@DanRather Aren’t they?

We’re apparently playing the “Things you can’t make up” game this morning. So Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett (speaking at a center named after Mitch McConnell, introduced by Senator McConnell) worries that the Court is seen as "a bunch of partisan hacks."

@thehill Starting with you!

Sen. Rand Paul on infrastructure: "We should be paying for this bill and doing it by cutting waste and excessive spending from other parts of the budget."

@thehill Does he even realize what he said? Think back before the election. The rules didn’t apply to you and your party.

Sen. Ted Cruz: "Today's Democrats are about power. So if the rules stand in the way, the heck with the rules, ignore them." hill.cm/bU0aXqs

@thehill @GOPLeader He did not create this crisis. You and your fellow Republicans created this mess. You need work to clean it with the democrats.

.@GOPLeader: "[Biden] has created this crisis that he won't acknowledge, that he won't even go visit to see, and now he's denying press from even to watch or see what's happening in the border stations."

@thehill @tedcruz You and yours created this mess. Let’s place the blame where it belongs.

Sen. @tedcruz: "I'm down at the Texas border along with 18 senators. We made the trip to see the crisis that is playing out."

@thehill Boohoo. You are so mistreated.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: "There's real voter suppression that happens right here in Congress. Many members of Congress have to stand in long lines to enter the chamber, going through metal detectors, emptying our pockets, and being treated very disrespectfully."

@AnnieGrayerCNN Why aren’t we doing this to Hawley and Cruz?

Democratic leadership laying down the gauntlet on Marjorie Taylor Greene: Steny Hoyer is expected to tell Kevin McCarthy he has 72 hours to strip Marjorie Taylor Greene of her committee assignments or Democrats will bring the issue to the House floor, a source familiar tells me.

@mitchellreports @SenatorShaheen Article I, Section 5, of the United States Constitution provides that "Each House [of Congress] may determine the Rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two-thirds, expel a member."

@mitchellreports @SenatorShaheen It is treason. He should be expelled from the senate

On Hawley saying he'll object to Electoral College certification, @SenatorShaheen: " I think it's outrageous. More than that, it borders on sedition or treason." #AMRstaff

@JoeBiden president elect Biden. You need to rally the democrats and any republicans that care about our country and democracy and charge all those with treason in standing to disrupt against the people’s vote of a new presidency.

@waltshaub Have they actually@looked at the number of deaths caused by the flu for the past few years. No where near 200k. Makes@me@so frustrated when people say@flu kills more@people@than the covid. Really!

@thehill Good

President Trump: "If I lose to [Joe Biden], I don't know what I'm going to do -- I will never speak to you again. You'll never see me again."

@waltshaub And it’s sad that’s it’s coming to this. He is inciting hatred and violence

@SpeakerPelosi @USPS So why take a break Nancy. We should be knocking on every door to find out why this happening. Do something

The Postal Service is a pillar of American Democracy. President Trump’s assault on @USPS threatens to starve it of the funds that it needs to deliver Americans’ absentee ballots. The President’s actions and even his own words confirm: he needs to cheat to win. #DontMessWithUSPS

@waltshaub Exactly!! There is a lot at stake and they are on break.

@RBReich And calls the Democrats evil.

The GOP including $0 for the USPS, $0 for our elections, and $21,300,000,000 for the Pentagon in a COVID relief bill is the real looting in America.

@SpeakerPelosi @USPS Yes do something about it

The smooth functioning of the @USPS during the COVID-19 pandemic is a matter of life-or-death, and is critical for protecting lives, livelihoods and the life of our democracy. Postmaster General DeJoy must reverse new policies which accelerate the crisis at the Postal Service.

Today, @SpeakerPelosi and I met with the head of USPS We demanded they end the egregious regulations they put in place that are delaying mail—medicine, paychecks, absentee ballots, more A fully functioning postal service is essential to ensuring every mail-in ballot is counted

The United States Postal Service is vital to ensuring that people have access to essential goods like medicine, toiletries, and voter ballots. RT if you agree the Postal Service shouldn’t be maximized for profits.

@thehill He didn’t apologize! He said it. He got caught and now he’s deflecting.

"I also think when someone apologizes they should be forgiven. I don't understand that we're going to take another hour on the floor to debate whether the apology was good enough or not," he said. hill.cm/x077Wns
