The Administration can't hide behind a closed, classified hearing. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. The American people deserve to hear the truth. — PolitiTweet.org

An open hearing is vital to give the American public the facts about President Trump's betrayal of our loyal Kurdish partners & American national security. The closed hearing planned for Thursday is good, but not good enough. — PolitiTweet.org

Congress has an obligation to conduct critical oversight at this crucial moment, & we must work together to address the alarming & dangerous ramifications of this strategic miscalculation. — PolitiTweet.org

These developments are extremely alarming&have sparked bipartisan outrage. In addition to clear security risks, the withdrawal of American forces in Syria&abandonment of our most loyal partners in the fight against ISIS undoubtedly compromises American alliances internationally. — PolitiTweet.org

I will be looking to assess the impact on ISIS of US troop withdrawal from Syria, the extent to which American manufactured military equipment is being used by Turkey & possible sanctions in response to the Turkish offensive. — PolitiTweet.org

Pleased that the Senate Armed Services Committee will hold an oversight hearing on Syria, but there must be an open portion to ensure this Admin is held accountable to the American people for its reckless national security strategy. Congressional oversight must be transparent. — PolitiTweet.org

Through forced arbitration, Juul is preventing Americans from having their day in court. In the midst of an ongoing youth vaping epidemic, this tactic adds insult to injury & stymies true justice. https://t.co/hTr6jEgO7H — PolitiTweet.org

Americans deserve to know whether Turkey is using American made & sold F-16s or other lethal weapons to slaughter our Kurdish partners. If so, the President’s betrayal is even worse. As a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, I am demanding answers from the Pentagon. — PolitiTweet.org

Hardly surprising: Money laundering & other crimes made two Trump donors natural Giuliani associates in advancing now debunked conspiracy plots. Federal prosecutors are doing their job. https://t.co/vXqKsgc0y6 — PolitiTweet.org

The answer to Trump's reprehensible betrayal of the Kurds, & our national security, is 1) immediately imposing sanctions on the Turks & ending arm sales, 2) prompt aid to the Kurds, 3) emergency Senate Armed Services Committee hearings next week. — PolitiTweet.org

Like most things with Trump his betrayal of allies & national interest can be explained by his true priorities—his pocketbook & ego. Trump’s “little conflict of interest” is illegal & his kowtowing to the Turks is immoral. https://t.co/TvdgETOwPY — PolitiTweet.org

Erdogan prepares troops to invade Syria & attack the Kurds. Trump’s response—reward him with an invite to the WH. We should be protecting our partners, not clearing the way for their persecution, while wining & dining their attacker’s leadership. https://t.co/Nv2Chj2Dse — PolitiTweet.org

In addition to Giuliani, the Judiciary Committee should also call Barr & other Admin officials to hold them accountable for degrading the rule of law. Politicizing DOJ & law enforcement should directly concern the Committee, which has oversight responsibility. That's our job. — PolitiTweet.org

To understand Trump’s kowtowing to the Turks, follow the money to his “little conflict of interest” in Istanbul—two “major, major” Trump Towers. He betrays allies&national interest—all over the world, again&again—to pursue dollars, political gain&ego. https://t.co/Fp5kt4UBeu — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s acknowledged “little conflict of interest” is actually a “major, major building in Istanbul” called Trump Tower that provided him as much as $17 million—courtesy of a Turkish oligarch & President Erdogan. Tragically, the Kurds may end up paying the ultimate price. — PolitiTweet.org

Another puzzling, deadly foreign policy decision based on no legitimate rationale—plus Trump admitted he has “a little conflict of interest” with Turkey. My emoluments case is trying to breakdown the web of connections Trump is spinning to further his bottom line. — PolitiTweet.org
