Toomey votes for Biden’s FDA nominee around noon, while threatening to bottle up his Fed nominees in committee in couple hours — PolitiTweet.org
David Lim @davidalim
Sen. Pat Toomey votes YES on Robert Califf for FDA commissioner. That might be the critical vote.

@hollyotterbein I asked DSCC chair Peters if he's comfortable w candidate like Fetterman "All of our candidates running in Pennsylvania could win a general election. And I guess anytime I hear Republicans under estimating a candidate it brings a smile on my face, because I've been in that seat" — PolitiTweet.org

Stop me if you’ve heard this one, but conservative senators say they won’t speed up the CR unless they get a vote on defunding vaccine mandates (this happened last year and they received their vote. It failed) https://t.co/ggJlCbirGv — PolitiTweet.org

D Sen. Sherrod Brown on Pennsylvania's GOP Senate primary: "They’ve got two Trump wannabes running, including a doctor who’s — I don’t even know how to describe Dr. Oz." Ohio: "They all look foolish." and much more! https://t.co/52ZteK64ZX @aadragna — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin also says he's probably not going to have the votes beat Califf's nomination to FDA: "I don't think so." He opposes Califf strongly over handling of opioid epidemic — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin tells reporters of a hypothetical SCOTUS vacancy close to an election: "I'm not going to be hypocritical on that. If it would come a week or two weeks before like it did with our last Supreme Court nominee, I think that's the time it should go to the next election" — PolitiTweet.org

@marianne_levine Another wrinkle here: KBJ to SCOTUS would open up another D.C. Circuit seat for Biden to fill. Childs to SCOTUS would open up a District seat and also require a new nominee for DC Circuit (she is currently nominated to that). Kruger would take more vetting than the other 2 — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
@marianne_levine A nominee this week "would be optimal, but not likely,” said Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin. If Biden names a nominee who has not been processed through committee like Kruger, he would likely need to name that pick this week to meet the self-imposed Easter deadline, per aides — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
President Biden not expected to make SCOTUS nomination this week, just starting up interviews. And if he picks Calif. Supreme Court Judge Kruger, will take longer to vet than KBJ/Childs, who have been through committee before. @marianne_levine https://t.co/xKJLAUbPk7 — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer says he's working on scheduling the continuing resolution, which must pass by Feb. 18 to avoid shutdown. He has not filed cloture on it yet, hoping to work it out with Sen. Blackburn, who wants reassurances HHS isn't handing out crack pipes — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer says he will try to make technical fixes to the postal bill later today. Yesterday, spokesman said Sen. Rick Scott may block it Schumer: "I hope my Republican colleagues will give consent to allow these necessary fixes to go through" If not, will delay bill a few days — PolitiTweet.org

NRSC Chair Rick Scott also has won nothing but close races: 2010, 2014 governor races then beat Sen. Bill Nelson in 2018. Pretty rare to have a match-up like this from the party chairs, usually one of the chairs is from a safeish seat — PolitiTweet.org

A very interesting wrinkle to all this is Peters's back and forth with Ron Johnson over 2020. Today, Peters would only say he wants to win Wis., wouldn't bash Johnson Johnson: “He’s never publicly apologized for lying and screaming about me ... So no, I’m not happy with the man" — PolitiTweet.org
