Two different grand juries found that Donald Trump committed crimes against the nation.

But Congressional Republicans back him even as he jacks up gas prices, loses idiotic wars, trashes our trade policies, and leaves families with the bill.

Make them pay on November 3rd.

If you can’t speak on an issue without using well-known racist slurs, perhaps you need to be quiet.

If common decency can't make you think twice, at least think about the damage to your own cause.

From leading the first impeachment of Donald Trump despite his blanket obstruction, I helped establish the blueprint for how to uncover his corruption and hold him and his cronies accountable.

I’m honored to be endorsed by my colleagues who served as impeachment managers in Trump’s first and second impeachment trials. 

When we win the majority in Congress, I look forward to leading the vital oversight work we must do so that we can pass a bold agenda to invest in working families.

I am so proud of the New York Nicks. We all should be. This is what “America” feels like. CONGRATULATIONS New York!

It’s a little late for elected Republicans to take a moral high ground. Overwhelmingly, they have rallied to protect rich child sexual predators. Raping children was once considered the worst of the worst. Clean them all out, from the White House, to the Senate, to the House.

Trump is giving your taxpayer dollars to violent criminals who attacked police on Jan 6. He says "in my world, loyalty outranks law. They broke the rules for me."

This is insane.

He's getting geared up to create more chaos to try to stop you from voting.

He underestimates us.

[Val Demings @valdemings]

Section 5 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act basically said, based on their history, we cannot trust southern states to do right by black voters. Therefore, any changes to voting laws had to be approved by the federal government.

As soon as the Supreme Court declared racism over, southern states could not wait to get back to extreme racism. If they think we are going to sit back and let them take us back, they are sadly mistaken. Be careful what you ask for.

My beautiful, smart, kind, and caring granddaughter on Prom Night. She believes in the promise of America but we must continue to fight for it.

The fact that Netanyahu continues to strike Lebanon is a clear sign that Netanyahu dragged President Trump and the United States into this forever war without a clear plan for a U.S. victory. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed. Pray for our troops.

I had the privilege of visiting the City of Orlando Black History Month Exhibition with my friend, Reginald McGill. I am so proud of the exceptional work of all of the featured artist and want to thank Artist Richlin Burnett-Ryan for honoring me in such a special way. Black History is American History.

FBI Director Robert Mueller understood the assignment. He led the FBI and modeled his life on the principles of “Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity.” America, we don’t have to settle for unprincipled and undisciplined people. Mueller never compromised American values for selfish gain. May he rest in peace.

Happy 38th Anniversary to my amazing husband, Orange County's Mayor and Florida's next Governor, Jerry Demings. To God be the Glory. for the things He has done and will do in our lives. Feeling blessed.

Perhaps the U.S. Department of Justice should allow the United Kingdom to handle the Epstein investigation and hold all co-conspirators accountable. Then they wouldn't have to worry about covering up for the president. https://t.co/NbSZ6mtCqH

Every time we overcome prejudice, discrimination, voter suppression, and other man-made barriers to opportunity, we should remember and thank Rev. Jesse Jackson for working to blaze a trail to the American Dream for all people. May he rest in peace.

@Cicotteg Cicotte, why are you so angry? The “shining city
on a hill” is the one President Reagan spoke about. Google it, if YOU don’t know. God bless and we should celebrate America as Bug Bunny did during the half-time show.

[Val Demings @valdemings]

My sons couldn't believe that I didn't know who Bad Bunny was. But I know this: the halftime show was an amazing celebration of the "shining city on a hill.” Real patriotism is believing in that dream of what America can be.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child molester and Donald Trump associate, is in a minimum security facility playing with puppies, because she promised to keep her mouth shut.

Remember America, “no lie can live forever.” Stand up for the victims.

In response to Trump's sad post about the Obamas, let me say this:
President and First Lady Obama have more class and intellect in one day than Donald Trump could muster up in a lifetime. Perhaps no one knows that more than him. Had enough yet America?
