At every turn, where the Republican policing bill provides a talking point, the @SenBooker-@SenKamalaHarris bill provides real accountability & transparency. The fact that Sen McConnell will not allow the Senate to debate the Booker-Harris bill reveals he's interested in neither. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

I just spoke on the Floor about why I opposed advancing the Republicans’ flawed and partisan policing bill. Here’s my advice to @SenateMajLdr McConnell about what he needs to do if he’s serious about tackling racial injustice & policing reform: https://t.co/F6TrKGdFhf — PolitiTweet.org

Holding hostages for the purpose of trying to intimidate and influence a U.S. judicial process is contrary to U.S. law, and immoral. The Egyptian Government would be well advised to release these people immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

Any senator who cares about an independent judiciary, or cares about the credibility of our courts, or cares about impartial justice must vote NO on Wilson. #CourtsMatter — PolitiTweet.org

What it looks like when Rs treat our courts like a partisan political branch – 5th Cir. nom Cory Wilson believes: • ACA is “perverse” • Voter suppression is “phony” • Pres. Obama is a “fit throwing teenager” • Marriage equality is a “fringe” idea — PolitiTweet.org

No substantive reason has been given for Berman’s dismissal. They indeed wanted him to stay in a high-level position within DOJ, just not be in control of critical SDNY investigations. AG Barr has created a culture of impunity that must be investigated. NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

Why is it that President Trump only seems to fire those who are investigating him or his friends? And why is it that every time AG Barr intervenes, it happens to benefit Trump’s personal interests? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

‘And it’s not even close,’ as POTUS loves to say: This is the most politicized, dishonest & least accountable Justice Dept. in modern times, & that’s a danger to our republic. With Barr serving the personal & political interests of Trump, DOJ is rapidly shedding its credibility. — PolitiTweet.org

I led the Senate investigation into the last time an Attorney General worked with the White House to fire U.S. Attorneys for political reasons. It did not end well for the Attorney General. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

Barr must testify. While I was chairman of @SenJudiciary we had an annual AG oversight hearing. Barr last testified May 1, 2019. That’s multiple scandals ago. Either we live in a democracy with a government accountable to the people, or we don’t. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

This is the most politicized, most dishonest, and least accountable Justice Department in modern times. With AG Barr blindly and aggressively serving the personal and political interests of Trump, DOJ is shedding credibility with both the courts and American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Heading to the Senate Chamber to vote I took a moment to photograph and applaud the Dreamers and press covering the historic DACA decision by the Supreme Court. I think of my grandparents and great-grandparents who emigrated to Vermont and I know they'd cheer this. https://t.co/2QNPeuTztZ — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

This World Refugee Day (6/20), we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the bipartisan Refugee Act, an act I was proud to vote for as a young senator. It enshrined in law our nation's longstanding commitment to serve as a refuge for the persecuted & oppressed. #40YearsOfWelcome — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

In a landmark decision overturning Pres. Trump's heartless & arbitrary termination of #DACA, #SCOTUS affirmed that our nation's #Dreamers have a protected place in our society. And in doing so, SCOTUS reaffirmed the American Dream itself. My comment here: https://t.co/bvz80tBubp — PolitiTweet.org
