@FoxNews This would be news if Disney was one of the few corporations doing it. All sides receive substantial donations from most corporations. "Fair & balanced" coverage would cover it all.

@SenateGOP @HouseGOP You are now OWNED by forces that want to end our democracy & establish an autocracy. You had the opportunity to defend the constitution & instead twisted its clear intent to cover your weakness.

@LeaderMcConnell You probably believe you threaded the needle today. Someday when you are sitting in a rocking chair you will suddenly understand the travesty you commited & be filled with remorse. Regardless of the future, you didn't fulfill your oath.

Why is anybody surprised? This is who he is & who he has always been.

@POTUS @SenateGOP @SenateDems @HouseGOP @HouseDemocrats

The GOP's intransigence & obstruction for a decade or more have earned them being ignored. But our country needs every good idea so they should be heard. It's time for true bipartisanship!

@EvanMcMullin Yes

@SenateGOP
Your constituents want you to be statesmen not politicians, standing up for what's right & honoring your oath even when it's not politically expedient.

"A fascist is someone who supports or promotes a ... government led by a dictator who typically rules by forcefully and often violently suppressing opposition and criticism, controlling all industry and commerce, and promoting nationalism and often racism."

@TheOmen79 @nycjim @YahooNews We don't put people in front of a firing squad for political purposes. This is the United States of America ... not a banana republic.

@maddow Looks like 140 @HouseGOP are going to prove herd mentality exists.

Happy New Year @realDonaldTrump. A little premature but January 20th is just around the corner & we'll turn that corner ... soon.

@HawleyMO You are an embarrassment to your constituents & to our country. Your objections are lame & without legal or moral foundation. You will have your moment of fame & it will be a lead anchor around your political career.

@SenateGOP @SenateDems @HouseGOP @HouseDemocrats
The rich get richer & the poor get poorer. The greatest threat to the most wealthy is the growing wealth gap between the very rich & the very poor. Narrowing that gap strengthens our country.

OK. So let's take the $2,000 per person who are not in financial distress because of the virus & add it to the $2,000 per per person for those who are. That would really help. They'll receive much needed aid & spend it instead of banking it which will help our economy.

[Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey]

Congress should continue helping workers who've lost their jobs. But blindly borrowing more than $600 billion so we can send $2,000 checks to millions of people who haven't lost any income is terrible policy. I won't consent to a vote on that. https://t.co/hCOlgcFPnq

@senatemajldr For months -- literally months -- you have been sitting on your hands waiting to be told what to do by an absentee president. It's time for you to care about the people you represent.

[The Hill @thehill]

Sen. Mitch McConnell: "For months -- literally months -- Senate Republicans have been calling for another targeted package."

[Rational Skeptic @rationaldoubter]

@SenToomey It's time for you to leave. You are so completely out of touch with your constituents that it's become a danger to the welfare of our country.
