The President just declared war on millions of Americans and the 1st Amendment. He is the greatest threat to the American way of life in our history.

- Say what you will about Trump, he sure is loyal to the country that elected him.President Trump says Russia should be allowed back into the G7 cnn.it/2JDdCQA snappytv.com/tc/8162554
- As one of the first six members to jump into the impeachment pool, I invite all of my Republican and Democratic colleagues to join me. Just imagine how much more easily you'll be able to live with yourself for the rest of your life.
- We need to pass this life-saving bill now. Mitch, just pretend it’s an unqualified white man seeking a lifetime judicial appointment.NEW: @senatemajldr Mitch McConnell shut down a @HouseDemocrats coronavirus plan that includes paid sick leave, free testing and unemployment benefits on Thursday, describing it as liberal 'wish list.’ bit.ly/2w1aTM5 #KYSen
- I’m so proud of my @NRA rating, I’ll wear it on my chest. I invite my colleagues to join me in wearing our F ratings every day until the GOP finally stands up to the gun lobby and helps us pass common sense gun safety legislation. Find me to get a pin. #MarchForOurLives
- I served with Ilhan Omar and spoke to her about her attitude about Jews and Israel. As a Jew, I’m convinced she is not anti-Semitic.
- I’m the House sponsor of the #BuildBackBetter Act, and I can tell you that Joe Manchin’s reasons for opposing this legislation are complete BS. I don’t know if he doesn’t get it or just doesn’t care, but the American people will pay the price.
- RIP to the soul and conscience of my friend Mick Mulvaney.Mick Mulvaney says it was "not unreasonable" for "some 23- or 24-year-old person" working in the White House to ask the Navy to move the U.S.S. John S. McCain trib.al/oWaVM2e
- With respect to Speaker Pelosi, I’ve known Mitch for 50 years. He’s in denial of nothing. He just doesn’t give a damn.Nancy Pelosi just hours before this announcement: "In blocking it, they are in denial of the hardship the American people are experiencing now, health wise, financially, and every way."
- I’m not going to the AIPAC Conference, and not only am I pro-Israel and pro-Jewish, I AM Jewish. I'm also anti-Netanyahu and anti-Trump."The Democrats have very much proven to be anti-Israel," said Pres Trump, asked about Dems and himself not attending the @AIPAC Conference. "They are totally anti-Israel," calling it "a disgrace." He says,"frankly, I think they’re anti-Jewish."
- Yale Law School should be embarrassed. The judge’s legal role is to define what executive powers are legitimate. It’s called separation of powers, which you apparently don’t believe in.If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal. If a judge tried to command the attorney general in how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that's also illegal. Judges aren't allowed to control the executive's legitimate power.
- Trump didn’t shoot someone on Fifth Avenue. He shot himself in the foot on the White House South Lawn. Shameful. Illegal. Dangerous.Trump at 10:37:24 a.m., talking about trade negotiations: "I have a lot of options on China, but if they don't do what we want, we have tremendous power." Trump at 10:37:54 a.m., asked about Ukraine probe: "Likewise, China should start an investigation into the Bidens."
- Responding to allegations of sexual misconduct by trying to publicly shame yet another woman, the president has shown us exactly what kind of person he is. Donald Trump has proven to be a poison for the presidency, a cancer on the country, and a truly disgraceful human being.Lightweight Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a total flunky for Chuck Schumer and someone who would come to my office “begging” for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them), is now in the ring fighting against Trump. Very disloyal to Bill & Crooked-USED!
- Hey moron: the third line of the Iran Nuclear Deal guaranteed just that. Maybe you should have read it before you tore it up.
