[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

Let’s be clear: This is illegal and unconstitutional. The American people had voted. The courts had ruled. The Electoral College had met and voted. The Governor in every state had certified the results and sent a legal slate of electors to the Congress to be counted. The Vice President has no constitutional authority to tell states to submit alternative slates of electors because his candidate lost. That is tyranny. Our institutions held on Jan 6 because Mike Pence refused to violate his oath to the Constitution. Trump picked JD Vance because Vance will do whatever Trump wants, including violating the Constitution. They are both far too dangerous to serve. It’s our duty to stop them.

I have no difficulty understanding how someone can be both Asian and Black.

I can’t fathom how someone can be a professed Christian and a Trump supporter.

“We're not gonna stay in their frame... We're not gonna play their game. We're gonna call them out for the weird stuff they believe and we presented a different argument to the American public. One where everybody matters."

Make sure you listen to this video. Trump tells his "beautiful Christians" they won't "have to" vote anymore after this election because he'll fix everything. This is how democracy dies.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

If Trump won't give the public transparency about his wound from the Pennsylvania shooting, how can we trust that we have accurate information about anything else to do with his health? We can't.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

.@VP Kamala Harris is the right choice for our country. Someone who believes in the rule of law, who understands how to lead & has earned the respect of foreign leaders. The person President Biden wants us to put our trust in.

Here is John Oliver’s full breakdown of Trump’s Project 2025 plan to reshape America 👇

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

How does the Speaker of the House know what Justices think? The Chief Justice just rejected a request to meet with Senate Judic Cmte saying it was only rarely appropriate to meet, even with bipartisan leaders. I guess Johnson & his friends in the court fly a different flag.

[Mikel Jollett @Mikel_Jollett]

Every Republican senator failed the basic test of citizenship that 12 New Yorkers just passed.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

Headline fix: A 4-year-old girl is dead due to the negligence of an adult gun owner. The man, a prohibited gun purchaser, was able to buy a gun because Florida is a permitless carry state; background checks aren’t required on unlicensed sales. The man is out on $15,000 bond.

Since when are Americans required to provide government with reasons for travel? Outrageous!

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

Lubbock County, TX just banned abortion-related travel, trapping women in a health care desert. This policy violates the constitutional right to travel.

Let’s pass my bill with @RepFletcher and @RepStricklandWA to reaffirm free interstate passage for all Americans.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

Another tragedy in America because SCOTUS majorities think the Founding Fathers intended to protect the "right" of individuals to have assault rifles.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Another deeply mentally ill man, armed with a military semi-automatic rifle, commits mass murder.

This isn’t hard.

a. Keep weapons away from potentially dangerous people.

b. Don’t let anyone have an assault weapon.

Mass shootings decline. Nobody’s 2A rights are harmed.

[Andrea Junker @Strandjunker]

Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994; mass shootings dropped by 43%.

George W. Bush and the GOP let the assault weapons ban expire in 2004; mass shootings increased by 245%.

These numbers tell the whole story.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

In the wake of yet another tragedy, I urge Republican lawmakers in Congress to fulfill their duty to protect the American people.

Work with us to pass a bill banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, enact universal background checks, and more.

[Fred Guttenberg @fred_guttenberg]

These are the text messages sent and received by UNC students two days ago. Just imagine, because of failed politicians and an industry that profits off of gun violence, this is the reality of American Carnage.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

I approve this message.
