Hours after the Senate voted against seeking new evidence in the impeachment case against President Trump, the administration acknowledged in a midnight court filing Friday the existence of two dozen emails that reveal the president’s thinking about withholding military aid to Ukraine. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/justice-dept-acknowledges-24-emails-reveal-trumps-thinking-on-ukraine/2020/02/01/7deea84c-450e-11ea-b503-2b077c436617_story.html
New @FEC filing: Donald Trump’s 2020 re-election campaign paid $194,247.57 to Trump family members, properties & businesses in the final quarter of last year alone—steering over $1.8 MILLION in donations from presidential campaign donors to @realDonaldTrump's private interests. https://t.co/ell9EtWkDH
1. @JeffBezos says climate change is a "dire" problem and he wants @amazon to be a "role model" But Amazon has donated $8500 to the 2020 reelection campaign of Senator Jim Inhofe, the most powerful and outspoken climate denier in Congress https://t.co/ewxj23olEj 2. Amazon is not alone in publicly acknowledging the urgency of climate change while quietly contributing thousands to help Inhofe stay in power. @Google says climate change requires "urgent action." Google sent Inhofe an 8K check on December 31 https://t.co/ewxj23olEj 3. @Microsoft says the world is confronting "an urgent carbon problem" that requires "innovative public policy." Last year, Microsoft donated $2500 to Inhofe, who wrote a book claiming climate change is a hoax https://t.co/ewxj23olEj Inhofe is that stupid 'snowball' senator.
"In 2018, the Trump administration fired the government’s entire pandemic response chain of command." https://t.co/J8r5f02v7c remember 'small government' is their goal?
Republicans Say Trump Was Right, Kansas City Chiefs Indeed Based in Kansas http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/02/trump-kansas-city-chiefs-wrong-state-missouri-super-bowl.html For many of Trump’s policy actions, the cruelty is the point. But for some of his more trivial episodes, the stupidity is the point. The gleeful rejection of objective truth, throwing oneself fully into Trumpism, is a marker of tribal loyalty.
The Trump-GOP Tax Scam will add $1.9 trillion to the deficit by 2030. Despite his claims, Trump's tax cuts for the rich didn't pay for themselves - they're paid for by you and your kids. https://t.co/ur3hnZhFZr
Congress also passed and Trump signed into law another round of health care corporate tax cuts (for medical device firms and health insurers) worth billions of dollars a little over a month ago. Virtually zero media attention, no mention, this is how DC actually works. #SOTU see? congress
