showering during the insurrection? — PolitiTweet.org
