Mike Lawler is a rubber stamp for Trump. With him on tariffs. Enabling him on war with Iran. Not doing anything to bring down costs. NY could do so much better.

Made my way up to where the Potomac Interceptor sewage pipe broke late last month just north of Cabin John, Md. The C&O Canal between locks 12 and 10 is being used to divert sewage around the broken portion; it’s essentially an open-air sewer at this point.

Hey @Amtrak! Your nextgen train experience was so different! Thanks for kicking everyone off the train in Philly and making us stand on a regional train for three hours to dc. What a fun 6.5 hours of travel!

@jrovner Yay, Julie!!

My driveway. 10 Days post storm. Please clap.

@burgessev Says with the straightest face imaginable: that’s funny. But seriously, it’s actually hilarious.

Whoa, she’s right — Dick Durbin is going to be on the Hill tomorrow

I really want to thank @willjawando’s staff for being so kind late last night and calling me about how our neighborhood streets were not plowed. You all are very good to your constituents. #montgomerycountymd @MontgomeryCo @MCDOTNow

@MCDOTNow Uhhh not in Mohican Hills we haven’t.

Good morning. ❄️Residents will begin to see some @MCDOTNow plows entering neighborhoods this morning. 🪏The snow emergency (free garage parking & on street parking rules) was extended through today. Updates ➡️montgomerycountymd.gov/SNOW/

The funding bills Congress still needs to pass by 1/30 are: Defense Homeland Security Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education Transportation, Housing and Urban Development Financial Services and General Government State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs on.

@SeanJCooksey Oh, man. And I was upset about the new Starbucks. See you in Cups.

I'd rather be dead in Cups than alive in this place.

@capitalweather So… clear often meaning get out there at 1 am and 4 am? Yikes!

🚨 Big, important forecast update: more ice, higher outage risk We’ve released a new map and revised the storm timeline. Here’s what’s changed — and what matters most: • Totals similar, but more sleet than before. Less pure snow, more sleet mixing in. Some spots could stack 1–3 inches of sleet on top of snow. • Nearly everyone flips to sleet. Even near the PA line. The change from snow → sleet may happen quickly south to north Sunday morning into early afternoon. • Freezing rain risk is rising. Especially south of the Beltway, where icing on trees and power lines raises power-outage concerns. We’re most worried from Fredericksburg to Southern Maryland. • Snow may start later Saturday night. Beltway likely after 10 p.m.; dinner plans probably OK if you’re home before late evening. • Not a blockbuster snow, but a severe storm. Faster changeover limits snow totals, but this will be high-impact because of cold temps before, during, and after. Expect a cement-like mix of snow + ice that won’t melt for days. • Clear early and often. Shovel and salt as it falls. If you wait until the end, this hardens fast and becomes much harder to remove.

@VerizonSupport @corbin_meier No, @VerizonSupport we can’t make WiFi calls. We are all done with you, now.

Hey, I understand reliable service is very important. It seems we are still experiencing service interruptions, our engineers are working to locate the issue, and get it resolved as quickly as possible. We currently do not have an estimated time for restoration of services. We apologize for any inconvience this may cause. You are still about to make Wi-Fi calls in the meantime.

Hi, @Verizon - it’s been like this ALL DAY!

@Tomdickanarry @MEPFuller While there is a leap of faith from the discharge petitions signers, they don’t have to ultimately vote for the bill if they don’t like the substitute amendment. There is no trust left in the House, it’s true… but don’t think this is possible.

@MEPFuller Dems should add reinstating the USAID funding to this ACA bill. Republicans are totally fucked if they don’t vote for the ACA bill. Might as well get something else added like they constantly do to Dems.

An aide close to the House GOP just pointed out that the Democratic discharge petition is actually for H.R. 1834 — a shell bill that touches every committee. In theory, this aide claimed, Dems could use this discharge petition to force a House vote on a Senate health care bill.

@MEPFuller Similar situation with Fitzpatrick discharge petition- This is a procedural move because I believe for a discharge petition a bill has to sit in a committee for 30 days. But all 3 discharge petitions (Jeffries, Gottheimer, Fitzpatrick) allow for a substitute amendment to be filed

I expect shows on @DisneyPlus to inspire my children to learn and/or be creative. This Karina Garcia show where she just plays with slime is ultimate drivel like you would expect on Chinese YouTube channels. I am deeply disappointed in @Disney.

@LilNuggetShy @MontgomeryCoMD @MCDOTNow Silly me - I thought that’s why I pay taxes to the county. I’ll just grab my elderly neighbors the next time it snows and we can slide down the icy street.

@emausten @MontgomeryCoMD @MCDOTNow You do it

❄️ Snow Emergency Ends Tonight ❄️ The County snow emergency will officially end at 10 p.m. today, Tuesday, Jan. 7. Parking fees and enforcement in County garages will resume at 7 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 8. Thanks for your cooperation during snow clearing efforts! Stay safe 🌨️

@MCDOTNow @CMEvanGlass @EvanMGlass Guess what. My street still hasn’t been plowed. And I can check your website but it doesn’t help my street.

@CMEvanGlass @emausten @EvanMGlass Good morning. Since that was 12 hours ago, can you check your streets status now using our website? ▶️montgomerycountymd.gov/snow/snow-stat…

I appreciate all the Montgomery County Department of Transportation staff who are working today to clear our sidewalks, plow our streets and operate our buses. @MCDOTNow

@CMEvanGlass With the lack of plowing in our neighborhoods, I hope people who need these services can access them. The county has failed its taxpayers yesterday and today.

MCPS Emergency Meal Service locations will open today between 12 and 2 pm. Use this link for locations and details: mcpsmd.info/food

@treeaston It’s just a rational thing to be

I don’t want anyone to ever ask me why I’m a Senate Snob ever again.
