Mark Kelly just detonated a political earthquake:
“The President has gone too far. Everybody needs to wake up. The occupant of the Oval Office is ignorant of the Constitution and has no regard for the rule of law. President Trump has crossed a line. This time it’s not gonna work. I will not be intimidated. I will not be silenced.”
A sitting U.S. Senator saying this out loud about a sitting President is not normal, it’s a five-alarm warning about the state of American democracy.
I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.
If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.
🚨 HAPPENING NOW: Thousands have flooded the streets of D.C. for the “Remove the Regime” rally.
Crowds are chanting “IMPEACH, CONVICT, REMOVE” and “LOCK HIM UP.”
BREAKING: In a shocking moment, Medicare & Medicaid head Mehmet Oz says if you want lower insurance premiums, just don't get sick. "If you really want to drop the cost of health care in America, get healthier."
Sick advice from an absolute quack.
Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
🚨 I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it was President @JoeBiden who secured the release of 140 hostages in Gaza. Trump? Just 28.
That means Biden was responsible for 83% of all the hostages freed — yet you’d never know it from the way the media talks.
If anyone deserves the title “Peace President,” it’s #46 — not the guy bombing fishing boats in international waters and sending masked agents to terrorize Americans.
IF ANY CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY SIGNS THIS RADICAL AGREEMENT, THEY'LL LOSE BILLIONS IN STATE FUNDING — INCLUDING CAL GRANTS — INSTANTLY.
CALIFORNIA WILL NOT BANKROLL SCHOOLS THAT SELL OUT THEIR STUDENTS, PROFESSORS, RESEARCHERS, AND SURRENDER ACADEMIC FREEDOM.

🚨 BREAKING: James Comey posts a video statement following his indictment
"My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump, but we couldn't imagine ourselves living any other way.
We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn't either.
Somebody that I love dearly recently said that fear is the tool of a tyrant. And she's right. But I'm not afraid. And I hope you're not either.
I hope instead you are engaged. You are paying attention. And you will vote—like your beloved country depends upon it, which it does.
My heart is broken for the Department of Justice. But I have great confidence in the federal judicial system.
And I'm innocent. So let's have a trial and keep the faith."
Today, I voted against the Charlie Kirk Resolution.
While I condemn his violent murder, this resolution sought to elevate Charlie Kirk as a role model.
I could not support in good conscience.
Read my statement below:
We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was: a man who believed that the Civil Rights Act that granted Black Americans the right to vote was a “mistake,” who after the violent attack on Paul Pelosi claimed that “some amazing patriot out there” should bail out his assailant, and accused Jews of controlling “not just the colleges – it’s the nonprofits, it’s the movies, it’s Hollywood, it’s all of it.”
His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans – far from “working tirelessly to promote unity” as asserted by the majority in this resolution.”
We can condemn his horrific assassination and the scourge of political violence without uplifting these ideas.
BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT KID ROCK IS NOT IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF OUR GREAT STATE, I AM GIVING SERIOUS CONSIDERATION TO TAKING AWAY HIS RESIDENCY. HE IS A THREAT TO CALIFORNIA'S EARDRUMS, AND SHOULD REMAIN IN THE WONDERFUL STATE OF MICHIGAN, IF THEY WANT HIM. GOD BLESS AMERICA! — GCN
