@wexler Ohh how I miss the Italian Store 🤩

Joe Biden, while swearing in political appointees, says, "If you're ever working with me and I hear you treated another colleague with disrespect — talk down to someone — I promise I will fire you on the spot. On the spot...Everybody is entitled to be treated with decency."

The back story of that amazing poem

[Amanda Faulkner Khouri @amandafkhouri]

I just feel so relieved.

If condoning the President’s behavior is required to stay in the Party’s good graces, I’m just fine being on the outs.

[Amanda Faulkner Khouri @amandafkhouri]

Unreal to watch the party of “Law and Order” and “Blue Lives Matter” now shoving past the same metal detectors their staffers are subjected to daily and defying USCP not one week after these officers put their lives on the line to keep members safe. The hypocrisy knows no bounds.

A Senate Republican aide tells me he thinks there were about 20, give or take, Republicans who were *open* to a conviction

Before our story on McConnell

As stunning as Rs moving against Trump would be, the alternative is that he sticks around and makes their lives/careers hell for the next four years (at least.) If that's going to happen anyway, a clean break looks pretty attractive. Now or never. https://t.co/48gH0jhq96

One of the defining features of this era has been the most fragile of snowflakes, the brittlest of spirits, masquerading as confrontational tough guys.

BREAKING - PENCE DECLARES: “The whole number of electors appointed to vote for President of the US is 538, of which a majority is 270....Joseph R Biden, of the state of Delaware received for President of the US, 306 votes. Donald J Trump of the state of Florida has received 232.”

@beckytallent Yes we are

[Abby D. Phillip @abbydphillip]

Hawley's argument is that Congress is the venue for objecting to the election. It is not. Concerns about specific state elections should and were raised in the courts. They were rejected. There is no venue for Congress to adjudicate and resolve those issues.

[Rachel Delphin @RachyMills]

decrying / focusing on "violence against law enforcement" just feels like a big ole dog whistle.

[Amanda Faulkner Khouri @amandafkhouri]

*whispers*

...and yesterday’s

[Amanda Faulkner Khouri @amandafkhouri]

Infuriating. Something like 14 arrests made all day. Just a glaring double standard when compared with the force deployed during the protests over the summer.

[Kate Nocera @KateNocera]

i cant really wrap my head around the fact people who violently breached the building, and trashed it were allowed to just...leave the capitol.
