Anybody who won't condemn Trump's statement on terminating the Constitution while Trump is just a private senior citizen in Florida yelling at clouds will not have what it takes to condemn it from someone in power. abcnews.go.com/Politics/lead…

I just want to make a few things clear: The Holocaust happened. Hitler was a demonic figure. And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides. Silence is complicity.

Today a Jackson Co. jury ruled in favor of my department to convict three militia members of lending material support for acts of domestic terrorism. My opponent has repeatedly called this case a "sham." His undying support of right-wing extremism is too dangerous for Michigan.

Buttigieg is epic at calling out Republicans. Nails DeSantis and other GOP here: "...It's another to just call attention to a problem because the problem is actually more useful to you than the solution. And that helps you call attention to yourself."

We have left no doubt, none, that Donald Trump led an effort to upend American democracy that directly resulted in the violence of January 6th. Trump is not above the law!

Senator Cruz voted against this.
The Ports to Plains highway will run from Laredo all the way up to North Dakota and into Canada. This project will bring jobs to Texas and millions of dollars to the state. A great bipartisan victory!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Ports to plains Highway act was added as a part to an omnibus bill. Ted Cruz voted against the omnibus bill. msn.com/en-us/news/pol…

Yes, indicting a former president would be unprecedented. Do you know what was also unprecedented? The first attempted coup in the 233-year history of American democracy. Prosecute Donald Trump.

DOJ decisions on whether to indict or not should never driven by politics. But understand: To NOT indict, because you’re worried about the political ramifications, is to be driven by politics.
NEW: May 25, 2022 Merrick Garland memo to DOJ on "election year sensitivities" doubles down on Barr's policy against investigating candidates without approval.

This cruel ruling is outrageous and heart-wrenching. But make no mistake: the rights of women and all Americans are on the ballot this November. Read my full statement on the Supreme Court Overturning Roe v. Wade here: speaker.gov/newsroom/62422-1

Why we can't stop saying gay, a story On the first day of my senior year of high school, a new boy showed up in my AP English class. He had transferred from a prestigious private school to my public school, and I was confused. I asked him why he moved and he shrugged 1/x

Waxing poetic about the courage of Ukrainians abroad but showing not an ounce of political courage at home.

Anyone who doubts the importance of state legislative races should take a quick look at Florida right now. Just this month, the Republicans have supported abortion bans, victimized gay children, opposed history and solar power. We need to take back state legislatures.

The cruelty and opportunistic cynicism of Abbot's order is shocking even in a time when it is difficult to be shocked. He is amplifying the suffering of some of our most vulnerable children as an act of political signaling. Shame on you and all who enable you, Governor.
Greg Abbot has officially directed Family and Protective Services to begin investigating all trans children in Texas and prosecuting their parents as child abusers. He has also instructed all teachers, doctors, and caregivers to begin reporting any trans students they see.

Seriously, how is this kind of disinformation legal? Where are our laws? We really have no broadcasting standards?
Alex Berenson tells Fox viewers: "The mRNA COVID vaccines need to be withdrawn from the market. No one should get them. No one should get boosted. No one should get double boosted. They are a dangerous and ineffective product at this point."

A year later, the most vivid memory I have of Jan 6 is the moment I returned to the House chamber after the riot had been quelled. I stepped over broken glass to get into the chamber. What ensued over the next hour was the most powerful experience of my career. THREAD
