John Fetterman (Pennsylvania)
Tim Kaine (Virginia)

Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire)
Elissa Slotkin (Michigan)
Maggie Hassan (New Hampshire)
The law is clear: Members of Congress are allowed in ICE detention centers to conduct oversight without prior notice. A court ruling affirmed that 3 weeks ago.
🚨 HOLY SMOKES: New video shows ICE agents smashing the window of a protester’s vehicle and forcibly pulling him out in Minneapolis and he was immediately detained.
Protesters in the area are furious, and tensions are exploding.
This is escalation, not policing.
The lack of empathy, gaslighting, and lies coming from this Administration is shameful and dangerous. A woman has died. People are scared. And, over 30 people have died in detention. They are inciting violence and endangering our communities. It must stop. Which is why I’m joining the effort to impeach.
"Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged from their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, & children separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared"

BREAKING: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey just said that ICE agents detained somebody from a car in the middle of a main road and they didn't put the car in park. The car then rolled down the road without anyone in it, putting many people's lives in danger.
“It could've hit anybody, including my own family members. So this isn't about safety, clearly. If this was about safety, you wouldn't do stupid things like that. Somebody is going to get hurt. Somebody has gotten killed.”
BREAKING: Jerome Powell issues a DEFIANT message to Trump after his DOJ criminally indicted him. Powell rightly says that this is a politically motivated indictment because he refused to bend the knee to Trump. Retweet to stand with Chairman Powell!
“I don’t doubt that Maduro is a criminal but so is Trump. I don’t doubt that Maduro rigged the elections, but so did Trump. I don’t doubt that Maduro weaponized the justice system but so has Trump” ~Rev Kevin Johnson of Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem
Not the ball drop we wanted for the New Year. Republicans could have so easily voted to extend the credits. One year. Two years. Three years. They rejected all.

Schiff: I think it's valuable that the American people get a sense of what you have refused to answer today. So these are just some of the questions you refuse to answer, but or have answered with personal attacks on members of this committee. You were asked whether you consulted with career ethics lawyers, as you promised you would do during your nomination hearing. When you approved the president receiving a $400 million gift from the qataris, you refused to answer that question. You were asked who or what role you may have played, or who played the role in asking the trump's name be flagged in any of the Epstein documents gathered by the FBI? You refuse to answer that question. You were asked whether Homan kept the $50,000 bribe money. You refuse to answer that question. You were asked whether Homan paid taxes on the $50,000 bribe money. You refused to answer that question. You were asked, did career prosecutors find insufficient evidence to charge James Comey. You refused to answer that question. You were asked, how are military strikes on these boats in the caribbean legal. And you refuse to even answer that question. You are asked, excuse me, excuse me? You are asked, did you discuss indicting James Comey with the president. You refused to answer that question. You were asked, did you approve the firing of antitrust lawyers who disagreed with the Hewlett Packard merger. You refused to answer that question. You were asked whether you support a restoration fund for violent insurrections, insurrections to attack the capitol on January 6th. Refuse to answer that question. You were asked whether you were firing career professionals, career prosecutors just because they worked on January 6th. Question January 6th investigations. You refuse to answer that question. You were asked by my colleague whether you believe government officials, like immigration officials, have to abide by court orders. You wouldn't answer that question
