@Bencjacobs @daveweigel Yeah, this was it. After reading this again years later, his complaints seem even more bizarre. Weigel never said he was drunk, and actually calls him affable and very different from his Donny Ferguson Twitter persona, which was my take too. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@Bencjacobs @daveweigel His big complaint was that people said he was drunk but he said he doesn’t drink because he’s a diabetic. — PolitiTweet.org

@Bencjacobs You’ll appreciate that the last conversation I had with Steve Stockman, he was complaining to me about… https://t.co/UiQXkhns0K — PolitiTweet.org

@Bencjacobs “a fifth rate Harold Hill who somehow thought that the Tea Party made a better racket than leading a boys band” and “a marriage of Andy Kaufman and Michele Bachmann” are both very good. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@Bencjacobs You right, though Steve Stockman was actually capable of having an intelligent conversation, rampantly misusing campaign funds notwithstanding. — PolitiTweet.org

@jimhofmann @Bencjacobs I did intern in 2009 for about four months, but I really started covering Congress in August of 2010, though I did write my senior thesis in college on earmarking and found that, yes, Martha was the biggest earmarker. — PolitiTweet.org

@Bencjacobs Not definitive, but at least three of these would be on this list: Bachmann, Pence, DeMint, Mulvaney, Ron Paul. — PolitiTweet.org

Just as an aside, Allen West is probably the biggest grifter I’ve come across in my decade covering Congress. Used his position to build an email list, unrepentantly loaned it out to Scam PACs, and is now posturing a state that he only moved to in 2015 to secede. — PolitiTweet.org

My best guess for what Trump does now is that he goes golfing. Gonna be in the 60s this weekend. The coup will have to wait a couple days. — PolitiTweet.org

The best response to a grift is a counter-grift, which is why I’m gonna make make a “Come and Take It” t-shirt, but with a ballot instead of a cannon and sell it for $19.99 plus S&H. Texans won’t know if they’re supposed to be offended or supposed to buy one, which, yes. — PolitiTweet.org

@rerutled What he’s asking for is a four-year moratorium that might undermine all sorts of malpractice lawsuits. If it’s just a few months and sufficiently tailored to coronavirus, it’s probably not a huge deal. — PolitiTweet.org

@HayesBrown @chick_in_kiev The “lol” is important here. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@chick_in_kiev Haaaaaave you met Mitch McConnell?? — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@HeyBDub Pelosi and Schumer also aren’t involved in negotiations, and the speaker might not put the deal on the floor, particularly if it doesn’t have state and local money. But the story makes it clear that the biggest obstacle is McConnell. Second paragraph, in fact. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
The thing about the liability shield is that it’s unnecessary. There hasn’t been this “tidal wave of lawsuits,” as McConnell predicted in the spring, and many employers have arbitration agreements blocking those sorts of lawsuits. It’s a made-up issue. https://t.co/anHGl8QaMY — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
An interesting aspect about a coronavirus deal is that congressional leaders just have to stay out of the way and put the final product on the floor. Now that’s what I call LEADERSHIP!!! https://t.co/WgimPAGriH — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Kind of amazing to see Republicans rationalizing Trump’s assault on the electoral process. Just because he’ll be unsuccessful doesn’t mean this isn’t destructive or obscene. And the inability of GOP leaders to call it out as so signifies the moral rot of the party. — PolitiTweet.org
