Amy Klobuchar refused to let this go, returning to it after questioning and calling on Eric Schmitt to apologize for his remarks about Jack Smith. “For a US senator to have false information and imply, based on a confusion about the name of a team — which I knew, knowing my Midwestern sports — and imply that you were in another city, that you were somehow involved that day in what was happening in Georgia, and then call you a dirtbag, is something that deserves an apology.”

Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit w/ pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people w/ that offer. If you accept that offer & resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”

Bizarre moment at the Michigan Senate debate after Haley Stevens says “the filibuster must go.” She adds that Democrats “should use the filibuster to not allow the big ugly bill to pass that increased our debt.” Pressed on whether she opposes or supports using the filibuster, Stevens says: “We should remove the filibuster so Democrats could have voted down the legislation, the tax bill.” That is not how the filibuster works. Removing it allows all Senate bills to pass at 51 votes. It would not have allowed Democrats to stop Trump’s tax bill, which was already exempt from the filibuster.

James Talarico calls out “the groups” in the Democratic Party on immigration. “In recent years there’ve been a series of advocacy groups that claim to represent the interests of different communities like here in Texas, but actually have no real connection to the actual people on the ground. And those groups convinced the [Biden] administration that it was racist to support border security.”

TILLIS torches Trump’s big bill in a fiery Senate floor speech: “So what do I tell 663,000 people in 2-3 years when President Trump breaks his promise by pushing them off Medicaid?” He says “amateurs” advising Trump are conflating health care policy with “waste, fraud and abuse.”
