While Donald Trump and Barry Loudermilk continue to spread malicious lies about the 1/6 Select Committee, Trump is trying yet again to hide evidence and suppress the truth. The Justice Department has obtained testimony and evidence from dozens of Trump’s former advisors and Vice President Pence showing the danger Trump poses. Now Trump is already doing what despots do— he is trying to conceal the truth and threatening to jail those who investigated him. The congressional report yesterday destroying Loudermilk’s fraudulent allegations shows the despicable malice behind Trump’s efforts. AG Garland now has a duty to release the Justice Department Report and prevent its evidence from being destroyed. The truth must prevail. The framers of our Constitution knew the lessons of history — that people led by men without character can quickly lose their freedom.

We will stop talking about race when people stop doing things like this

Only a Republican could favor beating disabled children in school. I’m disgusted by the lot of them. If they have to resort to the Old Testament to justify it, ask how many of them divorced and remarried while their first wife is alive, then stone them for adultery. Geez.

Are we really supposed to believe that Supreme Court justices can go on luxury trips paid by Republican megadonors and then fairly judge their allies in court?

I’m not buying it. To restore trust in our judiciary, we need a binding, enforceable code of conduct for SCOTUS.

2 weeks ago my book The Hill We Climb and 3 others were removed from elementary school shelves @MDCPS Bob Graham Education Center in Florida. But when they go low we go high. I’ve helped purchase 1,200 copies of these challenged books to be given away for FREE today at 6pm. They’ll be @ the Sanctuary for Banned Books @ The Coral Gables Congregational Church, along with a free poetry reading featuring amazing authors!

Students from New Orleans, Louisiana, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, for the Team Harmony Summit greet survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, Mother Viola Fletcher, 109, Hughes Van Ellis, 102, and Leslie Benningfield Randall, 108.

The teens attended a historic court hearing in support of the survivors lawsuit against the city of Tulsa for the trauma and losses they suffered during the Massacre.

We tracked down both the funding source & the #Oklahoma political firm behind an independent expenditure group that spent more than $100k to take down an incumbent state senator. The same firm is also using similar groups in the #Tulsa city & county races https://t.co/LJL1qKX2wO

🤔Does an executive order from the governor actually carry any weight?
I reached out to both @Okla_OAG and @GovStitt about potential violations of his order banning wasteful spending on public relations.
I'll share their surprising responses after the game on @OKCFOX. #oklaed

So proud of the talented athletes representing @TeamUSA at the @Paralympics! I'll be cheering them on and hope you will, too.

Zero voter fraud in Oklahoma, y’all. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Gonna file this is the ever growing binder titled “Crap Most Normal People Definitely Already Knew”. Yet you know we’ll prolly see some new bill authored to “strengthen” election security.*

[Madison Horn @MadisonHornOK]

When I was asked to speak at the education rally against Ryan Walters, I didn’t hesitate for a second. These state-level issues demand action, and as a leader, it’s my duty to step up and push for change, even if I don’t hold direct authority. Saying, “Not my problem,” isn’t leadership—it’s a cop-out. As you head to the polls, remember who’s been silent when our state needed them to speak up. @RepBice
