Someone just figured out that threatening a member of Congress with murder is a prosecutable crime, even under the recent Supreme Court immunity decision.

It’s quaint, I know, but the President of the United States calling for the hanging of Democratic service members for saying that no one should follow an illegal order should inspire a conversation about the 25th Amendment.

Trump's rants against Democrats have inspired everything from death threats and pipe bombs to the January 6th assault on the Capitol.

This is a time to take him literally and seriously.
Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."

Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

When a sitting president calls for death to lawmakers, it’s not a warning sign, it’s the emergency siren. He is talking like a dictator and telling you exactly how he plans to use his power.

This is how democracies fall and how dictatorships begin.

Trump calling for members of Congress to be hanged is not great, in my humble opinion.

My legal team will be in federal court in North Carolina today fighting against the state's unconstitutional redrawn congressional map. Before you listen to those in the GOP who say we can't win, ask Texas how that worked out for them.

He already sent a lynch mob to chase Congress out of the Capitol and it was a skin-of-their-teeth miracle they didn't manage to get their hands on any of them.

It's a big deal, but shouldn't be framed as shockingly new. It is his longtime position that murdering his political opponents is good.

Rep. Khanna: Now it is a criminal offense for any career official at the Justice Department or the FBI not to release these files. It's a contempt of Congress. It's no longer, 'we just don't feel like doing it now.' You're violating federal law, and that's something very serious.

Any President who calls for the opposition party to be hanged should be immediately impeached and removed from office.

This is one instance in which I'd love to see history repeating.
Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Just want to point out that it is a crime to threaten to murder a Congressperson-- and a crime that absolutely falls outside the purview of any presidential immunity granted by the Supreme Court consistent with presidential authority.

Full stop, a crime and an impeachable offense.

WOW. There is a war underway between the GOP House and the GOP Senate right now.

GOP senators investigated after 1/6 will not get their payouts, by UNANIMOUS vote of the House.
House unanimously rebukes Thune’s controversial subpoena measure
House unanimously rebukes Thune’s controversial subpoena measure
The House unanimously voted 426-0 Wednesday night to claw back language in last week’s government funding bill that could award some GOP senators hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages for having their phone records unknowingly obtained by former special counsel Jack Smith. The language, which was quietly slipped into the shutdown-ending package last week by Senate Majority Leader John Thune, drove bipartisan outrage in the House. Even outspoken critics of Smith — including House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), who is leading an investigation into the Biden-era probe — supported the effort to repeal a politically toxic measure that was quickly branded as a taxpayer-funded windfall for a select few. “That policy, in my opinion — in the opinion I think of all the members of this institution — is unacceptable,” said House Administration Committee chair Bryan Steil (R-Wis.), during floor debate. “No one should be able to enrich themselves because the federal government wronged them, no elected official should be able to.” The provision would allow senators to sue the federal government for $500,000 or more if their electronic data was subpoenaed without proper notification. But there are concerns over the language’s retroactivity — which would extend protections to at least eight Republican senators whose records were obtained as part of Smith’s investigation into Donald Trump’s attempts to subvert the 2020 election results. There are no guarantees the bill to repeal the language will get a vote in the Senate. The revelations that Smith obtained lawmakers’ private data has enraged Republican senators, who argue his probe amounted to a politicization of the Justice Department. But Smith’s subpoena was narrowly tailored for data around the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, and investigators did not receive the contents of their calls. Several GOP lawmakers whose phone data was subpoenaed have distanced themselves from the provision. But it may be too late. Thune hasn’t shown any interest in bringing the bill to the Senate floor, even amid the pushback from his members over his quiet decision to include it in the funding package. Thune told reporters Wednesday that additional conversations are necessary to reach a consensus about how to change the provision. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who has indicated he intends to sue for a significant monetary reward, has proposed expanding who can sue under the legislative language.

Commentators who are telling you that Bondi can just classify the files or withhold everything due to an investigation haven’t read the bill.

Begging people to watch my line by line breakdown of the bill so people understand the limitations.

Keep in mind that there is a lot of illegitimate traffic here and elsewhere when we’ve had a big win.

Today the Epstein Files Transparency Act passed the Senate unanimously and the House with but one down vote.

Texas maps also got thrown out.

Don’t fall for the naysaying.

Very important for people to read this portion of the Epstein Files Transparency Act so you understand 1) why Mike Johnson was so upset today, and 2) what is NOT permitted to be redacted by the DOJ.
