We’ve been told @DavidAxelrod is the official, confirmed account of former Obama adviser David Axelrod. But are we sure it’s not a joke account? Exhibit 6,942 (approximately):
Now that Sen filibuster has been curbed, problem is de facto "filibuster" in House–the Hastert rule, by which Tea Party Rs block votes.1/2

Without unwritten Hastert rule, bipart coalition in House could pass immigration reform, budget compromises. Progress would come. 2/3

Sadly, only GOP House leadership can waive Hastert, & internal caucus politics makes that highly unlikely. So maj rule often thwarted. 3/3

No need for a parody account.
