This fucking huge news is getting buried.

The Senate is bucking the parliamentarian and will push the $15 minimum wage back into the COVID Relief bill.

Democrats ARE going to bat for the American people.

This is complicated, so let me do my best to explain.
/1
After the Senate Parliamentarian ruled that the $15 minimum wage was ineligible to be included in the reconciliation bill, the general consensus was that only @VP Harris could step in to overrule the judgement and keep $15 in the bill.

/2
Based on what I'm hearing from people familiar with the discussion within the Senate since the ruling came down, the consensus changed.

There is very little precedent for this type of situation.

Mitch McConnell’s rationale for acquittal - that the Senate doesn’t have jurisdiction - is bullshit.

The Senate has jurisdiction. They settled that matter on day 1.

This piece from @ReginaldOhLaw shreds McConnell’s argument. #ClearAndPresentDanger

Impeachment isn’t about removal.

It’s about assessing and voting on an official’s fitness for office.

The Senate’s role is to determine *fitness* and issue a *verdict*.

In a trial, there are verdicts and there are sentences. Two different things.

/2
The constitution defines a mandatory sentence for conviction in an impeachment proceeding: removal.

The fact that the mandatory sentence can’t be delivered to the official doesn’t negate the need for the verdict and assessment of fitness.

Because there are other sentences.

BREAKING: Sen. Mike Lee has given lawyers on both sides of the #ImpeachmentTrial a copy of a log from his cellphone that shows a call from the White House at 2:26 p.m. on Jan. 6. #ClearAndPresentDanger
“That account — and the new phone record — strongly undercuts a claim from Trump’s lawyers on the Senate floor on Friday that “at no time” had Trump been informed that Pence was in danger during the hours-long riot.”
“The phone log proves that Trump’s call to Tuberville came only after he had attacked Pence as “lacking courage.” But it also provides evidence that Trump definitively knew of Pence’s predicament moments later. Trump did not follow up his tweet with any call for Pence’s safety.”

.@JoeBiden is nominating the most diverse cabinet in U.S. history.

MEDIA: It’s up to YOU to report on nominees fairly. Leave the sexist and racist attacks out and give these nominees the chance they deserve.

America needs to understand what's in Biden's $1.9T #AmericanRescuePlan. The GOP version won't go nearly far enough.

Biden's plan funds vaccinations to contain the virus, delivers immediate relief to those hardest hit, and supports struggling communities.

RT Thread /1
The #AmericanRescuePlan funds a nationwide vaccination campaign to speed up the pace of inoculations. Funds will support state and local governments and set up community vaccination centers around the U.S.
/2
The #AmericanRescuePlan mobilizes 100K public health workers — nearly tripling our country’s community health roles — to perform crucial tasks like vaccine outreach & contact tracing.
