President Biden tried to craft a bipartisan bill. But Republicans told him, in no uncertain terms, that they weren’t willing to go big. They said they would only support a small relief package that would have been an ineffective box checking exercise. That’s what happened.
The #FBI has brought to justice many of the participants in the violence at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, but more people are still at large. If you know this individual, submit a tip at https://t.co/iL7sD5efWD. When you leave a tip, refer to photo 135.
Congress has not passed a single life-saving gun bill in 27 years. Today, we urge ALL @HouseGOP members to join the @HouseDemocrats to vote YES to #HR8 & #HR1446 to honor Jaime & too many others who have been taken from their families too soon. #HonorWithAction#EndGunViolence
Today, after 528,000 deaths from Covid, 0 House Republicans voted for Covid relief.
On January 6, with no evidence of voter fraud and after insurrectionists attacked the Capitol, 139 House Republicans voted to overturn the 2020 election results.
What more do you need to know?
Today Congress will vote on the HR8 Background Checks. Almost every Dem will vote yes & almost almost every Rep, with a variety of nuanced reasons, will vote no while agreeing it will save lives. This is supported by over 90% of the American voters. VOTE YES TO SAVING LIVES!!!

Anybody else excited about it?
At $1.9tn, the American Rescue Plan costs about the same as Trump’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. But where TCJA gave most of the $$ to business and the wealthy, the ARP focuses the help where it belongs. My @Morning_Joe chart:
The president's approval rating regarding his management of the pandemic has been consistent since he took office in January - the American people recognize and are rewarding competence and a belief in science over chaos and Covidiots.

The Biden White House’s “just keep your head down and work” strategy seems to be really confusing a lot of folks.
