@bresreports Hence the problem for pro sports, ESPN and their massive broadcast $$$ backers. They need to produce games that people will see for advertisers - ManningCast is great to catch a few casual viewers but not many to watch the entire game that way. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

The groupthink acceptance of the ManningCast brilliance illustrates a big sports TV problem: young viewers don't want to watch actual games, they watch highlights, clips on social media, tune in briefly to Mannings. It's a flashing red warning sign to sports media $$ future. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin McCarthy has a 218 problem -- if House Rs win majority next November, the MAGA squad may try to block his path to winning speaker vote Jan. 3, 2023. Great stuff from @JaxAlemany @theodoricmeyer @MariannaReports https://t.co/nYBCzqQi1C — PolitiTweet.org

For Philly Phans of a certain generation, that Hurts TD remind us of another star: #FlyEaglesFly https://t.co/FERMJNoPpA — PolitiTweet.org

@dcmrobinson Flying, Eagles, flying. That’s what. — PolitiTweet.org

Wow, that’s a half. Let’s not get anyone hurt in second half. Keep running the ball. #FlyEaglesFly — PolitiTweet.org

“Great job by replay to …” Feels as if I’ve not agreed with those words since replay upheld Ertz TD to win Super Bowl. Wow, nice start so far. #FlyEaglesFly — PolitiTweet.org

“When I do say something, I mean it.” That’s @kyrstensinema summing up continued support for Senate filibuster in interview with @seungminkim @TonyRomm And @mikedebonis outlines how Sinema won’t touch filibuster to pass voting/democracy bills. https://t.co/3J0gUNeK5j — PolitiTweet.org

These @jabinbotsford photos of 24 hours in the Capitol - and he was there a full day, straight - are fantastic. I especially love the Hitchcock-esque birds flying over the Capitol. With text by @MariannaReports https://t.co/6QcfCmPhNl — PolitiTweet.org

Here's the list of members who submitted proxy-voting letters, to vote in absentia on the most consequential vote of this Congress. 105 of them, I'm told reliably. The lines on each side are deep for members to cast their vote. https://t.co/k29nuBEPz8 — PolitiTweet.org

Just a few years ago McCarthy was a junior GOP leader who Dems liked. Work out with them in House gym, invite on bike rides. Not last night. Now it's just disdain. Our look at McCarthy's marathon, with @MariannaReports on lead vocals & @JaxAlemany https://t.co/7jMdpg1GLp — PolitiTweet.org

He’s now crested 4 hours. A bunch of House Rs came to floor after Hoyer announced no vote tonight. But he kept talking. So there are only about 20 Rs left, less than a handful of Dems. A really odd night, now morning. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

Hoyer says theyll let McCarthy speak all he wants tonight. Then reconvene at 8 am. They’ll pass the $2.1 trillion boll “in the daylight,” Hoyer tells us. — PolitiTweet.org

Hoyer tells @mkraju and me; no vote tonight. — PolitiTweet.org

Coming up on 3 hours, 15 minutes. Fwiw: this doesn't even rank when it compares to Senate filibusters, the 5 longest of which topped 16 hours. https://t.co/mJevQIt6D7 — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

He's crossed over 2 hours now. Longer than @SpeakerBoehner's "Fili-Boehner" in 2009 cap & trade vote. Pelosi went 8 hours in 2018. These "magic minutes" that go this long are always done by minority leader. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

FWIW, the "Pennsylvania Corner" crew did loudly heckle McCarthy. "We're leaving you, Kevin!" one shouted as they left chamber. Otherwise, it's not as hot in here as McCarthy is portraying it to be. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

McCarthy is doing it for effect. Dems are just bored & talking amongst themselves. They aren't trying to interrupt him. It's a low murmur, but he clearly wants these interruptions. Each stop just delays vote. Anyway, he's now been going more than 75 minutes. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

McCarthy began speaking: 8:38 pm. As minority leader, he can speak as long as he wishes -- "magic minute," as they say. This is last delay tactic House Rs have until inevitable passage of $2.1 trillion BBB/reconciliation/whatever you wanna call it. How long will he go? ... — PolitiTweet.org

Rep @GKButterfield is a savvy behind-scenes operator, a force inside Black Caucus. Very close ally of @WhipClyburn & also one of @SpeakerPelosi's most trusted hands when it comes to overseeing debate. Many a key bill have seen GK wielding gavel. https://t.co/cAKqn0F3hP — PolitiTweet.org

And in 10 months, she's cast that tie-breaking vote 13 times, helping confirm nominees & advance legislation. That's as many tie-breaking votes as Pence had in his entire 4 years. 2/2 https://t.co/sNhXGnOyvx — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

Some really good Perry points here. It is an odd job with little definition. In Year 1, Biden wasn't some superstar VP. Her single most important role was Jan. 20, swearing in Ossoff & Warnock & becoming tie-breaking vote to give Dems majority. 1/2 — PolitiTweet.org
