After 25 yrs w/the GOP,I’m done.
As a principled conservative&more importantly,American,I can no longer associate w/a GOP that’s fully embraced the malignancy of Trumpism.
The fight continues b/c here,right still matters🇺🇸

1st time in my life, I proudly cast a ballot for a Democratic POTUS
@JoeBiden
Lincoln said “if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.”
Character, honesty, decency, democracy are on the ballot 🇺🇸
I pray our better angels prevail!

So, a dear friend refuses to get the vaccine. She says she “respects my decision not to be around unvaccinated people” & asks that I respect her decision not to get vaccinated🤦🏽♀️
I’m sorry but I can’t respect such a selfish decision that impacts others besides her.
Am I wrong?
"I don't need invitations by the state, state mayors, or state governors to do our job. We're going to do that, whether they like us there or not.” — acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf

Very thankful everyone was ok today. It could’ve easily been a different result.
Been on a long flight today. But members of the wonderful flight crew and several passengers have come up to me to pass on some very kind words for the good people at CNN. This means so much. If you see some of my colleagues out today, say something nice to them. Thank you!
Guess who’s NOT in quarantine?
@JoeBiden
Why?
Because he’s behaved like a responsible adult & competent leader by leading by example & following health experts.
How?
By wearing a 😷 😷😷 & encouraging others to follow guidelines.
#COVID19
Democrats & the WH, for the love of everything politically Holy, do NOT equivocate on Biden’s pro democracy speech.
Double, triple down on his hard truths about the threats MAGA presents to our republic.
Make the GOP defend their Trumpist illiberalism.
Offense wins elections.
Our great National Guard Troops who took care of the area around the White House could hardly believe how easy it was. “A walk in the park”, one said. The protesters, agitators, anarchists (ANTIFA), and others, were handled VERY easily by the Guard, D.C. Police, & S.S. GREAT JOB!
It’s clear to me, as I’m reading the
#MaryTrump
book, that Trump’s so damaged from his emotionally abusive father, that his insecurities are so overwhelming he can’t stand anyone being smarter or more accomplished. It literally crushes his little boy id. So he lashes out
#Fauci
Throwback to 5 years ago when Tony Fauci, at 74 yo, was suiting up to treat an Ebola patient himself because he "wanted to show his staff that he wouldn't ask them to do anything he wouldn't do himself". This is what leadership looks like.
Hey
@nytimes
Where's your headline about Trump abandoning NATO and encouraging Russia to attack our allies in Europe?
"In fact I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want..."
Openly encouraging our enemy to attack our allies gets a shrug...
But Biden is old so..
Trump: One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, Well, sir, if we don't pay and were attacked by Russia, will you protect us? I said.. No I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.
As tears stream down my face, AGAIN, I can't even express how breathtaking the finale to today's
#Inauguration
just was.
Everything about today was pitch perfect.
Inspirational, hopeful, uplifting.
Truly spectacular.
What a way to usher in a new era.
#CelebrateAmerica
Anyone who thinks THIS GOP controlled Senate is ever passing the $2000 COVID checks doesn't understand how McConnell works.
Perdue & Loeffler need the populist Trumpers to help their re-election. The others have 2024 ambitions. Mitch will never let it reach 60. Pure politics.
Biden: Donald Trump's campaign is about him. Not America. Not you. Donald Trump's campaign is obsessed with the past, not the future. He's willing to sacrifice our democracy, put himself in power.

Violent chaos has broken out in dozens of American cities.
Over 100,000 dead Americans from an ongoing pandemic
40 million unemployed
Our country is in crisis and we have a inept psychopath for a president devoid of the leadership we need in this moment.
#VoteHimOut
Pete Buttigieg really went on Fox News and asked "why an evangelical Christian like Mike Pence wants to be on a ticket with a president caught with a porn star."
We’ve struck a nerve.
Trump spent more time rage tweeting

at 1am than he has reflecting on 70k dead Americans or the heroism of front line workers.
Our resolve to defeat this depraved charlatan is unwavering.
Join us.

Pres. Biden speaking directly to the Russian oligarchs "we're coming for your ill gotten gains."
This is not insignificant.
It's never been done before at this level.

