@edokeefe @JakeSherman Niels is probably right. Also James Lankford not celebrating an Omni. He hates it — PolitiTweet.org

@edokeefe @CapitalGrille A bunch of Republican senators and Sinema kind of sounds like a Portman retirement party.

...on way out door he's cutting big omni deal, set to drop this afternoon, with Leahy. Shrugging off all kinds of criticism from right on the way out door "I’m pretty conservative in a lot of ways, but I’m not against everything" https://t.co/81h6gjcdZV @jordainc @caitlinzemma — PolitiTweet.org

Shelby flipped in 1994 to GOP . Then chaired 4 committees: Intel, Banking, Rules and Appropriations. After announcing retirement, he helped tank Brooks in race to succeed him: "I didn’t think he’d be good for Alabama." Shelby supported Britt, former CoS. That's not all... — PolitiTweet.org

Retiring Shelby has one of the most interesting careers in Congress. Elected to House 1978 as Democrat. Reagan tried to flip him to R, but he held out. (he thought he was fairly "progressive") Ran for and won Senate seat in 1986. Then clashed with Clinton: "The taxman cometh" — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer: "Not going to be everything anybody wanted ... far preferable to a CR ... certainly preferable to a government shutdown. The omnibus will also allow the Senate to pass the Electoral Count Act into law" — PolitiTweet.org

Things left out of omnibus that are not a surprise - Tax provisions, corporate or CTC or otherwise - Marijuana banking - Immigration reform Things in the omnibus that are not a surprise - Electoral Count Act reform — PolitiTweet.org

"This is a strong outcome for Republicans," McConnell says. He basically says the bill is done. — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell says the omnibus "will grow defense spending and cut non-defense" spending after accounting for inflation. This was the line McConnell drew in negotiations. He's still gonna get hit from the right this week. Conservatives want a CR into next year for GOP House — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer says lawmakers are working "around the clock" to finish omnibus, and that every 10 minutes he's on a different call about it over the past three days "Sunday night was the first night of Hanukkah, but unfortunately I had to spend 75 percent of that night on the phone" — PolitiTweet.org

@jordainc @caitlinzemma Shelby’s role taking the heat from his party “goes with the business. You know, like being a head coach,” said Sen. Tommy Tuberville. When asked whether Shelby’s work helps Republicans avoid trouble next year, Tuberville answered unequivocally: “Yes.” — PolitiTweet.org

@jordainc @caitlinzemma In fact, Shelby's House GOP counterpart Granger isn't even in the talks. Shelby on House Republicans: "They should have been at the table, but they chose not to come." Collins said the intra-GOP condemnations aimed at Shelby are “very unfortunate.” — PolitiTweet.org

@jordainc @caitlinzemma Conservatives call Shelby's omnibus a "betrayal" and a "new monument to himself." Asked if he’s happy to take the heat for a deal that will divide his party painfully, Shelby replied: “Happy is a nebulous term.” “I don’t want a monument. Monuments are for pigeons and dogs.” — PolitiTweet.org

House Rs mad over retiring Sen. Shelby's spending bill. He thinks he's helping future them, even if they can't say so “If we’re successful, we’ll have probably done them a favor ... there probably won’t be much thanks for it.” https://t.co/81h6gjcdZV @jordainc @caitlinzemma — PolitiTweet.org

Incoming Chairman Bernie has already met with Collins, Cassidy and Wyden about the HELP Committee. His mantra as he balances activism and incrementalism: “We can achieve some good results working in a bipartisan manner,” Sanders said. “But I am not naive" https://t.co/gI1qFUT45d — PolitiTweet.org

Romney on HELP Chair Sanders: “Heaven help us.” “Historically, he’s had a lot to say but hasn’t been able to get much done. And HELP needs to be able to get things done.” Sanders has more bipartisan accomplishments than is widely known. Manchin: "Maybe he'll surprise people." — PolitiTweet.org

“some issues that will have zero Republican support that I will fight for,” he added, even though they “ain’t going to happen right now, and I recognize that.” Added: “I look forward” to making progress on areas where there's potential for “consensus and bipartisan work" — PolitiTweet.org
