China is building a digital authoritarian regime before our very eyes. The situation in Xinjiang province is a human rights crisis—the government monitors citizens' every move and over a million people are detained in "political education" camps. Here's what you need to know: — PolitiTweet.org

While Trump stonewalls the public from learning the truth about his obstruction of justice, Trump and Barr conspire to weaponize law enforcement and classified information against their political enemies. The coverup has entered a new and dangerous phase. This is un-American. — PolitiTweet.org

China is utilizing and exporting cutting-edge mass-surveillance technologies, eroding privacy norms and civil liberties. It's time to pay attention to the threat posed by China's digital authoritarianism: https://t.co/hTrqHVB24k — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: For the second time this week, a federal judge just ruled in favor of the House and against President Trump, who sued to stop Deutsche Bank from complying with our subpoena. Two different judges, same conclusion: Trump’s stonewalling is without merit. — PolitiTweet.org

IRS lawyers correctly determined that they are required by law to turn over the President’s tax returns to Congress, but political appointees at Treasury claim they never got the memo. I wonder why. More evidence of lawlessness by the Trump Administration. — PolitiTweet.org

As @SpeakerPelosi has said, the House is going to hold the President accountable. We’re also going to work on healthcare, infrastructure, and more. The President’s temper tantrum just shows how terrified he is of the former, and how little he cares about the latter. — PolitiTweet.org

DOJ has accepted our offer, and will begin turning over to the Committee twelve categories of counterintelligence and foreign intelligence materials beginning this week. Our subpoena will remain in effect, and be enforced should DOJ fail to comply with the full document request. — PolitiTweet.org

Presidents have used the pardon power to rectify injustices. For Trump, it’s just a way to reward those who praise him or to protect himself. In the interests of our democracy, Congress should deter the abuse of pardons, so they aren’t used to subvert the justice system. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump just ordered Don McGahn not to testify before the American people. Duplicitous as ever, the White House says Dems don’t get a do-over, ignoring the fact the Mueller report contemplated Congress picking up where he left off. The cover-up continues. And we will fight it. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump now wants $4.5 billion to address the crisis at our southern border. There is in fact a crisis- a humanitarian one of Trump's own making, through policies like cutting aid to the very countries people are fleeing. Walls and family separation policies aren’t the answer. https://t.co/69tUo702ZD — PolitiTweet.org

Trump has taken a series of steps to deliberately escalate tensions with Iran. The result is all too predictable - it has. That’s not an intelligence problem, it’s a policy problem. Trump must stop this dangerous game, and rein in advisors who seem hell bent on starting a war. https://t.co/5W9kSDgXHL — PolitiTweet.org

The Treasury Secretary has refused to turn over Trump’s tax returns on the advice of — Bill Barr. Or to put it another way — On the advice of Donald Trump, Since Barr does whatever he wants. Or to put it another way still — Trump got his Roy Cohn. — PolitiTweet.org

Iran is much more than an intelligence issue. We must also closely scrutinize the Administration’s many highly escalatory actions over the past year, such as reneging on the nuclear deal. If the risk of conflict with Iran has increased, this was an all too predictable outcome. https://t.co/NWDiGVhZYJ — PolitiTweet.org

Big News: the House just passed the #EqualityAct. Today, millions of LBGTQ Americans can face discrimination when they interview for a job, rent an apartment, apply for a loan, and more. We can’t accept that. I voted YES to end this discrimination. The Senate must act. — PolitiTweet.org

Barr says Trump’s campaign was “spied” upon. Trump claims treason. Both are incendiary. Neither is true. Barr suggests a finger was put on the scale to affect the election. But the Trump probe was kept secret; the Clinton one wasn’t. It’s the Trumpification of the DOJ. — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump will stonewall every request for oversight, while blaming Democrats for the delay. We will press on, because if we don’t, Trump will escape scrutiny and we won’t be able to hold future presidents accountable for abuse of power, malfeasance or corruption. https://t.co/pBq10YEwfJ — PolitiTweet.org

Trump thinks it’s perfectly ok to ask the Attorney General to investigate one of his political rivals. Barr has proven to be so partisan, so without integrity, he just might do it.

Today, Giuliani admitted to seeking political help from a foreign power. Again. His defense: “We’re not meddling in an election, we’re meddling in an investigation ... Somebody could say it’s improper. “ Yes. It is. Immoral, unethical, unpatriotic and, now, standard procedure. — PolitiTweet.org

Iran is a malign actor and a threat we must contain. But the Administration has chosen to escalate matters, alienating our allies, increasing the chances Iran returns to nuclear enrichment, and risking armed conflict. That makes a bad problem far worse. https://t.co/xHm8iCUzdi — PolitiTweet.org

The House Judiciary Committee just voted to hold Attorney General Bill Barr in contempt. Trump and those who blindly serve him — like Barr — must be made to comply with our requests for information. In absence of vigorous oversight, corruption will continue to flourish. — PolitiTweet.org

Iran is a dangerously malevolent actor, and we must contain the threat it presents. But the Administration has chosen to escalate tensions with Iran and increase the likelihood of enrichment and armed conflict, while alienating our allies.
