Sen. Rick Scott will go to the Senate floor this afternoon to ask that the Senate vote just on the $14 in Ukraine aid, arguing it will get to Biden faster. Democrats will likely object. Scott is undecided on whether he'll object to a vote today — PolitiTweet.org

Kennedy on the omnibus: “I don’t think we’re going to get it done today. That’s just what I’m hearing…I’d like time to read it, just a thought” — PolitiTweet.org

Rand Paul says the omnibus is a “terrible awful piece of crap” but doesn’t seem like he’s intent on delaying it: “I don’t know what else I can do” besides vote no — PolitiTweet.org

Judiciary Chairman Durbin says Republicans probably have all the KBJ documents from sentencing they're going to get "To slow down or stop the hearing for that kind of a fishing expedition seems to me to be unfair and unwise. We're still going forward" w/ March 21 hearing — PolitiTweet.org

Senate GOP Thune says Rs want amendment votes (defund vaccine mandates) to take up $1.5T spending bill. He says it could pass today, but cautions that some Republicans might want more time to review massive bill. "The process stinks," he said. "It could drag out for a few days" — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell says omnibus spending bill checks the boxes for him: Parity between defense/non-defense, keeps policy riders and deliver Ukraine aid. Remaining question is what it will take to get all of his conference to allow a quick vote — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer says the omnibus will pass the Senate "hopefully tonight." However, the deadline is tomorrow night so, as always, be skeptical. Need consent from all 100 senators — PolitiTweet.org

@KateDavidson Brown and Democrats have been optimistic about getting Republicans (they only need one!) to attend a committee meeting. We found no signs of that: Rounds says he's staying with Toomey Lummis: “He has the Republicans with him.” Pretty big stakes: Fed set to raise rates next week — PolitiTweet.org

@KateDavidson “Is he on the committee now?” Brown quipped with trademark acerbity. “[You] hadn’t told me Manchin is on the committee. Good for him.” “We’re going to have a [committee vote] and we’re going to get them confirmed,” Brown said, adding that Toomey “knows it, and I know it" — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin says Dems should take Toomey's Fed deal: All the nominees move except for Raskin. Manchin: "Run with it. It’s a win" No way, says Sherrod Brown, who won't capitulate to Toomey Our look at the brawl straining the 50/50 Senate https://t.co/JD6XgB2TmG @KateDavidson — PolitiTweet.org

One interesting wrinkle: More Senate Republicans are saying they want a plan for if they get power vs. McConnell running as Dem foil Lummis: “Between the two approaches, I lean more towards the Rick Scott approach to life,” https://t.co/PXH1lYa71y — PolitiTweet.org

“He’s going to do it his way, but that way has worked. And so, in the end, we need him to win and we need him to hold that seat,” said GOP Whip John Thune. “If it requires him to chart sort of an independent path relative to what other candidates may be doing, so be it.” — PolitiTweet.org

Johnson STILL peeved about failed ACA repeal (“All leadership. They didn’t have a plan.”) and GOP's tax cut law ("wasn't a real fan"). He wants to avoid any repeat of that if the GOP takes back power “I try and get along with everybody. But I’m not afraid to say what I believe" — PolitiTweet.org
