    We now have proof that AG Bill Barr spun the Mueller report to protect Donald Trump. It’s time for the Justice Department to finish the investigation and have career officials decide whether to prosecute Trump for obstruction. I explain in

    NEW: Peter Navarro appears to have failed to turn over a number of White House records as required by law, including in his personal email. NARA must take action to recover any presidential records Navarro still possesses.

  4. The Republican Party's agreement to pay $1.6 million in Donald Trump's legal bills for a New York investigation unrelated to the presidency shows how Trump continues to use his political influence for his own personal financial gain.

  5. Once again, Donald Trump and his allies are hoping to escape Congressional oversight by using judicial delay. This is exactly why Congress must change the law to allow faster enforcement mechanisms for subpoenas, as the Protecting Our Democracy Act does.

  6. Sen. Warnock is right—the Senate should not go on holiday recess until they’ve passed legislation to protect our democracy, the Freedom to Vote Act and John Lewis VRAA. This week alone has shown why these reforms are so important and why they cannot wait.

  7. NEW: Documents obtained by show that CBP didn’t find any credible threats around George Floyd’s burial. They still deployed dozens of officers authorized to use deadly force.

  8. Time is of the essence to pass legislation to protect voting, restrict partisan gerrymandering, and curb big money in politics. If the Senate can get the Freedom to Vote Act and John Lewis VRAA done this year, that will prevent irrevocable damage to Americans' freedom to vote.

  9. Donald Trump’s refusal to divest from his businesses ushered in an unprecedented era of corruption. The General Services Administration should have been there to curb his corruption and inform the public. Their failure to act is shameful.

  10. It should go without saying, but no one involved in Donald Trump’s attempts to overturn the election should be consulted by officials for election guidance. We need accountability for those who attacked the democracy and protections from new attacks, now.

  11. Donald Trump's continued ownership of his DC hotel while president became a hub for corruption. A congressional report has now confirmed that the General Services Administration failed utterly to act to reign in his ethical and constitutional violations.

    Biden says he would support moving on to voting rights and put off Build Back Better until 2022 if the Congress can get it done, reports

  13. Not sure facts matter here, but an AP review of every potential case of voter fraud in battleground states shows that, even if they were all counted and all benefited Biden, which they didn't, they still wouldn't be nearly enough to influence the outcome.

  14. Of course a South Dakota official in charge of licenses for real estate appraisers was intimidated when she was called in to meet with Gov. Kristi Noem and Noem's daughter who had just been denied that license. An outrageous abuse of power.

    Undo
  15. Current laws requiring transparency from members of Congress and top staff are violated constantly with almost no enforcement, sending the message that they are above the law. It's time to change the law and simply prohibit them from trading stock.

    Undo
  16. I testified almost 3 years ago that the law was clear that Congress is entitled to Donald Trump’s tax returns. Now a Trump-appointed federal judge agreed. It’s well past time for those tax returns to be turned over.

  17. If Andrew Cuomo wanted to address the multiple ethics issues surrounding his book project, he could return his $5 million plus in profits from the book or donate them to charity, rather than tying up New York's ethics panel with litigation.

    Undo
  18. DC Attorney General Karl Racine’s lawsuit against the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers for damages from the January 6 attack on the Capitol is another important step toward accountability for the insurrection.

    Undo
  19. The efforts to undermine our democracy so that fewer Americans can vote and so that allies of Donald Trump can overturn future election results are ongoing and have already had much success. It's time to focus on thwarting these attacks at every level.

    Undo
  20. Once again, it appears that in those very few instances of actual, documented fraud in the 2020 election, it was for the most part actually perpetrated by supporters of Donald Trump to help Donald Trump.

    Undo
  21. Many of those who have spent months spreading lies and doubt about the events of January 6 were, on the day, texting then-Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, begging him to convince Donald Trump to act to stop the violence. It's time for the lies to stop.
