What we heard today from Donald Trump’s lawyers is that he can no longer be held accountable for his actions to provoke a terrorist mob to violently overthrow a legitimate government process because he is no longer a sitting President. That’s wrong. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to put an end to Donald Trump’s ‘Big Lie’ once and for all. For the sake of Officer Brian Sicknick, for the sake of all those wounded on January 6, and for the sake of our democracy—he must be held accountable. https://t.co/pPrHtNp6yS — PolitiTweet.org

Congress must also play a role in combatting extremism in our armed forces. My Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act would establish an interagency task force to analyze & combat white supremacist & neo-Nazi infiltration of the uniformed services & Federal law enforcement agencies. — PolitiTweet.org
