Patriotism knows no gender nor orientation.   Ending the transgender military ban is another vital step in restoring America’s promise of equality.   Anyone with the courage and sense of duty to serve this country should be allowed to do so — with our thanks and gratitude. — PolitiTweet.org

Russians are taking to the streets today in the freezing cold to peacefully demand freedom, human rights for all their citizens, an end to corruption, and the immediate release of Alexei @Navalny.   I stand with them. The United States, and the world, must stand with them, too. — PolitiTweet.org

For four years, our values were belittled, the rule of law was battered, and our democracy was broken down. By a deeply unethical man who had no business in the Oval Office. Our democracy survived, but only just. What we do to rebuild, will determine its future. And our own. — PolitiTweet.org

Through his lies and provocations, Trump incited a mob to attack the peaceful transfer of power.   As House members, we did our job and impeached him.  It will soon be time for Senators to do theirs. To protect the country, Trump must be disqualified from any further office. — PolitiTweet.org

The brutal murder of Jamal Khashoggi was an assault on human rights. But for a year the Trump Admin refused to make public an unclassified report on Saudi Arabia's culpability. I have asked Director Haines to declassify this report. There must be accountability and justice. https://t.co/yr5fukB7vh — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago, the U.S. recorded its first COVID-19 case. More than 410,000 deaths later, we finally have a national strategy. The path forward won’t be easy. And the winter is going to be dark. But we will prioritize science, truth and transparency. We will beat this virus. — PolitiTweet.org

With this order, we once again put our faith in science and in our ability to adapt and overcome great difficulties. We rejoin the world in protecting our planet for generations to come. What we do to fight climate change will determine our legacy— Or if we will even have one. — PolitiTweet.org

For four years, intelligence professionals were battered and belittled by a President afraid of the truth. Avril Haines will ensure that politics is kept out of their work, just as it should be. Congratulations, @ODNIgov Director Haines, and look forward to our work together. — PolitiTweet.org

America faces some of the gravest challenges in our history. We must act now.   Day 1: ✔️Mask mandate ✔️Ending the Muslim Ban ✔️Rejoining the Paris Climate Accords ✔️Pausing student loan payments ✔️Extending eviction moratorium   There is no time to waste. — PolitiTweet.org

For four years, our values and our democracy were under attack. With difficulty, we withstood the assault. But for the first time in a long time I’m breathing a sigh of relief. Today marks the beginning of a national renewal. The hopes of a nation are with you, Mr. President. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Bannon is getting a pardon from Trump after defrauding Trump’s own supporters into paying for a wall that Trump promised Mexico would pay for. And if that all sounds crazy, that’s because it is. Thank God we have only 12 more hours of this den of thieves. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

For two years, I’ve fought to ensure accountability for Jamal Khashoggi’s brutal torture and murder. We even mandated a public accounting in law. And for two years, the Trump Administration blocked us, and kept it classified. This welcome change can’t come soon enough. — PolitiTweet.org

400,000 lives lost to COVID-19.   The death toll is staggering. For some, incomprehensible. Unless you're one of the families in mourning. Or have one of the 400,000 empty seats at your dinner table.   My heart goes out to everyone in pain. We will get through this, together. — PolitiTweet.org

The insurrection was an act of domestic terrorism, fueled by white supremacism and incited by Trump. It was also a massive intelligence and security failure. What intel was gathered before Jan 6? Was it shared? Why wasn’t it acted upon? Were members involved? We must find out. https://t.co/gjYbYnNoJr — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Donald Trump should never receive another intelligence briefing — not now, and not in the future. He cannot be trusted and has done enough damage to our country already. Trump remains a security threat, and will continue to be a security threat long after he leaves office. https://t.co/bCe7tm7eEb — PolitiTweet.org

This plan is a no brainer: • New $2k relief checks • Expedited vaccine rollout • Eviction moratorium • Increased minimum wage to $15/hour The road to recovery is long. But recovery is not the only goal. We must create a better, more equitable and just society. Let's go. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, we impeached Donald Trump for the second time. I hope that when we look back on the day we did so, it will be remembered as the day America got off the road to dictatorship and returned to the path of our Founders envisioned for us: A democratic republic. https://t.co/VGiDcW2VQr — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

For the fourth time in American history, and the second time in Donald Trump’s dangerous and destructive tenure, a president has been impeached.   We will defend our democracy against all threats, foreign and domestic. Donald Trump must be removed, never to hold office again. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's talk about unity. It’s not an empty talking point. It has to mean something. We must be united against attacks on our democracy. United against those who violate their oaths. United against a president who incites a violent mob to overturn an election. That's unity. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Trump incited an insurrection against a peaceful transfer of power. And yet our democracy endures. Throughout history, at every pivotal moment when evil threatened to overtake good, patriotic Americans stepped forward to say “enough.” This is one of those moments. Enough. https://t.co/bArIDc5JCM — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Trump whipped up a mob into a frenzy. He told them to go to the Capitol and “fight like hell.” And they did. With tragic results. And it could have been much, much worse. Upholding our oath means recognizing that every second Trump is president, the nation is at risk. Impeach. https://t.co/Kckd9XcE26 — PolitiTweet.org

Handling a Senate trial is a grave responsibility. But I know @RepRaskin, @RepDianaDeGette, @davidcicilline @JoaquinCastrotx, @RepSwalwell, @RepTedLieu, @StaceyPlaskett, @RepJoeNeguse and @RepDean will make the case.   This president must be held accountable and removed. — PolitiTweet.org

Incitement of insurrection is an impeachable offense. No one contests that. Either we uphold our oath to protect the constitution, or we do not. Either we safeguard our democracy, or we do not. It’s really that simple. Trump must be impeached. Now. I know where I stand. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

The 25th Amendment should be invoked, but if the Vice President refuses to do his duty, Congress will move with urgency to do ours. Trump incited a violent insurrection, and for that he must be impeached. Every day this man is in office, he is a grave danger to the nation. https://t.co/Ugq5Y7dWKF — PolitiTweet.org
