Donald Trump must be convicted and removed from office. Because he will always choose his own personal interest over our national interest. Because in America, right matters. Truth matters. If not, no Constitution can protect us. If not, we are lost.pic.twitter.com/USfx6v9KsT
U.S. Senate | Impeachment Trial of Donald J. TrumpThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
Senators should have insisted on a fair trial with documents and witnesses. They chose not to. Some argue, let the election decide — But that argument is unpersuasive when the President is trying to cheat in 2020.pic.twitter.com/o6qFHW2qcJ

We proved our case. Republican Senators now admit Trump is guilty as charged. Still, they blocked witnesses from testifying, and deprived the American people of a full accounting of Trump’s misconduct. Senators will now render judgement – and be held accountable for it.pic.twitter.com/VpSbBDofYL

Jefferson once said: “I consider trial by jury as the only anchor yet imagined by man by which a government can be held to the principles of its Constitution.” Remove that anchor, and we are adrift. But if we hold fast, if we put our faith in the truth, This storm will pass.pic.twitter.com/mh0Ju6ZHZK

The decisions made today will reverberate throughout history. No matter the vote on witnesses, the facts will come out in the end. We will be asked: Why didn't we consider the evidence when we had the chance? What answer shall we give, if we decide not to pursue the truth?pic.twitter.com/aI7Ycf5Psw

After two and half centuries of our nation's history, it's come to this: The President's lawyers argue on the Senate floor that he can withhold aid, coerce an ally, and try to cheat in an election, And there's nothing we can do about it. Our Founders would be aghast.pic.twitter.com/3uHFnaY44q

When we have a President who so egregiously abuses and corrupts his office, unlike other countries, we have a remedy: Impeachment. This trial is now part of our Constitutional heritage. But if we refuse a fair trial, it diminishes the example we set for the rest of world.pic.twitter.com/0BgC9IaPZO

Over the past week, we've seen a descent into Constitutional madness. The President and his team argue that any conduct is okay, as long as a president thinks it will benefit him. That's an argument of pure desperation — one you only make when you know your client is guilty.pic.twitter.com/InfbVzjpd6

We’ve seen a remarkable lowering of the bar. According to Trump’s lawyers, everything is okay as long as the president believes it helps his reelection. It’s not okay to solicit foreign election interference, even if you fail. It just makes you a failed crook.pic.twitter.com/jHm82CHyw0

It's clear what the President's lawyers are saying: If you want a fair trial, we're going to make this endless. We're going to make this painful. But a fair trial isn't a threat. It's a cornerstone of American democracy. And you can't have a fair trial without basic fairness.pic.twitter.com/eK43g4Fggc

The idea that abuse of power isn’t impeachable would’ve terrified our Founders. You can’t write off a consensus of Constitutional scholars by calling them “Never Trumpers,” Unless we're prepared to accept that Article II really does allow the President to do whatever he wants.pic.twitter.com/hY5hBv9AJ4

As Trump said, they “have all the material.” And there’s a reason they won’t provide it. The White House is blocking all witnesses and documents, and Senators can infer why. But Senators don't have to infer. They can demand to see it. And they must.pic.twitter.com/anKQH9CMoR

The pattern of his words and conduct is clear: President Trump thinks he is above the law. He thinks he is the state. Trump said it himself: Under Article II I can do whatever I want. Precisely what our Founders feared. Precisely why they drafted the remedy of impeachment.pic.twitter.com/9rOgTzfpUo

Here are my takeaways: Trump’s lawyers cannot, and did not, defend him on the facts. Their defense has evolved to this: he did it, so what? His lawyers strengthened our case that the Senate must hear from Bolton. A fair trial requires key witnesses. Will America have one?

The President’s lawyers say this is about a “policy debate.” It is not. Unless that policy provides that a president can be as corrupt as he chooses and there is nothing Congress can do about it. That must never be the policy of the United States.

Trump's defense boils down to this: Sure, the President did it. We all know he did it. We just don't want the American people to see even more evidence that he did it. Besides, he is allowed to do whatever he wants. Get over it. Well, the American people know better.pic.twitter.com/r92J8ILk20

Trump has broken our nation’s promise to immigrants: Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free. Generations of immigrants have come to the U.S. with nothing, and helped make our country great. The American dream is always worth defending.https://twitter.com/GregStohr/status/1221861932929601536 …

A few takeaways: The President’s lawyers made the case for calling John Bolton, falsely claiming the President never told anyone the aid was conditioned on investigations. They don’t deny Trump sought foreign interference in 2020. They smear the Bidens. They have no defense.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jews and other victims of Nazism. We honor their memories by speaking out against anti-Semitism, injustice, and hatred in all forms. Never Again.

We already have strong and direct evidence that Trump withheld military aid to demand political investigations. Bolton further corroborates it. Senators have taken an oath to be impartial. Don’t they want to hear the full truth? Bolton must testify.pic.twitter.com/UXl9b2x2ZX

Facial recognition technology is racing ahead of privacy laws, creating the potential for abuse by the government, law enforcement, corporations, and bad actors. This is an area crying out for Congressional oversight and action.https://twitter.com/kashhill/status/1218510902556811264 …
