He cannot win confirmation w/o the acquiescence of Thom Tillis and John Cornyn.

🚨This is a very big deal for farm state Republican lawmakers and US cattle ranchers

[Kristen Holmes @KristenhCNN]

President Trump is expected to nominate Todd Blanche to be attorney general as soon as tonight, a source familiar with the matter tells me.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

Over 200 people killed so far, some who seem likely to have died agonizing deaths by drowning after clinging to wreckage for hours, with no trials, and without a single piece of evidence released to the public of their guilt or of any intent to smuggle drugs to the United States.

Jennifer Welch: “Boycott every fucking thing on CBS News. From the morning all the way through to the evening. These are the same people that fired Stephen Colbert because Trump got his feelings hurt by a comedian. These people are the biggest bunch of pussies that masquerade with these grandstanding letters like they’re such badasses. These people don’t care about the truth, they don’t care about journalism, they don’t care about the Constitution, they don’t care about a free press. It’s just absolutely devastating what these oligarchs have done to our country”

It’s a clown show of liars.

[Mark Warner @MarkWarner]

It seems there is an entirely different set of rules for Republicans and Democrats.

[Jake Sherman @JakeSherman]

MCCONNELL on PULTE at DNI:

“Very few Senate-confirmable positions come with statutory eligibility requirements. There are good reasons why the Director of National Intelligence is one of them. Anyone performing this role of such immense public trust must have the extensive national security experience required by statute, and no nominee who falls short of this requirement will earn my vote.”

"Trickle down economics doesn't work, so let's try piñata economics. That's the one where we beat the billionaires until the hoarded wealth falls out."

Big defeat for House GOP

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

House Democrats and only 4 Republicans just voted to pass a War Powers Resolution to end Trump's war in Iran.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Trump hasn’t made a public appearance in 8 days. This after an unscheduled visit to the hospital- because he “likes getting check ups.” Thank God Jake Tapper (or as I like to call him- the Brick Tamland of his generation) is on the case hunting down clues in a book about my mom’s experience as First Lady four years ago.

[Zach Schermele @ZachSchermele]

“Mr. President Trump, get engaged!!”

A visibly upset Cassidy just screamed at Trump on the Senate floor over healthcare costs, saying he needs to get personally involved in Congress’ efforts to lower them.

[SSton @SharinStone]

@StateDept So why are we continuing to fund Israel?

[SSton @SharinStone]

@RepLuna @SecState Your buddy Putin is doing it.

[Shadow of Ezra @ShadowofEzra]

Netanyahu says it was his plan to merge the U.S. and Israeli militaries together as one.

99% of Congress has remained silent.

[Michael Rectenwald, Ph.D. @RecTheRegime]

Netanyahu is the source of the IDF-U.S. military merger. He wants to make our military israeli property. The vote on this NDAA is tomorrow. Section 224 must be scrapped. Those who can should call their senators and demand the NDAA not pass with this provision or our sovereignty is officially gone.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Really Retro. Who did I sell access too? Show me one legitimate shred of evidence I sold access. But even if you believe all the BS about me, how is it your okay with this:
Don Jr. is a partner in a venture firm whose companies pulled more than $735 million in federal contracts in a single year. One, a tiny magnet startup, landed a $620 million Pentagon loan, the largest that office had ever made, months after his firm bought in. Its valuation went from $200 million to $2 billion.
Eric is a strategic investor in an Israeli drone maker going public at $1.5 billion. Drones the Pentagon buys. For the war their father runs.
And Don Jr. opened a private club in Washington. To join: $500,000.

[Turnbull @cturnbull1968]

We spent 4 years listening to Don Jr and Eric ask, “where’s Hunter.”

He’s right here and both of those slippery weasels are nowhere to be found.

[SSton @SharinStone]

@WhiteHouse @StateDept He’s a disaster and coward.
