Russia promised to reduce violence in Ukraine as a means of pursuing possible peace talks. The White House reacted with deep skepticism, with government officials suggesting that the Kremlin was simply redirecting, not ending, its invasion. https://t.co/Zfqhz8EJsS — PolitiTweet.org

The White House said it would not invoke executive privilege over the testimony of Jared Kushner or Ivanka Trump. The move comes as the Jan. 6 select committee looks to decipher Kushner’s role in the events surrounding the attack on the Capitol. https://t.co/DBs0tA6usd — PolitiTweet.org

The Biden administration has been imploring Congress to renew billions in Covid pandemic relief. Without it, hard-fought gains will be lost, maybe even reversed, officials say. Here’s how bad inaction on Covid funding can get 👇 https://t.co/J5w02fY9Gq — PolitiTweet.org

One thing the Senate Judiciary Committee can agree on: The Freedom of Information Act is a mess. The law allowing members of the public to request federal agency records is hobbled by "massive backlogs" and mountains of electronic data, lawmakers say. https://t.co/OvyCzIpAGK — PolitiTweet.org

The White House said there was nothing unusual about its ties to Schmidt and that ethical issues were promptly handled. A science office spokesperson disputed the idea that its work dovetailed with his priorities and noted its efforts to regulate AI use. https://t.co/EFw28SYvUD — PolitiTweet.org

Biden's science office sets priorities for annual U.S. health and science spending. It has increasingly focused on artificial intelligence. Its legal team regularly flagged potential conflicts of interests related to Schmidt, a board member and investor in AI-focused companies. https://t.co/fwB7X2XybB — PolitiTweet.org

The idea of Schmidt's foundation funding salaries on the science office staff sparked “significant” ethical concerns, given his financial interests in the areas that overlap with its responsibilities. https://t.co/EFw28SYvUD — PolitiTweet.org

Google billionaire Eric Schmidt had an unusual influence on Biden's science office. His foundation helped cover salaries of two employees. One is now the chief of staff. Over a dozen officials there have been associates —sometimes employees — of Schmidt. https://t.co/EFw28SYvUD — PolitiTweet.org

POLITICO @politico

Google's former CEO has long sought influence over U.S. science policy. Under the Biden admin, Eric Schmidt’s foundation helped cover the salaries of some in the White House’s science office — prompting its legal team to raise ethical flags. https://t.co/EFw28SYvUD — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin is throwing out July 4 as a new possible deadline for a slimmed down social spending bill. But that doesn't mean he's feeling the pressure. "I'm not saying anything's gonna be done," he added. https://t.co/mlPX9Ivflg — PolitiTweet.org

Disclosures about Justice Clarence Thomas’ wife advising Trump’s White House to keep up its fight to overturn the election results spurred a public outcry, but that outrage won’t easily translate to changes in lax ethics policies at the Supreme Court https://t.co/MNwIR9aQAL — PolitiTweet.org
