Today, the Senate received this powerful letter from 100 legal scholars and leading impeachment experts from across the country, pointing out that abuse of power & non-criminal acts are impeachable and “a president may not abuse the powers of his office to secure re-election.” https://t.co/ocsWEKgwUc — PolitiTweet.org

With no witnesses, no evidence, and no sworn testimony to help us get to the truth, you cannot—by any stretch of the imagination—call this a full & fair impeachment trial. https://t.co/mhNCbdj2oo — PolitiTweet.org

11 years ago this week, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was signed into law, closing loopholes that allow for gender-based wage discrimination. But we've still got work to do - it’s time to pass the #PaycheckFairness Act to help close the pay gap for good. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm deeply concerned this plan will further legitimize Israeli settlements & be seen as green light from Trump Admin for Netanyahu to annex key parts of West Bank. It’s near impossible to believe this approach will lead to dialogue & compromise needed for lasting peace agreement. — PolitiTweet.org

By misleading regulators about their water sampling results, ArcelorMittal has not only likely violated federal law, but jeopardized the public health of local residents & compounded the severity of their original wrongdoing. — PolitiTweet.org

The President is threatening to invoke executive privilege. But as House managers explained, he hasn’t. Why? He’d have to identify which docs/communications he wants to protect. So instead he’s claiming “absolute immunity,“ which courts reject. — PolitiTweet.org
