@PostScottWilson You’re so California now, Wilson. The Intel committee - House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence - issued its big report and rather than some long link with letters/words/987:$, they just made the link end with: /report — PolitiTweet.org

Jack Evans, don't call your office. Because your fellow DC council members are probably cleaning it out already. Via @FenitN https://t.co/6yBlsULcWF — PolitiTweet.org

2 semi-substantive As: McConnell said Kemp’s appointment to replace Isakson is “terrific” and “we will all be behind her”. And he outlined 3 obvious scenarios of a trial: bipartisan rules package, partisan one, roaming coalition package. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

McConnell took 8 Qs, mostly impeachment related. His As included: “... a House issue ... don’t have any advice ... all in the House ... No ... I don’t have any particular reaction ... There is no answer.” — PolitiTweet.org

I would like to know how long HPSCI Dems debated over what to call the link, before they just settled on: /report https://t.co/AqLG4nHHgd — PolitiTweet.org

Filling in for Senate food correspondent @seungminkim - senators are having a southern barbecue buffet (with food set up outside Mansfield) at the incredibly rare bipartisan lunch in honor of @JohnnyIsakson ‘s farewell luncheon. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

Not sure I can recall a bipartisan, all-senator luncheon to honor one departing senator. That's what @JohnnyIsakson gets tomorrow, per leadership readout: "Senate will recess from 12:30pm until 2:15pm for a bipartisan caucus luncheon honoring Senator Isakson." — PolitiTweet.org

@seungminkim @nielslesniewski In defense of this, there are now things beyond spellcheck - we have “Tansa” - that autocorrect stuff. Their rigidity sometimes inserts mistakes (ours always changes Paul Ryan to Paul D. Ryan even in someone’s quotes about “Paul Ryan is never gonna ..”). — PolitiTweet.org

@brianros1 @StuPolitics I agree that he’s not worth $11. — PolitiTweet.org

@StuPolitics Just saw this. I’m stunned. They had so little value after being everyday players for 4 seasons, it was easier to just release them? No trade value? None? Such an indictment of our minor/major player development. — PolitiTweet.org

"... some in the Ukrainian embassy in Washington worked with a Democrat operative to achieve that goal. While Democrats reflexively dismiss these truths as conspiracy theories, the facts are indisputable and bear heavily on the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry." 2/2 — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

Interesting to see how many Senate Rs, in a trial, use this assessment from House Rs: "Publicly available—and irrefutable—evidence shows how senior Ukrainian government officials sought to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election in opposition to President Trump ..." 1/2 — PolitiTweet.org

@Enviro_Doggo Separate jurisdictions. One is federal courts, the other is Congress, which has sole discretion over seating (or unseating) its membership as a separation of powers. It is perfunctory for admitted felons to resign after their plea. If not House would move to expel. — PolitiTweet.org

Even if Hunter hangs around a few more weeks, in time for impeachment, before resigning, 216 is still the magic number in a 431-member House. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

With guilty plea, Hunter is certain to also resign from Congress. That will create 5th vacancy - Katie Hill, Cummings, Chris Collins, Duffy, Hunter. Magic # for impeachment will be 216. With 233 Dems, 196 Rs, 1 Indy (Amash, a likely yes on impeach). https://t.co/f8aPkTXxna — PolitiTweet.org

Am I only one seeing Star Wars ads trumpeting Dec 20 debut thinking that’s possibly the day Trump gets impeached? And the gov’t has shuts down? We may need real Jedi to get DC out of coming mess. — PolitiTweet.org

This IA voter ⁦@daveweigel⁩ spoke with sums up head vs heart debate: “We don't have the money for it. I love their passion. ... [But] If I want a rib-eye steak, but I only have money for a hamburger, do I starve to death? Or do I buy the hamburger?" https://t.co/4hKYGQxFtY — PolitiTweet.org
