No excuse. Lyft & Uber cannot stonewall Congressional oversight. They must explain their insufficiently serious attitude towards passengers & drivers who've been assaulted & harassed. If these companies continue to drag their feet & resist reforms they must come before Congress. https://t.co/DMhpyBHshp — PolitiTweet.org

The White House defense’s argument that Trump should not be held accountable for bribery because the managers—following tradition—did not use that exact word in the Articles of Impeachment falls totally flat. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
In 2010, Judge Porteous was impeached for bribery, but the articles only said “he solicited & accepted things of value.” Just as w/Trump, the House managers described the crime; they did not use the word. ICYMI: The Senate unanimously convicted Porteous on the bribery article. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
By the defense counsel’s flawed logic, if President Trump was impeached for “shooting someone on Fifth Avenue” he could not be removed for murder. That’s completely ludicrous. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
A new low: First, the president’s counsel say that if he didn’t commit a crime, he can’t be removed. Now, they’re saying if he did commit a crime, but the crime is not precisely named in the articles (just described) he can’t be impeached. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
This is not complicated: Trump solicited a bribe; the Constitution says he must be removed. — PolitiTweet.org

Bolton, Mulvaney, Blair, Duffey—Americans deserve to hear from witnesses who had eyes & ears on the President. https://t.co/rid4Dxf6v8 — PolitiTweet.org

The White House lawyers have adopted an extreme position where public officials can do almost anything for their reelection. This stance is abhorrent to the idea of public service & the law. https://t.co/amoK5ilAlp — PolitiTweet.org

Troops should be encouraged to seek treatment for harmful symptoms of brain injuries—often difficult to diagnose—no matter what the numbers, or the President’s dismissive talk of “headaches.” Injured troops deserve gold standard treatment. https://t.co/GXxvw2BrwW — PolitiTweet.org

Jacking up the price of a lifesaving drug from $17.50 to $750 is brazen&unacceptable. As a result of Shkreli’s anticompetitive practices, patients lost out on generic Daraprim. The FTC was right to bring a case against Vyera for this price gouging behavior.https://t.co/u5Gty3sZ5G — PolitiTweet.org
