    Truly a Commander-in-Cheat. Every day he served.

    NEWS: Trump has granted full pardons to Charles Kushner, Paul Manafort and Roger Stone, among others.

    Verdict is in. 45,000 of you voted. 87% agree it’s traitorous for to try to overthrow ’s victory.

    Hate to ask...but if a Member of Congress tries to overthrow the 2020 election are they a traitor?

    300,000 dead Americans and GOP filed a complaint that a Democrat wore a marijuana mask. lays out how preposterous this is. If I lived in , I’d be asking what the hell is wrong with that guy?

    S.E. CUPP | How dumb does this congressman think we are? Jim Banks’ complaint about face-mask design Amid a staggering surge and death toll nearing 285K, the GOP congressman spent time and energy manufacturing outrage over mask ... style.

    Americans are hurting. Why won’t support $2,000 payments. RT if he should.

    Pelosi calls Trump's bluff in letter to colleagues: "If the President truly wants to join us in $2,000 payments, he should call upon Leader McCarthy to agree to our Unanimous Consent request."

    D: $2000 checks R: $600 checks? D: $1200 checks R: $600 checks? D: $600 checks. R: $2000 checks! Take it or leave it!

    Weird. It’s almost as if we had already wanted to do this but weren’t able to because blocked it.

    Let’s do it. and I already co-wrote the COVID amendment for $2,000 checks, so it’s ready to go. Glad to see the President is willing to support our legislation. We can pass $2k checks this week if the Senate GOP agrees to stand down.

    I’m for this! But I’ve always been. So have my colleagues. So let’s hear it, , are you for this?

    Republicans repeatedly refused to say what amount the President wanted for direct checks. At last, the President has agreed to $2,000 — Democrats are ready to bring this to the Floor this week by unanimous consent. Let’s do it!

    I think we agree here. Americans need more. And better. That’s what passed in the Heroes Act, but Senate never took up. On this deal, why did and Mnuchin oppose more money to Americans? And why didn’t the guy who wrote Art of the Deal, want to deal?

    Americans don't just deserve better from the government who destroyed their livelihoods, they NEED better, asap. the current stimulus bill isn't about Americans. it's a disgrace that would hurt future generations and wouldn't cover a month's rent for most people.

    What did do today? He corruptly pardoned a bunch of crooks and is threatening to hold up relief so many desperately need. Trump’s presidency — from beginning to can’t-come-fast-enough-end — was always about Trump. And never about you.

    more money in their pockets, & a more coordinated relief strategy, under a Biden/Harris administration. I’m proud to see 3 provisions I authored contained in this historic piece of legislation, including: a version of my legislation that facilitates a strong domestic supply (2/3)

    Congratulations, — you were raised to make sure hard work added up to doing better and dreaming bigger. Now, you’ll fight for that promise of America in the US Senate. California is proud to soon call you senator!

    His appointment will make history. But the I know is far more interested in changing history -- especially for the working men and women of our state and country. I can think of no one better to represent the state of California as our next United States Senator.

    At drive-thru with the babies and after I finish ordering through the speaker the cashier asks, “and anything else?” My son belts out, “and don’t forget the toy.” 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

    This is EXACTLY what I’d write cables about from the middle East. “Who’s who in the zoo” re the nutty influencers around Saddam, Bashar, Qaddafi...never thought 🇺🇸 would rival the lunacy of the banana republics/autocracies I followed...

    “Trump’s unofficial election advisory council now includes a pardoned felon, adherents of the QAnon conspiracy theory, a White House trade adviser and a Russian agent’s former lover.”

    Nope. You don’t get to enable Trump’s lunacy and corruption for four years and when it becomes too outside the mainstream you get to disown it. Sorry, , this is a stain you’ll never wash out.

    2:12
    “Cross the Rubicon?” Are you shitting me? Time to stop playing around with the Constitution. Biden won. Trump lost. Stop acting like spoiled brats. Or worse, the lunatic fringe. Enough. Basta.

    More treasoning.

    Several members of Congress just finished a meeting in the Oval Office with President , preparing to fight back against mounting evidence of voter fraud. Stay tuned.

    But this works. Most Republicans I serve with are the most gutless people you’ll find on this planet. They’re not guided by principles, they’re scared that Congress is the only job they can get. Which is embarrassing. I’d like to think I work with people who can get other jobs.

    Just an incredible slide that the WH has sent to Republican Senators in which they cite a Trump tweet in support of McConnell and a robocall he cut as key to his victory! Via
