@RepLizCheney
I can't Thank You enough for your service to our country.
Again thank you for honesty, integrity, and your book, which I expect to get tomorrow!
I wish you a wonderful Holiday Season.
How much more does Trump have to violate the laws, protocols, country loyalty, break oaths of office, extort, obstruct, lie, cheat, steal before he goes to jail?
How much more?
In his case, Justice is not only blind, it appear to be totally NON-EXISTENT.
HUGE: Trump's own White House lawyer is now warning that the former President is in serious legal jeopardy in the classified documents case, and that his other former attorneys' testimony will be used against him.
Ty Cobb, who served as Trump's White House lawyer, now claims that the evidence that the former President committed a crime is "increasingly solid every day."
He added: "I think we had an exchange where I was commenting on it sounded like there was a lot of i-dotting and t-crossing, which suggests they're near the end...I do believe that is the case. They have some compelling evidence. I think the evidence with regard to the moving of the boxes, the evidence that they're relying on primarily with regard to the movement of the boxes they received the day after those boxes were moved. There were tapes of this, you know, the access and to the storage room."
He went on to say that Trump's other former lawyers Evan Corcoran and Tim Parlatore could present more legal challenges for him:
"Keep in mind that, you know, Corcoran testified that he warned Trump that he could not retain any classified documents beyond the subpoena..."And Parlatore, you know, he subsequently resigned, you know, expressed great concerns about directions that were given by [Trump adviser] Boris Epshteyn, and the extent that Epshteyn was translating their advice faithfully."
Who else thinks Jack Smith and the prosecutors building their case against Trump need to hurry up? ✋
They are lucky they weren't shot by a firing squad for Treason. The very country they are trying to destroy saved their asses by Rule of Law. A principal their phoney conman & alleged criminal guy they follow couldn't care less about.
BREAKING: Are we tired of winning yet folks? Jessica Watkins, a member of the far-right Oath Keepers militia, is sentenced to 8.5 years in prison for her role in the Jan. 6th insurrection.
Disgracefully, Watkins is an Army veteran. The U.S. government trained her to wage war only for her to turn around and use that training in an attempt to overthrow our democracy.
The judge said her actions during the Capitol attack were "more aggressive" and "more assaultive" than others and she failed to immediately show remorse. She eventually apologized for her actions in a transparent attempt to save herself.
She was convicted of conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding but managed to weasel her way out of the charge of seditious conspiracy.
With Watkins behind bars, America will be a little bit safer. Crucially, her conviction and stiff sentencing will help to deter other Trumpers from attempting another coup if he loses the next election.
Retweet to thank the judge!
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: Lauren Boebert’s son called 911 in tears to report that his father was abusing him.
She reportedly cut off the call to tell them he was fine.
Here’s the thing.
Either:
1) Boebert’s son illegally made a FALSE report to law enforcement, which is a crime.
2) Lauren Boebert is helping to cover up her son’s physical abuse.
Maybe, just maybe, Lauren Boebert should stop making jokes about pronouns on Twitter and worry about her own f*cking family.
What do you think?
BREAKING: Liz Cheney SLAMS Ron DeSantis over his promise to pardon the Jan. 6 rioters:
“Any candidate who says they will pardon Jan. 6 defendants is not qualified to be President.”
Republicans create or ignore problems... Democrats try to solve them!
If Republicans can't do their jobs and solve problems for regular folks, they should quit & work in the private sector (and see how long they're last).
President Biden isn’t threatening a default on our debt.
Kevin McCarthy is.
The President isn’t holding the country hostage unless we hurt hungry families, hobble social services for our elderly & abandon our veterans in need of healthcare.
Kevin McCarthy is.
There is only one person in power who is yielding to the loudest, angriest, most un-democratic voices in his party, and it’s not Joe Biden.
It’s Kevin McCarthy.
If we default, something we’ve NEVER done, something which would be catastrophic for America, there is one man to blame…
#BlameKevinMcCarthy
By creating problems & sowing the seeds of discontent, Republicans hope to increase their chances of winning elections.
Don't fall for this corrupted phoney strategy. Note they only make a big deal about the debt when democrats are in charge.
NEWS: President Biden is meeting with GOP House Speaker on the debt limit crisis, which is quickly approaching a point of no return.
12.5 million jobs created.
Unemployment at 3.5%, lowest in 50 years.
Inflation is steadily dropping.
And what do Republicans want to do?
They want to blow it all up.
And they want to blame President Biden.
If the United States defaults on its debt, it will be catasrophic to our economy, to regular Americans, to everyone except for the wealthy one percent they are fighting to make wealthier.
Social security checks will literally stop going out.
Millions of Americans will lose their jobs.
