I’m tired of my Republican colleagues telling me in private how they feel about this terrible bill… it’s time to vote like it.

Trump & co. are burning up American soft power at an incredible rate. Soft power is real power, that we have used effectively since WWII. Our country is far weaker today than it was little more than a month ago.
We had friends & allies around the world based on alliances & relationships that were built over many decades.
In one month, Trump has torched them all.
Now our friends are Putin, Orban, the crypto scammer in Argentina, and the guy in El Salvador offering us mercenary prisons.

Not a great time for citizens who have chosen to serve their country by working in government, when the current leaders have nothing but contempt for your very existence.
I have an idea, run for office against a Republican who is enabling it - which is all of them.

Sen Collins, co-author of the law creating the DNI position which requires nominees to have “extensive national security experience,” doesn’t address Gabbard’s lack of that experience.

President Trump's lawless federal grant freeze attacks critical public services that we all depend on.
Their assault on civil society now threatens fire safety, school lunches, disaster relief, cancer research, law enforcement and more.
We will fight to resolve this constitutional crisis.

My firm is willing to represent pro bono those fired in this unlawful and vindictive purge. These dedicated civil servants were performing their jobs and upholding the rule of law.
BREAKING on @MSNBC:
The Justice Department is firing more than a dozen officials who worked on Special Counsel Jack Smith's team.
Acting Attorney General James McHenry claims the officials could not be trusted in "faithfully implementing the president's agenda."
