@MattGrossmann @jacksantucci @leedrutman @smotus @julia_azari Curious if you had any thoughts that despite all the talk about peak polarization, partisanship and gridlock that the number of bills passed in 1963-4 seems about the same as the number of bills passed in 2017-2018? https://t.co/eXPIUKb70l — PolitiTweet.org

Does anyone have updated versions of these graphs about the productivity of the most recent Congress' (112-116) under Obama and Trump? https://t.co/9RvvsTjHOf — PolitiTweet.org

"I walked into the room and I told Sen. Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, I want to do infrastructure," Trump said. "But you can’t do it under these circumstances." More mob-style tactics from Trump to obstruct justice and accountability. https://t.co/TiyUVHgA0B — PolitiTweet.org

A great summary of MLK's political philosophy. 1: Racism is entangled with "irrational fears" of losing socioeconomic status 2: Racism is America's "congenital deformity" 3: Racism arises from "cognitive and empathetic failures...a contempt for life" https://t.co/XpZwvtdcJQ — PolitiTweet.org

For all the fearmongering from the Democratic Party establishment and pundit class about single-payer, Medicare for All turning off swing voters, the candidate most known for Medicare for All is currently only polling one point behind the candidate most against Medicare for All. — PolitiTweet.org

The chair of the House Ways and Means Subcommittee on Health just sponsored @RepJayapal's Medicare for All Bill. This is a big deal. — PolitiTweet.org

“Our criminal justice system needs to change. New Yorkers deserve a seat at the table, and a champion who will fight to realign our priorities toward equal treatment under the law. If @CabanForQueens wins, things are going to change.” -@AOC https://t.co/B0tTV89953 — PolitiTweet.org

it would be nice if people were less racist and greedy so we could all have nice things and a normal social democracy where we argue about the best management systems to make single payer more efficient and so i could read more random books about things I want to learn more about — PolitiTweet.org

When candidates begin to make the leadership and policy differences between themselves and Biden more stark to voters, especially at debates, the polls will likely shift. In January 2008, Clinton was ahead of Obama by 21 points. https://t.co/bA7bo2lzyf — PolitiTweet.org

@aedwardslevy It's up to activists and organizers to drive issues into a conversation that is often dominated by celebrity-style coverage of clashing personalities over issues impacting people's lives. Candidates will begin to make the choices more stark. I think we're all playing our part. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Jackson on single-payer health care in 1989: "Piecemeal reforms at the federal level...are well-intentioned but insufficient...these patchwork proposals are expensive because they leave in place all of the waste and inefficiency of the current system." https://t.co/0UHGgJaw19 — PolitiTweet.org
