Interesting dynamic here: Will Senate Dems vote on a bill codifying Roe that Manchin/Collins/Murkowski can support? That wouldn't pass, but it would be a bipartisan majority https://t.co/pmxgj7zlw5 @marianne_levine @AliceOllstein — PolitiTweet.org

👀 Not all Rs giving it up for McConnell on Roe “Why would he get any credit?" Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) said. "Did he nominate the judges? I’d give the credit to the guy who nominated the judges.” “Donald Trump is what gives us this possibility” — PolitiTweet.org

“McConnell prepared for this with his refusal to fill the vacancy of Scalia. It was by design an effort to make sure that this day would come,” Durbin said. “It’s exactly what he wanted. More than anything else, this was the trademark decision for the modern Trump party.” — PolitiTweet.org

Today at GOP lunch McConnell told senators to focus on the “egregious leak” if they were uncomfortable discussing the substance of Alito draft. Afterward he scolded reporters for not focusing on it. But his decisions, particularly on Garland and ACB, are what made this possible — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell closes in on Roe after years of pushing courts rightward McConnell wouldn’t take credit today, but Rs and Ds alike say he’s almost singularly responsible. Barrasso: “It was Mitch McConnell’s ability that put us in a position to have 3 openings” https://t.co/31By6ukmsG — PolitiTweet.org

@mkraju McConnell: said in GOP lunch "our entire conversation today is just what I’ve been talking to you about. And you need, it seems to me, a lecture to concentrate on what the news is today. Not a leaked draft, but the fact that the draft was leaked." — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

@mkraju McConnell was asked about how this might reshape the midterms McConnell: “That’s not the story for today the story for today is what I just said” I asked if he sees a need for federal abortion legislation if Roe is shut down: "All of this puts the cart before the horse." — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell's Roe answers today. @mkraju asked if he feels responsible for draft ruling against Roe. McConnell: “I think the story today is an effort by someone on the inside to discredit the institution" — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer: "It’s a different world now, the tectonic plates of our politics, on women’s choice and on women’s rights in general are changing. Every senator now, under the real glare of roe v wade being repealed by the courts, is going to have to show which side they’re on." — PolitiTweet.org

A fired-up Schumer says it’s “incredible” that McConnell won’t talk about draft opinion against Roe and is focused on source. “They’re like the dog that caught the bus” — PolitiTweet.org

I asked if he believes federal abortion restriction legislation will be necessary and McConnell said the story of the day is someone circulating a draft option from inside the court and that we’re putting “the cart before the horse” — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell says he “absolutely” is committed to keeping the Senate legislative filibuster. Asked if he takes credit for loss of abortion rights, McConnell says the story of the day is the source of the Alito draft — PolitiTweet.org

Senate GOP leaders pointedly avoiding the substance of the Alito opinion in their opening remarks to reporters. McConnell focused on finding source of draft, Thune on masks, Barrasso on inflation, Blunt on hunger in Ukraine, Ernst on economy, Scott on DHS disinformation board — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell says CJ Roberts is likely to find whoever circulated the draft Alito opinion on Roe given the small number of people who had access — PolitiTweet.org
