27 years of putting on a bulletproof vest to go to work as a law enforcement officer is not a "sudden interest" in combating violent crime. I reduced violent crime by 40% as Orlando's Chief of Police while Marco Rubio was home asleep in his bed.

Dear @mikepompeo: We both served on active duty because we love America. At the founding, women couldn’t vote and a Black slave was counted as 3/5ths of a person. The U.S. is great because we recognize our failings and overcome them, instead of dangerously whitewashing the truth.

Please stop for a moment and watch this, with the sound on. Share with others. An unflinching rebuttal to all those who are politicizing studies of race and injustice courtesy of Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

From Dalton to Washington, here's my coverage for @AP_GMS of last week's events in French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Luxembourgish, in that order.

This @NYTimes photo of @CapitolPolice Officer Eugene Goodman facing down a mob by himself is breathtaking...

My message to my fellow Americans and friends around the world following this week's attack on the Capitol.

[Mother Jones @MotherJones]

Today I learned: The Former Presidents Act—which guarantees former presidents a pension, access to health insurance, office space and staff, and Secret Service protection—covers all former presidents, unless you're removed by impeachment. https://t.co/PwJk7lOoQS

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

One year ago: We shouldn't impeach Trump, let the voters decide.
Now (when the voters have decided, and Trump has tried to undermine and overturn a free and fair election, including by inciting violence): It's too late to do anything.
For some, there's always an excuse.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Sen. Cruz, you must accept responsibility for how your craven, self-serving actions contributed to the deaths of four people yesterday. And how you fundraised off this riot.

Both you and Senator Hawley must resign. If you do not, the Senate should move for your expulsion.

[MS NOW @MSNOWNews]

Rep. Tim Ryan, who chairs a key subcommittee with jurisdiction over the Capitol, tells reporters that as many as 60 Capitol Police officers were injured Wednesday, including 15 hospitalized and 1 in critical condition. Many were hit in the head with lead pipes, he says.

[Stacey Abrams @staceyabrams]

While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.
