“I can sit down with my Republican friends and find a pathway forward,” says Manchin. “Let me try first.” “People can talk to whoever they want to talk to, but this country faces enormous crises,” argues Bernie. “Elections have consequences. We’re in the majority” — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer called Murray “Sen. Moishe” at today’s presser and her eye roll was priceless — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer says he will try and open up the Senate floor but says “bold” action is most important. No big process commitments on more amendments, working longer weeks, but says he wants Senate to be more productive than under McConnell — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
Schumer says he told senators the Senate could vote on a budget resolution next week. Says he wants to work with Rs on covid but is willing to use reconciliation — PolitiTweet.org

Rand predicts today’s point of order will show there aren’t the votes to convict Trump: “If 34 people support my resolution that this is an unconstitutional proceeding it shows they don’t have the votes and we’re basically wasting our time” — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Durbin on Sen. Paul’s plans to offer point of order on impeachment: “he has a wealth of unusual ideas” — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
He says it’s unnecessary but doesn’t totally rule it out if that’s what it takes to get Mayorkas confirmed — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
! Durbin says that Senate Democrats are exploring whether $15 minimum wage can be done with reconciliation. He seems optimistic that it could — PolitiTweet.org

There's a theory that ACA repeal would have happened without restrictions of reconciliation, in 2017 Hard to say for sure, obviously. But reconciliation is more limited unless the majority party takes more aggressive action to rewrite reconciliation rules — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
Republicans ask Durbin to have a hearing on Mayorkas in Judiciary Committee in addition to his Homeland Security hearing. Could delay Biden's DHS nominee further “All Members of the Committee should have the opportunity to hear from Mr. Mayorkas directly" — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
McConnell basically says getting rid of legislative filibuster will turn the Senate into total chaos, objections on every routine action, etc. "Finally the shoe would find it's way onto the other foot" "We'd be able to repeal every bill they rammed through" — PolitiTweet.org

@davidpopp @LeaderMcConnell What sport is he playing? — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
Last night, Hawley said he will vote against Mayorkas for DHS in committee today but not seek to hold him over a week. So Biden’s DHS nominee could be ready for floor soon — PolitiTweet.org

@marianne_levine @meridithmcgraw Still think GOP leaders might convict? On Tuesday, Senate Republicans will hear from Jonathan Turley, a conservative legal scholar who says the impeachment is “at odds” with the Constitution, according to two sources familiar with meeting — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
@marianne_levine @meridithmcgraw Trump “has the potential to continue to have a major influence on the party,” says Romney. But his influence “was significantly diminished by his perpetuation of the 'Big Lie.' That he won the election and that it was stolen ... clinging to the lie will diminish his influence" — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
@marianne_levine @meridithmcgraw Almost no Senate Rs defending Trump. Tremendous contrast from last year's impeachment trial. Braun, Barrasso indicate they won't hustle to cameras to defend Trump. Even Hawley says "The ex-president's rhetoric on the day was inflammatory. I think it was irresponsible." — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
@marianne_levine @meridithmcgraw Brian Jack, Trump’s former political director, quietly informed Senate Rs over the weekend that the 3rd-party thing is bunk. Tump may play in primaries against those who convict them More Cramer: “The Republican Party is still overwhelmingly supportive of this president.” — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: Trump letting GOP senators know he's still Republican ... right before Trump's second impeachment trial Cramer: “The president wanted me to know, as well as a handful of others, that the president is a Republican" @marianne_levine @meridithmcgraw https://t.co/ps5FXhEkbB — PolitiTweet.org

I have to say that it is kind of amazing that McConnell waited until Schumer's first big TV interview, with Maddow no less, to break this news — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer agreed to nothing but Manchin and Sinema said ... what they had already said before, perhaps more emphatically. Anyway, McConnell reads Politico! — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin and Sinema were enough for McConnell to relent “Today two Democratic Senators publicly confirmed they will not vote to end the legislative filibuster ... With these assurances, I look forward to moving ahead with a power-sharing agreement modeled on that precedent.” — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Ernst: "President Trump exhibited poor leadership and holds some responsibility for the anarchy that ensued at the heart of our democracy ... . My concern right now is that the president is no longer in office. Congress would be opening itself to a dangerous standard" — PolitiTweet.org
