Stir your mind

Toss in some opposing viewpoints, and stir. I will follow most to keep the conversation going, but that does not = endorsement. Live and Let Live. Equality 🌎

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

Promises from leaders still matter in America. @realDonaldTrump said Mexico would pay for a wall. There’s zero evidence Mexico is paying for a wall. Evidence also still matters. So what we have is an attempt to swindle you into paying for a wall. That we don’t need.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

The House just passed—with bi-partisan support—two bills to re-open government. Both have now earned GOP support in the Senate and the House.

@realDonaldTrump should support passage of these bills immediately and finally end the #TrumpShutdown.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

For two years, the Republican Majority refused to hold the Trump Administration accountable. That ends today.

We will do our jobs. We will work to raise incomes and help all families succeed. We will protect healthcare. And we will do vital oversight.

Now, let's get to work.

[Elijah E. Cummings @RepCummings]

I just voted in favor of legislation to end the Trump shutdown. I urge my colleagues in the Senate to pass the legislation & for President Trump to sign it into law. The American people deserve to have their government back at work for them & federal employees deserve their pay.

[Nancy Pelosi @TeamPelosi]

Together, we did it. It's time to get this House – your House – to work #ForThePeople and the future of our children. -NP

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Here's what we did on our first day:

✓ Voted to reopen the government.
✓ Swore in most diverse Congress ever.

Here's what we're doing next:

✓ Protecting healthcare.
✓ Fighting climate change.
✓ Holding Trump accountable.
✓ Tackling corruption.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Why does @realDonaldTrump keep changing his mind? First it's a wall from sea to shining sea, then $5b for a wall in some places, then $2.1b for a fence, then either a wall or close the Southern Border?

Because he doesn't have public sentiment behind him or the votes.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Dear @realDonaldTrump: A 5 hour border shutdown at just one port of entry cost businesses $5.3 million. Got any more stupid threats? If not, then end your #TrumpShutdown.

Stop acting like a spoiled child. You are the President of the United States of America. Act like it.

PEOPLE/THINGS THAT SAY COHEN HAS BEEN TO PRAGUE

1⃣ Ex-MI6 Russia Chief Chris Steele
2⃣ 2+ Kremlin Insiders Who've Aided MI6
3⃣ 2+ Prague Cell Towers
4⃣ 1 East European Intel Agency
5⃣ 2+ Kremlin Agents on Tape
6⃣ 4 People Who Spoke to European Intel Sources
7⃣ McClatchy
8⃣ Cohen

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

Michael COHEN to MOTHER JONES reporter David CORN in 2016: "I was in Prague [Czech Republic] for one afternoon 14 years ago."

CORN recorded the statement contemporaneously during a call with Cohen.

So if we know one thing for *sure*, it's that the tweet below by Cohen is a lie.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Dear @realDonaldTrump: New poll numbers below.

You don't have public sentiment.

You don't have the votes.

On Jan 3 you will have even less votes.

Cut your losses now. You alone can can end the #TrumpShutdown.

You are President of the greatest nation on earth. Act like it.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

Cohen repeats denial that he has never been to Prague.

[Tea Pain @TeaPainUSA]

@MichaelCohen212 Michael, do you concur with the reporting that one of your cell phones was picked up by a cell tower in or near Prague?
