I always sensed that being handcuffed to the deranged sectarians of the DUP might be more torture for the Tories than for the rest of us… https://t.co/PGOMQ041IR

Speaking to Bloomberg, Sammy Wilson flatly rejects notion of special Brexit regime for N.Ireland, saying DUP&80 Tories MPs would vote it down.

The Tory Government might think that NI is represented by the DUP – tonight Belfast City Council says different. Our largest elected chamber has pledged its support for a People’s Vote,momentum is building and support is gaining!@theresa_may listen to the people not just Arlene!

Brexit is now two games of chicken. The first is between the UK and EU, and UK will lose.

The second is between May and the DUP/Tory unionists. Specifically, are they prepared to fell her over a sea border?

Either way, she’s capitulating somewhere, and soon. Me on Radio Foyle: pic.twitter.com/T3csPezOad

The tragedy for Ulster Unionism right now is that it is clinging to a disastrous GB-led hard Brexit. When it should be arguing for a ‘best of both worlds’ status for NI: exempt from both EU/GB tariffs and ‘dedramatised’ (https://t.co/9nBvFoAy5r) checks on NI goods. https://t.co/0b4ucJq0wo

Oh my poor heart. After two years of lying to us all, weaseling around with words, playing with lives and livelihoods, you finally tell something like the truth, by accident or for your own gain. A curse upon you and your kind. May your lies consume your souls https://t.co/JN6dA8Pe4g

By my count, @Jeremy_Hunt’s EU/USSR comparison has prompted public criticism from 3 EU ambassadors to UK (Sweden, Latvia, Estonia), two former FCO perm secs (Ricketts/Fraser), the Commission & Brexiteer @SteveBakerH, & public praise from @Nigel_Farage

Sen. Jeff Flake says he is working with the White House counsel's office to ensure that the FBI is able to do a "real investigation" into allegations of sexual misconduct against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. https://t.co/70bYobX3ys

NEW: Texts between friends of Kavanaugh, "suggest that the nominee was personally talking with former classmates about Ramirez’s story in advance of the New Yorker article that made her allegation public." https://t.co/1idR9bkHep

NBC News notes that Kavanaugh told the Judiciary Committee under oath that the 1st time he heard about Deborah Ramirez's allegation was in the New Yorker article. These text messages would seem to refute that timeline, if accurate. https://t.co/mA7QxIbnt2

In a 2015 speech, Brett Kavanaugh said that a judge must keep “emotions in check” and not be a “political partisan.”

At the hearing last week, Kavanaugh did not demonstrate the ability to put aside partisanship. https://t.co/VgYnSlwdsL pic.twitter.com/Ug7yVYA2KH
