So shocked that McConnell voted for this motion! 🙄 Really, I am not shocked because he is so darn predictable, and I pay attention to people's actions.
55-45 vote against Rand Paul's motion that the impeachment is unconstitutional because Trump is no longer in office. Senate Minority Leader McConnell voted with Paul.
A historic, hopeful day. Congratulations to President @JoeBiden and Vice President @KamalaHarris.
As President Biden said in his speech, today begins a new story of decency, empathy, and ethical leadership in service of all Americans.
Time to build back better.
#InaugurationDay
Today, @KamalaHarris has made history. As she said, “I may be the first woman to hold this office, but I won’t be the last.”
Congratulations, Madam Vice President.
Officer Eugene Goodman, who deterred a mob away from the Senate chamber during deadly Capitol riot, will now be the acting deputy sergeant at arms of the Capitol Police and is escorting VP-elect Harris at today's inauguration.
"To heal, we must remember. It's hard sometimes to remember. But that's how we heal. It's important to do that as a nation. That's why we're here." President-elect Biden
Looking back will help us as a nation move forward with courage & strength. We need that now more than ever.
"To heal, we must remember"

Far too many equate King’s legacy *only* with his speech in 1963, but do they truly hear him?
When you think of the 1963 March on Washington for economic and civil justice compared to the Jan. 6th attack on the Capitol for a singular narcissistic man — it’s a stark difference.
After endorsing him, the @PhillyInquirer proclaims shock. C'mon. Do better. Spend more than 10 minutes on Zoom before issuing an endorsement next time. Fitzpatrick's has been making you look like fools for awhile now. Cc: @abgutman
Let's talk about unity.
It’s not an empty talking point. It has to mean something.
We must be united against attacks on our democracy.
United against those who violate their oaths.
United against a president who incites a violent mob to overturn an election.
That's unity.
It does not matter if a president incites a riot against Congress on their first day or their last.
These calls for unity mean nothing without accountability.
This president is a clear and present danger to our country. He must be impeached and removed from office.
I didn’t come to Congress to impeach the president, but he has left us no other choice.
Today’s vote isn’t about party, it’s about protecting our democracy.
