Really rooting for the phrase “impeachment torpor” to make it through the copy desk on our latest story, because that’s a phrase I’ve been using with Dem lawmakers during interviews and it’s good for an awkward laugh about 15% of the time. — PolitiTweet.org

All of the people liking Erick Erickson’s tweets about cutting people off from food stamps have “Christian” in their bio. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

Defending the Trump administration for cutting off poor people from food stamps is one helluva way to tell on yourself. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

@DrewWhiteTX @EWErickson And for you to understand that people can be working full-time jobs — even working more than 40 hours a week — and still live below those income thresholds would require math. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

Love a good ~Christian~ who thinks the problem with our government is that a person making $16,237 might be getting food stamps. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

@caon23 That’s not in the bill. This is a separate administrative action. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

@EWErickson That doesn’t remotely answer the question. It’s just semantics. We choose where to put the poverty line. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

@EWErickson Well above the poverty line? 130% of the poverty line is $16,237 for an individual. Or $21,983 for a family of two. Or $27,729 for a family of three. How long would you and your family last on that income? — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

@DrewWhiteTX Ah yes, the federal poverty line of...$12,490. Or $16,910 for a family of two. Or $21,330 for a family of three. — PolitiTweet.org

Last night, as Donald Trump was touting a massive spending deal to suspend the debt limit to around $25 trillion and raise spending caps another $50 billion, his administration was also announcing a plan to kick 3 million people off of food stamps. https://t.co/PCeA3B0aoV — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

If your mission was to craft a debt limit and spending deal that a majority of both parties would support — while losing the members furthest to the left and right — I’m guessing that’s a Mission Accomplished. https://t.co/EiEXAdd4OU — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

@econwonk Agreed. OCO is a terrible hack in all of this and no one — Democrats, Republicans, progressives, conservatives, Mick Mulvaney, AOC, etc — is doing anything to address that. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

Democrats are already touting how they got better than parity increases for defense and non-defense. (They got about $1.21 increase in non-defense for every $1 increase in defense.) But why aren't they blocking Trump's national emergency for the wall? https://t.co/s8sazXX4E7 — PolitiTweet.org

Snapchat changed the look of their app and people just stopped using it. Snapchat doesn't exist anymore. Just completely gone. Many people are saying it never existed. This is what's going to happen to Twitter if they insist on blinding us with this terrible white page. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

Yeah, I get there's a debt limit and spending caps deal and everything, but the new Twitter look is *truly* terrible and they're making a good argument for government intervention. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

@Briligerent Exactly. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

A source tells me the last sticking point on the debt limit and spending deal is the riders — provisions like blocking Trump from spending money on a border wall. Expectation that Pelosi caves on those policy limitations so Democrats can win on the spending. — PolitiTweet.org