When you don't pay your electric bill, your light go out. Republicans will be shutting off America's lights.
Don't let this #RepublicanDefaultCrisis happen.
PASS IT ON.
The debt ceiling doesn’t keep our national debt down, but it does threaten long-term financial harm.
Watch me apply a debt ceiling to everyday life—and see why it doesn’t work.
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: In another HUGE embarrassment for Kevin McCarthy a new poll finds Americans STRONGLY support President Biden’s position on avoiding a default crisis.
An astounding 58% of the American population believes that Congress should handle 1) the issue of paying its debts to avoid default and 2) debates on federal spending as DISTINCT matters.
That means 3/5 Americans do NOT support Republicans using threats of default as a political bargaining chip.
The Washington Post/ABC poll also found only 26% of Americans agree with Republicans who say Biden should agree to spending cuts before Congress pays its debt.
Americans DO NOT support Kevin McCarthy or his GOP created default crisis.
If you want to help EMBARRASS Kevin McCarthy, RT and use the hashtag #RepublicanDefaultCrisis before his meeting at the White House today.
Kevin McCarthy is a coward and a traitor!
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: AOC DESTROYS Kevin McCarthy for the holding the national debt hostage and for suggesting Washington needs to “spend less.”
“Ok, then undo the yacht and private jet tax breaks the GOP passed for themselves,” AOC retorted.
“Why should single moms and veterans have to pay for the GOP’s giveaways to the rich?
Especially when you don’t even have the votes of your own caucus?” She added.
Let’s get this straight:
The Republicans want nothing more than to pretend that the debt ceiling needs to be lifted to accommodate next year's budget. They frame it that way relentlessly, and sad to say, lazy journalists buy into their framing. The debt ceiling needs to be raised to pay for all the spending the Republicans authorized in 2017 when they gave away a substantial chunk of the Treasury to their rich pals.
So now the time comes that we need to pay the country's bills incurred in the last several years and now coming due. But we're a little short on cash since we gave rich people more money, so now it's time for disabled and retired citizens to pungle up, and single mothers living close to the bone have to forego SNAP benefits. Because Kevin McCarthy couldn't possibly ask
mega billionaires to pay more.
The middle class should no longer carry the majority of the tax burden and the tax breaks for the rich. Let them pay their fair share for a change.
BREAKING: FBI drops bombshell on Jim Jordan, reveals that the two ex-FBI agents who became House Republicans’ “whistleblowers” are actually now being paid by Trump’s close associates and are Trumpers who think that the January 6 insurrectionists are “innocent.” But it gets worse.
They’ve also been spreading Trump’s dangerous Big Lie — and of them even purposefully sabotaged an investigation into a January 6 insurrectionist who was later determined to be guilty of “physically assaulting” Capitol Police officers after incriminating evidence was later discovered by another investigator who actually did his job.
Please retweet and ❤️ to expose Jim Jordan and his phony “whistleblowers” — and consider joining Tribel, a new, growing Twitter competitor I created that is driving Musk and Trumpers crazy because it filters out their fake news. Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account last week, but he hasn’t yet banned this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/0c9FDbB14A
Note to the GOP: If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.
Learning about our history is a critical part of making sure we don’t repeat it.

As a pilot since I was 16. I have spent my life in the Air Traffic Control System. Flying both private and commercial. This onerous plan from the House GOP to close 375+ plus control towers would make the entire system come to a complete stop. It would not just "slow it down" like many in the GOP say. There would be a complete shutdown of the system much like after 9-11. If this is allowed to happen there will be no scheduled airline service at all. Airline flights have to be under ATC control. Nothing will fly. You cannot strip out over 90% of the employees and shut 375 towers and still have a safe useable ATC system in the country. For all of ya'll that laughed along with Donald Trump about forcing this horrible plan. Hope you don't have to fly anywhere for work or vacation. Because if this stupidity happens. You ain't going anywhere. @NewBlueUSA #DemVoice1
Damn Right!! They need to do their jobs and solve problems - not create them.
They should be personally responsible for damages caused by divisiveness and other partisan political games.
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: A bipartisan bill has been introduced that would block members of Congress from getting paid if the U.S. enters debt default or if the government shuts down.
The No Pay for Congress During Default or Shutdown Act, introduced by Reps. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), would withhold lawmakers' pay for the duration of a debt limit breach or lapse in federal funding, an attempt to motivate legislators to prevent either situation.
The bill comes amid growing fears that Republicans will not agree to meet the June 1 deadline set by the Treasury Department to raise the debt limit and risk a catastrophic default on U.S. obligations.
“Lawmakers should not be rewarded with our salaries until we do our jobs," Spanberger said.
What are your thoughts? Should it pass?
