Pelosi is well aware some House Dems stuck out their necks, politically, in supporting impeachment proceedings. "We have to have a ‘M.A.S.H.’ team to protect those who may be more in danger,” she tells the great @ktumulty https://t.co/m9AxIExvNb — PolitiTweet.org

"You don’t get to be speaker by oversharing," @RahmEmanuel writes in WaPo op-ed. He's fully on board with @SpeakerPelosi strategy, although thinks a Senate censure should be fall-back option. https://t.co/XIpdio4hZw — PolitiTweet.org

@KennethBaer @seungminkim Modern GMs - “modern” - will not hire experienced winning managers. They are only willing to hire really cheap managers (think backup infielders who haven’t hit arbitration and make $800k). Because GMs think managing is just data. Hence: Kapler, Martinez, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

“We voted on articles of impeachment on a Friday,” Lott said. Days later Clinton called to talk legislation. “Never mentioned the impeachment trial.” 1999 vs 2019, it’s different. With huge @seungminkim assist, a deep dive with Lott, Daschle, Rahm. https://t.co/GzpRHKo5aP — PolitiTweet.org

Nats will rememberer if this turns into a special run: "hit batter" call on Michael A., broken-bat single by pinch-hitting Zim. The miscue in RF never happens without those. Deep state Phillie phans still remember Victorino & Stairs ABs in pre-WS moments in 2008. — PolitiTweet.org

@benpershing To Ben’s point: Nats also made a late September offer last year to Harper that was well below anticipated market value, then a story appeared saying Bryce had rejected it. Then Bryce left. It might be same pattern again with Rendon. — PolitiTweet.org

Great @rachaelmbade @mikedebonis inside look at how Pelosi pushed aside Nadler & Judiciary Committee, after several weeks of "rudderless" hearings, in favor of Schiff and Intel. “This investigation has found the proper home," one Dem says. https://t.co/0JPrUHLFOr — PolitiTweet.org

@nielslesniewski @MattGlassman312 If they have a simple majority to dismiss the charges, early in trial, they'll just do that. Or, McConnell will force this into a short, 5-day trial -- opening statements (Mon), prosecution presents (Tues), defense counters (Wed), jury deliberates (in private, Thurs), vote (Fri). — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

A useful thread. But more likely disposal vehicle is a motion to dismiss charges early in a Senate impeachment trial. Byrd did this in ‘99 (failing on a 44-56 vote, with Feingold joining 55 Rs to continue trial). In this scenario trial begins but simple majority ends it early. — PolitiTweet.org
