Tester: “You’re going to remind me of this [later] when none of it’s paid for,” he deadpanned, “but I do think some of it needs to be paid for.” Shaheen: “There would need to be revenues paid for some portions of it. I don’t think there’s an appetite for all deficit spending.” — PolitiTweet.org

centrists balk at deficit spending on infrastructure Sen. King: “At some point we’ve got to start paying for things... It’s got to be paid for. It’s just a question of who pays. Are we going to pay or our kids going to pay?” W ⁦@sarahnferris⁩ https://t.co/HCMtbfnYJR — PolitiTweet.org

“Dumb, dumb, dumb,” said Cornyn. “Sen. Collins is the most likely Republican to engage in a bipartisan negotiation. Why you would go out of your way to intentionally alienate her is dumb.” “I do think it’s unfortunate there isn’t a better relationship,” said Murkowski — PolitiTweet.org

“If I had been in his shoes, I would have acted differently and done outreach to say: ‘Well, I tried to knock you off three times. It didn’t work. I hope we can still work together,’” Collins said. Schumer declined on Wednesday to repeat critiques and said he wants to work w/ Rs — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer took aim at Collins last night, talking about lessons learned on stimulus: “We made a big mistake in 2009 and ’10. Susan Collins was part of that mistake.” Collins: “it must just reflect his extraordinary frustration at having wasted $100 million in the state of Maine” — PolitiTweet.org

Collins-Schumer rift shocks Senate. They haven’t even talked since the election; she’s talked with Biden four times “Why Chuck seems to be going out of his way to alienate the most bipartisan member of the Senate is a mystery to me,” Collins said. https://t.co/7BNqF5hxWW — PolitiTweet.org

And GOP Sen. John Cornyn fears that Sinema and Manchin can't be relied upon to preserve the filibuster "I'm not holding my breath that they're going to save us or the Senate ... there's going to be an incredible amount of pressure on them." — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Merkley has talked to all 49 other Senate Democrats about his filibuster reform proposals, including Manchin. "There is a tremendous sense in the caucus that Mitch McConnell has profoundly abused the 60-vote motion to close debate" https://t.co/qFzg88ZDzV — PolitiTweet.org
