Funny how @RepLuna called the police to arrest me (they didn’t once they saw the video) because she said I touched her arm. 10 minutes later @RepMariaSalazar grabbed my face. I’m not complaining because she didn’t do it maliciously, I’m just pointing out the lunacy of @RepLuna

Dear Scott Pelley: pull the entire 60 Minutes team together and go to MSNow and offer a package deal to recreate the show for Sunday night and call it The Hour

It’s inconceivable to me that someone who broke into the Capitol and was part of January 6 would be given a job at the Pentagon with access to sensitive information.

There still have to be standards, judgment and consequences when it comes to protecting our national security. https://t.co/NlqSBMAikX

@TexasPharmD @statesman @MarkDavis ah yes, 60 Minutes, famously known for its lack of questions

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

oh my goodness -- Ted Lieu played Rubio a video of Trump sleeping while Rubio tried to talk to him during a cabinet meeting. Then this exchange happened:

RUBIO: I've never seen him fall asleep

LIEU: I'm gonna show you a video that shows you just lied to Congress

*plays another video of Trump sleeping by Rubio*

When 60 Minutes is in trouble, we are all in trouble. When Pelley says CBS is meddling in his reporting for political reasons, believe it. https://t.co/lWpjdv1Unm

After receiving a request from Peter Navarro, the Pentagon rushed to approve a deal to lend $620 million to a company linked to Donald Trump Jr.

Now, lawmakers are demanding answers from the White House.

A former Brazilian model has claimed the first lady was an “escort” for Epstein and met the president through the notorious sex offender.

From someone who accepted millions in improper gifts, dodged his reporting requirements, won’t allow proper fact-finding, and may have failed to pay taxes, his “law-abiding” schtick is a bit ripe.

Scott Pelly to Nick Bilton:

“[Weiss] has no qualifications for her job; you have slender qualifications for this job. The changes that she’s made at the Evening News have been catastrophic, so why should we expect any of this is going to be any better?”

We aren’t talking about this enough.

Trump’s lawsuit against his own IRS, the one that he settled to create the $1.776 billion dollar January 6 slush fund, was over the leak of his tax returns. But they were leaked when he was in charge of the IRS.

So Trump settled his lawsuit against his own IRS with his own DOJ over the leak of his own tax returns, which were leaked while he was President the first time and running the IRS.

Make it make sense!

[Marc E. Elias @marceelias]

A reminder that DOJ has sued 30 states for access to their sensitive voter files. DOJ is currently 0-8 in decided cases.

This is what I mean when I say the future of democracy is on the docket. https://t.co/8iFP5fL7em
