Raskin says that's "profoundly inaccurate and irrelevant" Says they can be separated, although honestly I'm a little confused by that whole exchange — PolitiTweet.org

van der Veen responds instead to Castro reading tweets and says that I'm "not from here. I'm not like you guys" and knocks House case as "smoke and mirrors." — PolitiTweet.org

Hawley/Cramer ask if the Senate could in theory disqualify a sitting president but not remove the president — PolitiTweet.org

Seems like without witnesses, there's not a lot of new information forthcoming at this point in the trial. — PolitiTweet.org

Dems read Tuberville comments to me about his convo with Trump. The defense says Trump did not know Pence was in danger. — PolitiTweet.org

Romney asks: When Trump attacked Pence on Twitter, was he aware that VP had been removed from Senate for safety. — PolitiTweet.org

Huh. Dems ask the exact same question about what did Trump know about Cap breach and when did he know it. — PolitiTweet.org

@marianne_levine Interesting thing here is the GOP isn't even talking about this at party meetings. There's no whip count. Everyone is just guessing at what their colleagues are doing. Pretty rare for things to be so unsettled a day before such a big vote — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

@marianne_levine There's been a change in the dynamics just from this morning. Murkowski said the Trump legal team is doing better than before, and she's been among Trump's biggest critics. — PolitiTweet.org

@marianne_levine Could there be a surprise tomorrow? “I could see it as possible ... Certainly not enough for conviction,” Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D). Asked if it was fair to say he was genuinely undecided, Burr responded: “It’s fair to say I’m not going to talk to you about it at all.” — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

Senate GOP abuzz over who is voting to convict. Smart money is still on 5-6. Privately Rs believe 5-10 senators are weighing conviction votes, per latest reporting with @marianne_levine. McConnell still saying nothing to colleagues. Eyes on Burr, Portman https://t.co/NY4uIHwkkx — PolitiTweet.org

“She’s not someone who cares about convention and the way things were,” said Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), a friend and ally. “She recognizes the real tradition of a Republic, which is that we are elected not to put our finger in the air to determine the direction of the wind.” — PolitiTweet.org

Those are just some of the things that make her perhaps most interesting member of Senate. She often wears a bright-colored wig to vote. Waits for a single elevator most of the time, once peeking into a packed vessel and declaring it a “Covid elevator.” Office walls: loud purple — PolitiTweet.org

When VP Harris went on air in https://t.co/UzNXewg5IC. + Arizona, Manchin reacted publicly. Sinema was equally unhappy but decided to keep her feelings private “It’s not effective to pressure me on anything," she says. Says her constituents don't care about "palace intrigue" — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

If you want to know what drives Sinema, understand she's NEVER served in the majority before during her career “There is no instance in which I would overrule a parliamentarian’s decision, ... I want to restore the 60-vote threshold for all elements of the Senate's work.” — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

Sen. Sinema doesn't make waves often. But when she speaks, Democrats need to listen “The minimum wage provision is not appropriate for the reconciliation process. It is not a budget item. And it shouldn’t be in there," she says in phone interview https://t.co/Q7U2t6vC90 — PolitiTweet.org
