@NJVasquez125 @TexasRepublic71 Finally someone with critical thinking. The angle seems like it came from above. The angle from where the Democrats were sitting is all wrong to have came from there.

@sylviamitc31197 @TexasRepublic71 The angle is all wrong from where the Democrats were sitting. Had to have come from above, the balcony.

19 out of 20 murderers have no mental illness diagnosis.

4 out of 5 mass shooters have no mental illness diagnosis, and half showed no signs on a prior, undiagnosed illness.

Framing this as just a mental illness problem is a gun industry trope. Period. Stop.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

When President @realDonaldTrump spends more time and energy denouncing Rep. Elijah Cummings and Baltimore than he does denouncing right-wing extremists who often traffic in hate and white nationalism, it shows his priorities are un-American and way off balance.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

People suffer from mental illness in every other country on earth; people play video games in virtually every other country on earth.

The difference is the guns.

[Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke]

The President has tried to convince Americans that Mexican immigrants are a threat to our security—but this weekend, it was our country's gun laws that killed eight Mexican citizens. My heart is with them.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Assault weapons are weapons of war. They are designed to kill a lot of people quickly. There is no reason they should exist on the streets of a civil society.

As president, I'll take executive action to ban imports of AR-15-style assault weapons.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Hey @senatemajldr - these young men look like they work for you.

Just wanted to clarify: are you paying for young men to practice groping & choking members of Congress w/ your payroll, or is this just the standard culture of #TeamMitch?

Thanks.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

The ugly truth is this:

White supremacist terrorism is a real and present danger.

When the President and other leaders use racist or dehumanizing language to describe immigrants and Muslims as invaders, angry and isolated men with guns are listening.

And acting.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

I have a super good idea for the President and every Republican who have become interested today in making our mental system better.

wait for it...wait for it...

STOP YOUR LAWSUIT TO OVERTURN THE ACA, ENDING MENTAL HEALTH COVERAGE FOR 20M PEOPLE!

That would be a nice start.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

It's not the fault of the press, immigration, or video games.

The rise of white supremacist terror has other causes.

If Trump wants to end this bloodshed, he must begin by looking inward.

Words have power, and this President’s words are inciting horror.

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

We need to institute universal background checks.

We need to ban military-style assault weapons.

We need to ban high-capacity magazines.

This is a national emergency. We need to act.

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

This is outrageous: the Senate began a five-week recess yesterday without Republicans allowing a single vote on legislation to secure and strengthen our election infrastructure. Major elections begin this fall—we must take action immediately.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

To my colleagues - get off your ass and do something.

Stop pretending like your only responsibility is to offer sympathy.

You got elected to fix things. And this is fixable. But not if all you do about this is tweet.

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

The administration is looking to use military retirement funds to help pay for the president’s vanity project of a border wall. The wall doesn’t make anybody safer—it’s irresponsible and it’s wrong.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

It began with Trump’s vilification of Muslims and immigrants.

Then he defended “fine people” at a Nazi rally.

Then he encouraged chants of “send them back.”

He demonized communities of color.

Now, he celebrates a crime against a Member of Congress.

Where does it end?

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

If you’re just as sick of gun violence as an American reality, it’s time to get organizing.

Everyone wants top pitching prospect Deivi García in talks with the Yankees. Reality: Only available in the 1 out of 1,000 chance the Mets consent to trade Syndergaard to them. Not available for lesser than Noah.
