This is outstanding.
If you listened to Republicans this morning, you'd think they slept through the Trump years. Secretary Blinken was before @HouseForeign today. I took the chance to correct the record. Turns out the Trump Administration left quite a mess for him to clean up. Take a look ⬇️
LEFT: A child crying on a school bus in Nashville today after a school shooting RIGHT: A “Christmas card” posted by the congressman who represents that child’s district
REMINDER: @GovBillLee & the @TNGOP just appointed Jordan Mollenhour to the board of education— whose company was sued for selling ammo to an underage mass killer (SANTA FE) and sold ammo to at least one more (AURORA) He has ZERO education experience. tnholler.com/2021/11/gov-le…
In Tennessee as of April 1, you can bring a loaded firearm to brunch without a permit but a guy could not dress up like Dolly Parton and sing Jolene without risking a misdemeanor.
Tennessee governor Bill Lee issued a statement recently about how the drag ban in Tennessee “protects children” If only he would have instead focused on laws that might have prevented the mass murder of children in his state today tennessean.com/story/news/pol…
“When this election is over I will be the president of the United States,” says the guy who instructed the nation to inject themselves with bleach.
"Donald Trump came to Waco for a singular reason: to preach a gospel of political violence." As Trump's words grow more dangerous, fierce opposition becomes increasingly imperative: youtu.be/_5mvTPFcZRQ
There is no federal law prohibiting CURRENT presidents from criminal prosecution. Yet House Republicans want to pass a law prohibiting FORMER presidents — regular citizens — from criminal prosecution. I assume they will call it what it is: the Protect Donald Trump Act.
Sending good vibes to Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis, Jack Smith, and their teams. Leading investigations and making charging decisions is challenging work in the best of times. Trump has made these times the worst. The easy choice is to back down. Stay strong. nytimes.com/2023/03/20/nyr…
HOLY SHIT, my man Rep. Hakeem Jeffries actually schooled these fools alphabetically!👏👏👏
We will seek common ground to make progress for everyday Americans. But never bend the knee to an Extreme MAGA Republican agenda.
We must never forget the sacrifices made by the heroic police officers who bravely defended our democracy against a violent insurrection. #January6th
All who serve in the House share a responsibility to bring dignity to this body. Sadly, Republicans' cavalier attitude in electing a Speaker is frivolous, disrespectful and unworthy of this institution. We must open the House and proceed with the People's work.
House Republicans have already proven that they have no interest in governing and delivering For The People. Democrats remain unified and ready to get to work to keep delivering and to guard our progress for America's working families. -NP
Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time... Macbeth 5, 5
We are prepared to stay on the House floor as long as it takes to determine a Speaker so that we can begin to work for the American people, can ensure the security of our country, and can deliver results. Republicans’ goal today is another adjournment to avoid doing that work.
So 20 extremists hold up McCarthy, who's already committed to many irresponsible things, and blackmail him to be even more irresponsible. But there aren't five sane Republican members who are willing to say, we're not sticking with a speaker candidate who signs on to those terms?
Who else would LOVE to see 6 Rs cross the aisle to vote to make Rep. Hakeem Jeffries the House Speaker?🖐️
Three people are receiving votes for the nation's third highest Constitutional office. Only one of them -- @RepJeffries -- did not vote to subvert the electoral process and thus the democratic transfer of power on Jan. 6th, 2021.
A former aide to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) was convicted Thursday after being found guilty of helping funnel illegal foreign campaign contributions from a Russian national into former President Trump's 2016 campaign axios.com/2022/11/18/tru…
