Remember “skinny repeal”? 3 years ago this week Senate Rs were so divided on ACA repeal they just tried to pass a placeholder bill to buy negotiating time (McCain’s thumbs down ended that). Rs might be heading for “skinny Covid relief”. https://t.co/6zIg6ZVxhI — PolitiTweet.org

Really smart @seungminkim @rachaelmbade here: All GOP tension points right now - Senate Rs fighting Trump on covid 5 bill, House conservatives attacking Cheney, fights over who to back in primaries - stems from one thing. Trump is losing. https://t.co/9INyFJQYi4 — PolitiTweet.org

A few years later, he walked through the old States News Service newsroom, looked up at me and said, "Excuse me did we hang out at the Irish Times?" Preston and I worked together for 7 of the next 8 years. Not only a great guy, the man can place an F-bomb better than anyone. — PolitiTweet.org

My first full day here, in a group house found in City Paper ads, my new roommates said "Presty" was back in DC, en route to Marietta for a newspaper job. We hung out at Irish Times, and 25 years later @PrestonCNN remains as good a guy as there is in DC. Happy birthday. — PolitiTweet.org

Freedom Caucus launches attack on @RepLizCheney, the highest ranking female Republican, over charges of disloyalty to Trump. Calls come from @gaetz & @DonaldJTrumpJr for Cheney to face leadership challenge. She fires back at Jordan. W/ @rachaelmbade https://t.co/rMmSLXjsL2 — PolitiTweet.org

"This is five now," Hoyer says on call with reporters. Clearly siding with @ericawerner 's declaration that we are on Phase V, or as @APAndrewTaylor likes to say, "covid 5". A $484 billion package -- refilling PPP & expanding other SBA programs -- clearly counts as a phase. — PolitiTweet.org

Also, Mnuchin & Meadows arrived to meet senior Senate Rs discussing "the bill". There is no bill, not yet. And this is just the R-negotiating-with-R side of the equation. There's still Pelosi to deal with. Gonna take a while. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

As Senate Rs returned to Capitol this evening, they made clear that they don't like the admin proposals on payroll tax cut, eliminating additional testing $$$. They're lukewarm on individual checks (Trump loves this). So, deep breaths everyone, it's gonna take several weeks. — PolitiTweet.org

Sunday's A1 @PKCapitol: John Lewis cast such a long, morally just shadow that every president sought its comfort. Reagan said he got us closer MLK's "dream". W drew line from Selma to voting rights. "It's because of you, John," Obama wrote. Until Trump. https://t.co/01lNkYisvo — PolitiTweet.org

John Lewis, a life unlike just about any other. Read this full, moving, sweeping obituary for the man who defied elders' admonitions to stay out of trouble. Instead, he said again and again, it was time to get into "good trouble." RIP. https://t.co/p9qjsRzfPD — PolitiTweet.org

@KevinMaddenDC @Phil_Mattingly We're upon the 10-yr anniversary of that Bengals football. I discovered, at the HOF gift shop in Canton, that it yelled "who dat" every time you hit it, I knew the boys would love it. And their mother would hate it. — PolitiTweet.org
