This Senate Dem sentiment - not enough time to codify constitutional rights to gay & interracial marriage, and contraception - could become moot, depending on how big House R vote is with Dems. If many dozen Rs vote with Ds in a few mins, Senate will have to act quickly. — PolitiTweet.org

“Jerry Nadler isn’t just Jewish, he’s a person who lives and breathes Tikkun Olam." The last stand for NYC Jews in Congress, as can only be told by a son of NYC, a veteran of NYC tabs, the great @paulschwartzman A great read. https://t.co/Ujh08wEX5E — PolitiTweet.org

“He does feel like he’s the best option." That's @usstk on how Biden views '24 if Trump runs. When it comes to Biden's future, always listen to 2 people: Ted Kaufman & @mviser's reporting. https://t.co/ozCM2Hv1RU — PolitiTweet.org

Weekend @PKCapitol: Manchin is odd pol whose private comments to colleagues have less value than public chats with media. It understandably infuriates Dems. Ask @RepJayapal: "not an honest negotiator ... lies to his own president ... not interested." https://t.co/G7URjPmyuZ — PolitiTweet.org

in·de·fat·i·ga·ble - adjective. (of a person or their efforts) persisting tirelessly. That term fits @GabbyGiffords to a T, just as it also describes @ktumulty and all she does. Here, Karen takes the full arc of Giffords' career. https://t.co/VCnTnXr0rQ — PolitiTweet.org

Actually, I think she asked to get to Cannon. An even more difficult task than Longworth. — PolitiTweet.org

Deep in Rayburn basement, a younger staff just asked directions to Longworth. I did the best I could. Yet I still fear she might get lost & never be heard from again. “It’s so confusing,” she said. Amen, Godspeed. — PolitiTweet.org

I spent a lotta time in 2019 with @DelgadoforNY in his Upstate NY district, where all he did was laser focused on bread-butter issues. Now, @daveweigel discovers his successor's plan: "Nationalize this race ... a national referendum on Roe." Must read. https://t.co/xDDUNtYf9s — PolitiTweet.org

In 2010 Kinzinger & Noem were star GOP recruits, each defeating Dem incumbents. AK, 32 at time, Noem, 38 then, were hailed as future of the House GOP. Noem actually hated the House, returning to SD to get away from DC spotlight. Now she’s all in MAGA, AK is in exile. — PolitiTweet.org

Weekend @PKCapitol: No lawmaker did more to fight 1/6 rioters than @MarkwayneMullin - linked arms with cops, was ready to fight to the death. “I’d put you down,” he told one. Now he’s on verge of becoming a MAGA Senate star. Perception trumps all. https://t.co/vmGx6OD0ig — PolitiTweet.org

When I wrote the West Side vs East Side column a few weeks back, I only made passing reference to Maloney's 2020 primary opponent. I should've made more mention of @surajpatelnyc - with ads like this, he will be a 3rd force in Maloney v Nadler. 🔥🔥 https://t.co/y6VTwIxyt1 — PolitiTweet.org

“Cassidy Hutchinson is under oath on Capitol Hill. The president is on Truth Social making his statements … the testimony in and of itself is really, really powerful.” - @BretBaier on Fox daytime when 1/6 hearing ends. The cohosts paused for 5 seconds not knowing what to say. — PolitiTweet.org

"Listen, all of this is first hand. So it's from her listening to it. That's why it's so compelling." - @BretBaier 's view on Fox, during the 1/6 hearing break. That view might not make it onto Fox primetime, but daytime viewers are getting BB: "This testimony is stunning." — PolitiTweet.org
