President Trump’s defense is clear: HE CAN DO THIS AGAIN.

McCarthy let @RepLizCheney twist in the wind, nearly lose her leadership post while he had this info???? HOw effing shameful is THAT?

[CNN Politics @CNNPolitics]

In an expletive-laced phone call with House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy during the Capitol attack, Trump appeared to side with rioters and gave no indication he would urge supporters to back down, according to newly revealed details of their conversation https://t.co/UWyQaZSNXo

You're going to hear a lot of bad faith arguments about impeachment.

Trump’s team will argue you can’t convict former officials or presidents.

But history shows otherwise! And the Founders disagreed, too.

Let's turn to 18th Century Britain. (Stay with me, folks)

No matter what Trump claims, there’s no First Amendment right to incite an insurrection.

Just because Trump vocalized his corrupt intent doesn't mean it's protected "free speech."

There's no First Amendment defense to violating your Constitutional duty.

He should be convicted.

The mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida was real and not staged.

This is all to say that survivors are watching. Loved ones are watching. They may share their story tomorrow, or in months or years. Or they may never.

Speaking vitriol towards other survivors hurts you & your loved ones. Bc dismissers rob themselves of meaningful relationships.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

To be honest, every step of the way there were affirmers - @RepKatiePorter offering safety, @AyannaPressley pressing the pause button to acknowledge trauma, the courage of @Biaggi4NY, @yuhline, @CatalinaCruzNY & many others to tell their stories publicly helped me share mine.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

You may not know that you know a survivor, but it’s highly likely that you do.

Survivors of trauma are close to you. They are people you love & you may not know.

Many decide whether their story is safe with someone by how they respond to other survivors.

Don’t push them away.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The sad thing about disinformation is that once the truth comes out, the damage has already been done. People have already been misled, radicalized & believe lies to a point where their hatred has brewed to violence.

That’s what led to the 6th, and it’s happening right now.

Kyle Rittenhouse has violated his bond, and prosecutors are getting an arrest warrant. Good.

Lock his ass up, and KEEP him locked up.

[Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen]

BREAKING: The Senate has voted 50-49 in favor of moving the $1.9 trillion COVID relief package forward using budget reconciliation.

No Republicans voted for the resolution.

"Take On Me" is the best song out of the '80s. Fight me.

Ron Johnson is THE most vulnerable GOP Senator up in 2022. After the insurrection, 60% of Wisconsinites said he should be replaced. But it'll take a massive effort to win. We just need 197 new monthly donors to reach our January goal of 1000—chip in now! https://t.co/hr8sJFWiza
