Thank you Senator Durbin for your fight for fair courts.

Watch it. So powerful. Sen. Schiff: I want you to look at Capitol police & tell them you're proud that you raised money off people that assaulted their colleagues Patel: That's an abject lie. I've never accepted violence against law enforcement. Schiff: You didn't accept it, you glorified it!

Senator Klobuchar was on fire at today's Patel hearings. "Mr. Chairman, I am quoting his own words from September of 2024. It is his own words. It is not some conspiracy. It is what Mr. Patel actually said himself. Facts matter."
