Our fellow Americans cannot breathe. We need a rush to justice: https://t.co/C4Pe0VRMgi — PolitiTweet.org

Historic and exciting! American ingenuity at work. As Mission Control said: "Know that we're with you, have an amazing flight and enjoy those views of our beautiful planet." Congrats to @NASA and @SpaceX on the successful launch today! — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

We are one nation. One nation in need of justice and healing. I don’t expect this “president” to understand that. But I do expect him to stop stoking the fires of racism and constrain his apparent zeal for bloodshed. And if cannot, he can do the nation a service, and shut up. — PolitiTweet.org

Increased unemployment benefits and other aid have been a lifeline for millions of Americans. We must extend them past July. Because it’s clear the economic devastation from coronavirus won’t be over by summer. We're on a long road to economic recovery. But we will get there. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s what the Flynn transcripts show: Gen. Flynn secretly discussed the U.S. response to Russia’s brazen election interference, and lied about it to the FBI and Vice President. No wonder Trump and his allies are trying to re-write history, Because the facts are so damning. https://t.co/eNZMFlDSSa — PolitiTweet.org

“This shouldn’t be ‘normal’ in 2020 America. It can’t be ‘normal.’ If we want our children to grow up in a nation that lives up to its highest ideals, we can and must be better.” Thank you, Mr. President. — PolitiTweet.org

Mr. President, you spread blatant falsehoods about mail-in voting, and don’t like being called out on it. We get it. But here’s what really matters: 100,000 Americans have died from Coronavirus. If you don’t like Twitter, leave it. But spend your time trying to save lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Small businesses have been crying out for help. It's clear the Paycheck Protection Program needed critical changes. That's why I voted for a bipartisan fix to extend the loan forgiveness period and provide other flexibility. Congress must help small businesses stay afloat. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

We just crossed a terrible threshold: 100,000 Americans have died from COVID-19. 100,000 families are grieving. 100,000 communities in mourning. The fight against this virus, led by heroic health workers, is far from over. But today, let us pause to honor all those we lost. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

The video of George Floyd’s last moments is horrific. To treat anyone’s life with such disregard is monstrous. It is also a devastating reminder of other acts of violence against black Americans. Justice demands an independent, criminal investigation. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Restricting mail in voting during a pandemic is dangerous enough. But Trump's statements highlight another threat: He's laying the groundwork to delegitimize millions of votes this fall. And cast doubt on the result. This is what tin pot dictators do. Not U.S. Presidents. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

On this solemn Memorial Day, we are gathered in a different way than usual, but we gather all the same. To remember those who were lost in the service of our country and to thank all who wear the uniform. We are forever in your debt. We salute you. https://t.co/bZ9OySIyRR — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Over 90,000 Americans have died from COVID-19. Our economy is in a downward spiral to Great Depression-levels. Trump doesn't want the public to focus on his tragic failures. So, to paraphrase Steve Bannon, in order to distract: His people are flooding the zone with excrement. https://t.co/WxUJzt9hZd — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

It’s clear the Administration is selectively declassifying information for purely political purposes, an abuse of the classification system. We need to ensure a transparent and complete public record free of political manipulation. It’s time to declassify any Flynn transcripts: https://t.co/Uhfl166Fyh — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Voting by mail is safe and secure. Especially during a pandemic. But Trump continues to say – without evidence – it will lead to voter fraud and that it’s not “honest voting.” That’s. Simply. Not. True. RT if you support everyone being able to vote safely by mail in November. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Trump tried to coerce Ukraine into smearing Joe Biden to help his reelection. His scheme failed and he was impeached. Now Russian-linked figures in Ukraine are leaking edited recordings which show nothing new, but have the same purpose: Advancing Trump’s corrupt scheme. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Trump is threatening to withhold aid from states that help people vote by mail. Americans voting safely shouldn’t be a political issue. But as I’ve said: You can’t trust Donald Trump to do what’s right for the country. You can trust he will do what’s right for Donald Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Indifference in a time of pandemic: 30 million Americans have lost their jobs. The highest rate of unemployment since the Great Depression. Food lines stretching for miles. Families struggling to pay rent. Americans crying out for help. But @GOPLeader doesn’t see the need. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

The President rants about witch hunts and claims he wants the truth to come out. Yet Barr's Department of Justice has gone to the Supreme Court to avoid turning over Mueller’s grand jury records to Congress. To their dishonesty, you can add, hypocrisy. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

As President Obama said last night, “Doing what feels good, what’s convenient, what’s easy, that’s how little kids think.” Not how leaders act. Being a leader means doing what’s right, even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard. To bring people together, and save lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Another Inspector General fired by Trump in the dead of night. Another apparent act of retaliation and cover up. To shield a loyal cabinet secretary from oversight and accountability. And undermine the rule of law. This surfeit of corruption must end. And soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

I just voted YES on the Heroes Act to: ☑️Put more money in your pocket. ☑️Extend unemployment benefits. ☑️Provide hazard pay for front line workers. ☑️Increase help to small businesses. ☑️Support states, cities, and schools. And more. The American people need help. Now. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

In Lompoc federal prison not far from my district, 70% of inmates have COVID-19. But it is Paul Manafort, Trump crony, who gets to serve his sentence at home due to coronavirus. In Bill Barr’s Department, how can anyone have confidence that justice is being done? https://t.co/DNTtdfWi2n — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Mr. President, you ignored the threat of the virus, and now 80,000 Americans are dead. You want CDC to revise down the death totals, instead of taking action to save lives, And hope your repeated lies about Russia and Ukraine will distract. Your incompetence is killing us. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Trump, Fox & WSJ continue to lie about what Mueller found. That's their choice. But the evidence shows Trump’s campaign invited Russian help, made full use of it & covered it up. Just read Mueller's report: https://t.co/zODJLW8QQy Or our transcripts: https://t.co/NdE68xm0Lo — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

This pandemic has wrought unprecedented economic devastation. To recover, we need to think big and act boldly. That means keeping workers on payroll. Read my oped with @RepJayapal, @RepHaleyStevens and @RepCasten about why the Paycheck Guarantee Act is the right path forward: — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

A record-breaking 20.5 million jobs were lost in April. Unemployment has risen to 14.7%. But mass unemployment is a policy choice. It doesn't have to be this way. @RepJayapal and I broke down how her Paycheck Guarantee Act will keep people on payroll and businesses afloat: https://t.co/njR1DxkOqj — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Two thousand former federal prosecutors and DOJ alumni agree: In dismissing the Flynn case, Bill Barr “has once again assaulted the rule of law.” This former prosecutor agrees. Barr has turned the DOJ into a political weapon to be wielded by the President. He should resign. — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing a #HappyMothersDay to all the moms, including: Moms who are essential workers, moms who are juggling homeschooling their children while working remotely, moms who are social distancing far away from their kids, and more. And of course, Happy Mother's Day to my wife Eve! https://t.co/qi5EFyIT8Q — PolitiTweet.org
