Instead of standing up for our national values & security, our President defended Putin on all fronts. Now it seems Trump is desperately trying to backtrack—but we all heard what he said & know where he stands. It’s appalling, inexcusable, & unworthy of the Presidency.
The world watched yesterday as President Trump showered praise upon the Russian President who directed the interference of our elections. It was deeply horrifying & alarming that our President failed to use that moment to push Putin to end his attacks on our country & elections.
Members on both sides of the aisle have expressed outrage at President Trump’s disgraceful remarks, and I’m glad to see them speaking up, because words matter. But you know what also matters? Action. Now, we must all ask: what will Congressional Republicans do about this?
Many Republicans in Congress are acting as if they aren’t the party in control of the Senate and the House & they don’t have the ability to actually make a difference & demand change. This is absurd—and the time for handwringing & hoping the problem just goes away is over.
It’s time to: -strengthen Russian sanctions -demand answers from WH about the Trump-Putin closed-door meeting & provide any notes that exist -protect DOJ, the FBI & the special counsel -extradite the 12 Russians indicted for election attacks -pass election security legislation
With the power to call up legislation & hold hearings, Republican leaders have options, and they certainly have a whole lot of Democrats who stand ready & willing to help. So my message to every member of the Senate, and to every member of the House, is clear:
This is not a partisan issue—this about defending the integrity & foundational values of our nation. This is about Congress doing its job & holding the President accountable for his shocking & repeated failures. And this is about putting the country before party.
