Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) is not too trusting of the Obama administration and of some of his congressional colleagues, but especially skeptical about the government Tuesday.
Rep. John Culberson (R-Texas) will be heading over to the conservative Heritage Foundation this afternoon, where he will be talking about Twitter and a number of other issues.
The prolific tweeter is already on his way, noting the nice weather Tuesday in Washington, D.C.:
On my way to Heritage Found Bloggers Conf - you can listen in and particip 12/1 pm edt - spectacular weather - cherry blossoms in fullbloom

Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich.) is taking no prisoners on Twitter today, taking aim at Fox News's Greg Gutfield (host of the late-night show "Red Eye"), U2 frontman Bono, and even his own boss, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio).
If Fox News, it could be that ignoble savage Greg Gutfold from "Red Eye." That would necessitate a restraining order.
McCotter then started his Twitterview with Fox's Brian Wilson, who informed him:
It's Fox News' Brian Wilson! He's reporting that Greg Gutfold took on a restraining order on me! C'est la vie!
And then, moving ahead, McCotter tweeted that he was headed to Boehner's office, to meet with Bono. But McCotter also had to take a shot at his GOP leader:
I'm going to meet Bono in the Leader's office. I wonder if Boehner knows Bono? Of course Boehner thinks U2 is still just a spy plane.
Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) is using the congressional bully pulpit to rally support for his wife's dance career. The Ohio Democrat and former Presidential candidate urged his followers on Twitter to vote for his wife on "Cleveland's Dancing With The Stars."
"Please vote for Elizabeth and ask your friends to do the same. Vote early and vote often!!" Kucinich wrote.
Elizabeth Kucinich joined the show because she's "always wanted to dance" but "never had the confidence to do it before," she told Newsnet 5 in Cleveland.
ABC White House correspondent Jake Tapper seems to maybe be enjoying President Obama's first trip to Europe as president than the commander-in-chief himself.
Tapper, like many media personalities covering the trip, flew in advance of the president (who departed Andrews Air Force base moments ago) to head to London for the G-20 summit.

Tapper then proceeded to make a bit of a joke about one of the last G-20 summits with former President Bush, in which he gave German Chancellor Angela Merkel an awkward shoulder rub. He tweeted:
little known fact about such summits: it is permitted to give surprise shoulder massages called "merkels"
Tapper then checked in with an update as he did a little light reading over a glass of red wine, tweeting:
am i rocking this briefing book over a merlot? ARE THE CENTRAL BANKS MAINTAINING EXPANSIONARY POLICIES??!
President Obama is set to meet with congressional Democrats Monday evening behind closed doors, and at least one lawmaker is registering her excitement.
Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) called Obama's visit to the Capitol "impressive," checking in early Monday evening from her iPhone.
Waiting for the President to come and address our caucus. I think it is impressive that he comes to the Capitol to see us, plenty to discuss
On the agenda will be a number of high-profile issues having to be handled by the president and Congress this week, including resolution of the budget for this year, and handling of the troubled state of General Motors (GM) and Chrysler.
In an apparent attempt to become the hippest Congressmen ever, Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich.) posted a link on his TWITTER account today to a video of his ROCK BAND. The group--called "Dr. Zauis and the Bright Eyes"--played in a tribute concert to the auto industry:
No word on the suspicious similarity between McCotter's band name and the indie-rock band "Bright Eyes."
