I know I speak for all of you when I express my complete shock and utter incredulity at the suggestion that our fastidiously conscientious and incorruptibly virtuous former president could possibly have committed even the slightest infringement of the Presidential Records Act
Shame falls on a party that would censure persons of conscience, who seek truth in the face of vitriol. Honor attaches to Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for seeking truth even when doing so comes at great personal cost.
Media: @eliehonig to @donlemon: "If #JeffreyClark took the Fifth today, as we believe he did, (a) that was the smart move for him legally, and (b) he had a good reason to. He committed a fraud inside @TheJusticeDept, the very department that's charged with prosecuting fraud."
Trump uses language he knows caused the Jan 6 violence; suggests he’d pardon the Jan 6 defendants, some of whom have been charged with seditious conspiracy; threatens prosecutors; and admits he was attempting to overturn the election.
He’d do it all again if given the chance.
A former Speaker of the House is threatening jail time for members of Congress who are investigating the violent January 6 attack on our Capitol and our Constitution.
This is what it looks like when the rule of law unravels.
Protesters descended on a Washington state board of health office last week to oppose nonexistent "camps" for anti-vaxxers. This crap was pushed on Fox and Newsmax. And it may have started as a JOKE.
@brianstelter There was crap like this rumored in Indianapolis in the 1990s where a large local abandoned Amtrak warehouse was going to house Christians who didn’t agree with the local and state governments. Total BS now and back then. Pure fear mongering.
The Justice Department says a grand jury has indicted Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes and 10 others on a charge of seditious conspiracy related to the Jan. 6 siege.
@ashlyntwebb @marynmck@13wmaznews@sendavidperdue There was a time — if a candidate blocked access to a local newsroom, it would've been a mark against that candidate for lack of transparency.
The assault on the general press being labeled as "enemy of the people" instead of championed as a "check on power" has had an impact
.@sendavidperdue communication director says she’ll video the event inside and send our crew the comments Perdue makes. However, still, the press is being kicked out of an event we were invited to cover
Frankie Ross, the President of Middle Georgia Republican Women, told our crew their was not enough room inside for press. @sendavidperdue campaign apologized to outlets but said we were no longer allowed in.
The Capitol wasn’t prepared for Jan 6th, and should have been. But blaming the security posture for the violence is like blaming a home invasion on the owner for not having a proper security system.

January 6 is just around the corner. I haven’t forgotten what I saw, what I’ve learned, and all the questions I want answered. This attack on America demands a full accountability.
There’s no guarantee that Omicron is the worst this virus will throw at us. We must get past partisanship and pandemic fatigue and use the tools we have to fight Covid: vaccines, masks, ventilation, testing, effective treatments.
This is code for civil war. Casually thrown around by those who never experienced war. Heart medicine won’t be available at Walgreens and half the “play army” folks will be dead in weeks. Not pretty. Side note the union won and determined you cannot succeed.
