Putin's war against Ukraine has caused a global food crisis. Some will starve, and many more will feel the financial pain. He can never be allowed to do this again, which is why we must continue to support Ukraine until they are triumphant. — PolitiTweet.org

We may have the biggest bipartisan gun violence bill in decades, a deal that can protect life & maintain rights for responsible gun owners. Complaining about what isn't in the deal misses the point. Don't lament the length of the step. Celebrate that we have finally begun to walk — PolitiTweet.org

They are a reminder that democracy is fragile and has always been fragile. It will continue to be fragile, especially if we don't address the root causes that led to the attempted insurrection. (3/3) — PolitiTweet.org

The 1/6 Hearings may not change anyone's mind. The people who still believe the big lie are not going to see the light after seeing testimony from Ivanka Trump & Bill Barr. But these hearings matter for a different reason. (2/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

We cannot lose our sense of shock, our sense of alarm, of dismay. We cannot normalize what should not be normal. These hearings remind us that what happened on 1/6 was unnatural, unpatriotic, and un-American. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

But the GOP can't build sustainable majorities if our candidates are praising Hitler on the radio, getting arrested by the FBI for participating in the insurrection or being evaluated solely on their loyalty to the guy who lost the last election. — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

The Dems' midterm campaign message is essentially "Sure, we've accomplished nothing, but we're not Trump!" It's no wonder they're about to be swept out of their majorities. — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

17 months later, January 6th was still an insurrection. These hearings shouldn't be about debating that, but about getting to the truth of who was responsible, holding them accountable, and making sure it never happens again. #January6thCommitteeHearings — PolitiTweet.org

A soft-on-crime progressive DA loses an election because his policies caused crime to go up in San Francisco. There are only 33,329 registered Republicans in San Fran and 74,334 people voted him out. https://t.co/WTsk0nxSnu — PolitiTweet.org

I know President Lopez Obrador doesn’t like to travel nor attend big conferences, but the fact that the Biden Admin is incapable of getting the Pres. of Mexico on a 4-hour flight to LA doesn’t bode well for border security or N. American competitiveness as a hedge against China. — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

Reasonable, lifesaving solutions have little to no impact on sale, access, or possession of guns for responsible gun owners. (6/6) — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

Background checks & making the age to purchase a semi-automatic weapon the same as purchasing a handgun is not taking anybody’s guns away. It’s about preventing guns from getting into the hands of monsters. (5/6) — PolitiTweet.org

- such as focus on mental health, strengthen families & communities, prevent crime, reduce toxic information, harden soft targets, ensure actual criminals can’t access weapons, and enforce existing laws. (4/6) — PolitiTweet.org

Since 2009 we've lost more lives to mass shootings than we’ve had hostile deaths in Afghanistan. To fix this, we need to do MANY things as well - (3/6) — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

After 9/11, we made it improbable that it would happen again by implementing MANY different types of solutions - revamping airport security, neutralizing Al Qaeda, improving Federal agency coordination, etc. (2/6) — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

What does it say about us as a nation that a brave, traumatized, 11-year-old girl who soaked herself in another child's blood to prevent her own murder had to testify before Congress to explain to our lawmakers that we are dealing with a national emergency? (1/6) — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

Unfortunately, this problem is not going away. This is the never-ending loop that has to be addressed from multiple angles. Someone somewhere is planning another attack. This is a national emergency. https://t.co/CoFCRvrmlg — PolitiTweet.org

I wish Darvin Ham success with the @Lakers, except when they play the @Spurs. Long story, but he supplied me with size 14 basketball shoes when I was in high school. Big feet gotta stick together. — PolitiTweet.org

The momentum to prevent future mass shootings has to start somewhere. https://t.co/DZsOqX2KsG — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

The research that @theviolencepro has done needs to be looked at in order to combat these mass shootings. We can't act like there's a single solution. We have to put in the staggering amount of work needed to address every factor that leads to these tragedies. https://t.co/E9RP3PM540 — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

In the last week, Iran has enriched enough uranium to make a nuke, committed literal piracy, & arrested its own people for protesting the deaths of their loved ones. Let’s not repeat our Russia mistake - you can't reset relations with a rogue regime. https://t.co/U3YRDsu645 — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

We must identify and engage potential mass murderers before they pick up a gun, prevent wannabe mass murderers (not law-abiding citizens) from getting guns, and be prepared to save as many lives as possible if we fail in doing either of these two things. — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

Let's start from a place of agreeing that our supermarkets, schools, and hospitals becoming battlefields is a national emergency. If we can agree that this is an unacceptable reality, then failure to act is no longer a sane option. — PolitiTweet.org

Will Hurd @WillHurd

We are not helpless, and if those we've elected to address our country’s toughest challenges think nothing can be done beyond thoughts and prayers or complaining about the filibuster, then it’s time they find a new career. Mass shootings don’t have to be a fact of life. — PolitiTweet.org
