Weekend @PKCapitol: Washington’s most powerful trade associations are hunting for a “Back to Normal” formula of consumer confidence. But they can’t control irresponsible individuals in covid era & a federal gov’t unwilling to set real guidelines. https://t.co/o1c6H5VG36 — PolitiTweet.org

@brianros1 I had the high privilege of playing “Carnasty” couple years ago. Loopers had to physically turn my body to the right to show me where VDV hit his drive on 18. It was so bad. — PolitiTweet.org

So, some were calling it Cares 2, but then House Dems dubbed it Heroes Act. Senate Rs haven't weighed in yet. For now, I side with @APAndrewTaylor & Covid 5, or Phase 5. Or, if you like Roman numerals, Covid V. — PolitiTweet.org

Random legislative lexicon: Mnuchin referenced "Cares 4". No one is calling it Cares 4. There was Cares Act (the 3rd covid health/econ rescue package) That was followed by $484b SBA plan, w/ PPP expansion. So, we are on to 5th covid package. CC: @ericawerner @Phil_Mattingly — PolitiTweet.org

A lotta people are asking, what is Biden doing all this time? One thing: Raising tons of money. As Trump hits a huge $$$$ number for June, Biden/DNC top them by $10 million. Via @myhlee @AnnieLinskey https://t.co/SlGhnSNpET — PolitiTweet.org

For weeks, as QAnon-aligned candidates won primaries, Rs shrugged it off as races that didn't matter - until Colorado. Now, in a battleground, Rs nominated someone who's at least Q Curious. NRCC is all in. W/ @ColbyItkowitz @daveweigel @byamberphillips https://t.co/ZfWexibED9 — PolitiTweet.org

Apologies to those other Biden poolers, but tonight's @AnnieLinskey gem traverses so many Star Wars and football metaphors, while capturing interesting details about the Bidens. "Stop trying to make me love you." Dr. B's note to Joe on his bathroom mirror. — PolitiTweet.org

@barackfan1 @daveweigel 2003 was UD’s last national title! I went to a game that season. They were great. The 2010 Hens were last team to get to a title game - ESPN had Biden doing analysis in the booth in 2nd quarter, then we blew an 19-pt lead in 4thQ. Biden was devastated. — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting from @StuPolitics: Trump "must pray he can once again squeeze out an Electoral College victory while losing the popular vote by a larger margin than in 2016." Even most Rs I speak with doubt Trump has a path to winning popular vote. — PolitiTweet.org

I've never understood conservative legal strategy in pushing another ACA case to this SCOTUS. Senate Rs hate the politics of it, plus Roberts has already upheld ACA twice. Given this month, he doesn't look like he's about to reverse stride. A 3rd ruling would really lock ACA in — PolitiTweet.org

Just a pitch perfect @barrysvrluga piece on the restoration of DC's 3 public golf courses. Fixing them up, while keeping affordable, might broaden interest to a younger, diverse crowd. "The face of this game has to change if it's going to grow." https://t.co/MPW08gvk3v — PolitiTweet.org

2015 campaign against the Iran nuclear deal ran similar ads. They were so far fetched, ad makers looked as if they were just grifting to collect a check. Ads like this really make you wonder what DJT’s media team are attempting. — PolitiTweet.org

Founded in 1971, CBC is about to turn 50 in style: * Pelosi completely deferred to CBC on police reform; * Clyburn delivered nom to Biden; * 3 CBC members finalists for VP; * up to 6 chair gavels in 2021; * HJ stock rising. Via @rachaelmbade @karoun https://t.co/5vvwUgvxgk — PolitiTweet.org

Amazing pull here by Bryan. The Boardwalk Empire folks actually had a 1920s/early ‘30s scene invoking Joe Kennedy the 1st - Amy’s late grandfather-in-law - meeting with AC power broker. Now, she’s the outsider, with just 1 county’s support; Atlantic. — PolitiTweet.org

If you don't know Jersey, this is my best try: "Norcross, a private businessman, does not technically hold an official party position but his influence resembles a character from the HBO show “Boardwalk Empire,” about Atlantic City during Prohibition." https://t.co/Khqe3hyvzx — PolitiTweet.org
