Here is the oath all executive branch employees take. It is to support and defend the Constitution, not to “implement the president’s agenda.” If the two purposes diverge, the Constitution prevails.
We’re barely three weeks in, but Trump is laying the groundwork to allow staggering levels of corruption to occur in the US Government.
Here are five actions he's already taken to open the flood gates of corruption – just the facts🧵
Bernie Sanders: "The key point here is that what Trump did is illegal and unconstitutional. The power of the purse rests with Congress and not with the executive."
Trump’s remarks in the Capitol Visitor Center today were a reminder that neither lies nor the liar who tells them get better with age. The Select Committee evidence is available on multiple websites and, as a criminal defendant, Donald Trump has had access to all the transcripts for years. Remember Trump’s character: He sat in his dining room watching on television as his supporters attacked our Capitol and brutally assaulted law enforcement. For hours, he refused to instruct the mob to leave. The truth will never change.

Two years ago, I was proud to sign the Respect for Marriage Act into law—requiring interracial and same-sex marriages to be recognized in every state in the nation.
It was a vital step towards creating a nation where decency, dignity, and love are honored and protected.
The Constitution is our country's most sacred document, laying out the foundations of our democracy: Rule of law, fair elections, and a peaceful transfer of power.
It’s too important to set it aside for one man. Choose America over Trump.
