REDEEMED! After losing a point last time, I turned on the lamp, and earned back a 10/10 rating!
As a member of the 5-timer club, do I get a jacket or something?
Dear

,
At 16, I got to meet my 1st term Sen.
Me: “I’m honored 2 meet u even though I disagree w/you.”
You: “Well, I’m honored 2 represent u even though u disagree w/me."
Even when I worked against u, you were a role model. Just want u to know that. Thank you.
I’m the Director of
@GUPolitics
& this graphic is incorrect.
The Battleground Poll shows 58% approval on the economy.
But it shows only 43% overall approval, & 52% disapproval.
The 55% number is the President’s unfavorable rating. (Only 40% favorable.)
Chris Wallace on
@foxnews
just now, on the GOP defense that ambassadors serve at the pleasure of the President:
“If that’s the best they can do, I guess they’re in some trouble."
On the same day the CIA Director said he saw no evidence of Russia decreasing its subversive activities in the US:
* The State Dept announced it would NOT impose new sanctions on Russia.
* The House Intel Committee launched an investigation into the FBI.
Let that sink in.
New rule: every time a "news" organization produces fake news name the controlling oligarchs (or CEOs)
NBC = Brian L. Roberts
CBS = Redstones
CNN = J Zucker+J Bewkes (CEOs)
New Yorker/Reddit/Wired = Newhouses
Daily Beast = Diller
FOX/WSJ = Murdochs
NYT = Sulzbergers
WaPo = Bezos
The Sandy Hook shooter was not an immigrant.
The Texas church shooter was not an immigrant.
The SC church shooter was not an immigrant.
The Las Vegas shooter was not an immigrant.
(I could sadly keep going.)
@POTUS
didn’t outline a plan to prevent those from happening again.
A beautiful tribute.

At a time when hate infests our politics, these young people remind us who we really are.
A number of Trump supporting Members of Congress and media personalities have argued for more than a year that none of the protestors were armed.
But today we learned the President was TOLD there were weapons in the crowd, he didn’t care, and he sent them to the Capitol anyway.
Sad to see some progressives in my feed getting angry w/ the Dems calling on Franken to resign.
Sorry, but saying u'll only hold sexual harassment accountable if the other side does, means ur not taking it seriously at all.
These women aren't pawns in a tribal political battle.
Hats off to the entire
@JoeBiden
team. For months, they endured near universal scoffing by the establishment who had written his campaign off.
They kept their heads down and executed their strategy. And tonight he is likely to to take an insurmountable lead in delegates.
In the past few days, the President has accused a member of Congress of treason for conducting oversight, and has suggested that a federal whistleblower’s sources are spies who should be subject to execution.
All this, after publicly admitting he did what they said he did.
Tonight, an advisor to the President warned against those trying to “cancel Christianity.”
10 hours earlier, she questioned the faith of millions of Christians who disagree with her politically.
No irony detected.
I spent most of my 20 years in politics as a press secretary & comms dir.
There wasn’t a single day of those 20 yrs that I believed it was my job to lie to the media.
99.9% of the press secretaries I know — from BOTH parties — would feel same way.
Credibility is our currency.
After OK City, Clinton delivered remarks to heal a scared nation.
After 9/11, Bush delivered remarks to heal a scared nation.
After SC church shooting, Obama delivered remarks to heal a scared nation.
Today,
@POTUS
took to Twitter to mock and attack fellow Americans.
If any Democrat called any rural area, a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess,” Republicans would be outraged, and call them elitists who look down on America.
This is no different. It is elitist and looks down on America.
....As proven last week during a Congressional tour, the Border is clean, efficient & well run, just very crowded. Cumming District is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. If he spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up this very dangerous & filthy place
Civility and respect in action.
College Democrats & College Republicans came together on campus this morning for a bipartisan Election Day breakfast before heading out to do their own respective GOTV activities.
One of the many things I love about
@Georgetown
and
@GUPolitics
!
As hard as today is, it can also be a time for hope.
Every year on this day, students from
@GeorgetownCR
@GUCollegeDems
&
@BipartisanHoyas
come together to plant about 3000 flags on campus in memory.
Many of these students were infants or not yet born on 9/11/01.

Recap:
The President of the United States this morning shared tweets by a well-known British extremist hate group.
British government responded that he was wrong to share them.
David Duke praised him for sharing, saying “That’s why we love Trump.”
Now you’re all caught up.
Crooked Hillary Clinton is the worst (and biggest) loser of all time. She just can’t stop, which is so good for the Republican Party. Hillary, get on with your life and give it another try in three years!
Tucker Carlson's nonsensical claim that white supremacy is "actually not a real problem in America" came after several days of scrutiny of the El Paso suspect's racist views and the forces that may have radicalized the suspect...
During our
#HoyasInIA
trip, a Biden strategist made the case to us that 1st 4 states shouldn’t be seen as isolated contests, but together as Phase 1 of the race.
I was skeptical. But they were right.
Biden is now nearly even w/ Sanders in delegates & he leads nat’l pop vote.
Fox Business Network has now issued an on-air correction for the incorrect poll graphic the president screenshotted in a tweet this morning.
Here's the vid (about 1m in)
And here's the transcript:
She was thrown off The View like a dog, Zero T.V. Personas. Now Wallace is a 3rd rate lapdog for Fake News MSDNC (Concast). Doesn’t have what it takes!
The whole reason they invited me was to provide a Democratic perspective, so that the audience hears all sides. Sorry if that offends. I think dialogue is important.
For Fox News Sunday to legitimize Mo Elleithee as a news consultant when he is an avowed Hillary Clinton, DNC Strategist is like hiring a fox to guard the chicken house. Do they think we are all Fools? Can you say TOTALLY BIASED!!!!!!
GUCD joined
@GeorgetownCR
today to work side by side and plant American flags on Georgetown’s campus in remembrance of those who lost their lives on 9/11.
Bernie deserves a ton of credit for his huge win in NV last week.
But Biden’s win tonight in SC is even bigger. In a primary state with much higher turnout. With zero momentum coming in & conventional wisdom writing his political obit.
So yeah. He deserves a ton of credit too.
A classy concession by

And congratulations to

Congrats to
@kyrstensinema
. I wish her success. I’m grateful to all those who supported me in this journey. I’m inspired by Arizonans’ spirit and our state’s best days are ahead of us.
Imagine what it must be like to stand in the back of the chamber, watching footage of yourself risking your life to protect Senators from harm... when several of those very Senators have been doodling and reading notes instead of listening to testimony.
Capitol Police Officer Eugene Goodman stands in the back of the Senate chamber as impeachment managers play never-before-seen footage of the Capitol insurrection.

What a lovely tribute from the former Republican Speaker of the House to the outgoing Democratic Speaker of the House.
And how very sad that this is remarkable by today's political standards.

@SpeakerBoehner
tribute to
@SpeakerPelosi
: "No other speaker of the House in the modern era, Republican or Democrat, has wielded the gavel with such authority or with such consistent results. You are one tough cookie."
It can’t be said enough right now.
To every journalist out there trying to tell the story of our nation in crisis... You are appreciated. You are needed.
Thank you.
