Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

Jeffries: We have an American president behaving like an organized crime boss, stealing taxpayer dollars in real-time in front of everyone in plain sight. And Republicans have nothing to say about the emerging crime scene at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue.

ICE agents greeted by a hero on arrival in New York this evening.

Make statues of this.

A woman in what looks like business attire with a black handbag over her shoulder stands in front of an armed vehicle flipping the bird with both hands. Unfortunately a friend sent this to me, I don’t know who the hero woman is or the photographer

The WH steals people’s property constantly and never asks permission. Another example of Trump acting like a king.

The regime wants you to focus on their accounts & narrative, by engaging directly with them you are following their lead. They need the attention you give their trolling / posts to distract you from their actions.

Block them and double down on their actions, the Epstein files, and crimes. #3E

Rep. Mike Rogers: "The group that manages our nuclear stockpile -- the carryover funding they've been using is about to run out. They will have to layoff 80% of their employees. These are not employees that you want to go home."

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

The news prompted gun rights activists to wonder if the Trump administration is preparing to stab them in the back. Suddenly, the administration that campaigned on absolute Second Amendment loyalty is asking for membership rosters.