This is a lie!!
The G-7 would NOt have been cost free to the US.
The security costs alone at Doral would be in the millions.
Omg this guy is such a child.
Doral in Miami would have been the best place to hold the G-7, and free, but too much heat from the Do Nothing Radical Left Democrats & their Partner, the Fake News Media! I’m surprised that they allow me to give up my $400,000 Plus Presidential Salary! We’ll find someplace else!
Donald Trump is a stochastic terrorist who hates our country.
He hates our Constitution
He hates our democratic norms, institutions & ideals.
He hates our diversity of thought & people.
Trump despises everything that actually makes America great.
Enough is enough.
Whatever is planned for January 6th, true friends of
@realDonaldTrump
want him to remember the country comes first. The presidency means more than any individual. Reject the crackpots. Exit with dignity and grace, for yourself, your family and the country you served so ably.
As my colleague
@stuartpstevens
says,we are under no obligation to tell both sides of a lie.
MSM media giving a paid platform to Trump enablers, propagandist & professional gaslighters like Ronna McDaniel further undermines our democratic institutions.
Stop rewarding liars.
What’s even more infuriating than Stefanik’s full on Baghdad Bob in lipstick level lying here, is Welker letting her get away with it.
No journalist should ever allow any of these MAGAs to call Jan 6th justly prosecuted thugs, “hostages.”
What an affront to our rule of law.
Kristen Welker: "Do you think it was a tragic day? Do you think that the people who stormed the Capitol should be held responsible to the full extent of the law?"
Elise Stefanik: "I have concerns about the treatment of January 6 hostages."
@SpeakerMcCarthy
Here we go again —
@SpeakerMcCarthy
swiftly drops to his knees in subservience to Trump at the expense of our democratic norms & institutions.
This is Orwellian level propaganda coming from the Speaker.
Dangerous & undemocratic rhetoric unworthy of the office.
It’s clear Trump would rather fangirl fawn over Putin than defend our troops from Putin’s murderous plots.
This is an unspeakable dereliction of duty for the “Commander in Chief.”
How can Trump lead America when he can’t even defend it?
He can’t.
#Biden2020

Putin paid a bounty to kill American soldiers.
@realDonaldTrump
knew about it but did nothing. How can Trump lead America when he can't even defend it?
I've got to say.
No matter the result of
#Election2020
, America has some serious soul searching to do.
This election shouldn't even be close.
Trump is a racist, misogynistic, ignorant, lunatic. Full stop.
230K dead Americans!
WAY too many voters are ok w/that.
🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
How much more evidence do we need that:
1.) Trump is a treasonous bastard
2.) Fox News is filled w/despicable hypocrite propagandists who don’t believe an f’n word they spew to their rubes.
3.)Trump & his army of lunatics, aided by the right wing media, threaten the republic.
Let’s not kid ourselves...
If the rabid, violent insurrectionists torturing cops, ransacking the Capitol looking to assassinate the VP & Speaker were BLACK, carrying Obama flags..🤔
Republicans would be tripping over themselves to convict, not making excuses.
#Hypocrites
Cassidy Hutchinson has more courage in her pinkie finger than the entire Republican Party combined.
It takes incredible resolve to do what she has done in service to her country over a personality cult.
Much respect from one Jersey girl to another. 👏🏽💪🏽
Imagine if Obama golfed while 145,000 Americans & counting were dying from a global pandemic.
Republicans would be screaming impeachment! Negligence! Indifference! Incompetence!
Yet, this sociopath doesn’t give a damn & the GOP golfs with him.
Vote them all OUT.
#Biden2020
“Everybody needs to calm the hell down here…

So, you’re just going to ignore this increasingly more frequent alarming Hitler-esque language from Trump…
But Biden is old so…
Well. Well. Well.
So it only took almost dying from COVID & a violent insurrection egged on by Trump for Chris Christie to find his political manhood. 🤨
"Trump is an ignorant, gelatinous fool. He is undisciplined. He is maniacal. He is a malignant narcissist. All the things that Jack Smith is not...Jack Smith is disciplined, he is focused, he's sharp. And guess what? He's in control." -

Pres. Biden's response to GOP voter suppression bills:
"It's unAmerican....it's sick.."
"This makes Jim Crow look like Jim Eagle..."
The President is exactly right.
Thankfully, we now have one who actually respects democracy.
I believe anyone that joins this caucus should have their committees stripped, and the Republican conference should expel them from conference participation. While we can’t prevent someone from calling themselves Republican, we can loudly say they don’t belong to us.

Biden goes to Mass weekly. He's a devout Catholic and a man of actual faith who doesn't pretend to be one like Trump.
These people are so dishonest.

- HUD Secretary Marcia Fudge
- EPA Administrator Michael Regan
- AG Merrick Garland
- DOW at 32,000+
- Americans getting vaccinated
I’m frankly tired of the pussy-footing around Trump’s lunacy & blatant attempt to destroy our republic.
Enough is enough.
He needs to be told unequivocally he’s delusional, a liar & he LOST.
The end. Call him out!
Imagine if Hillary or Obama did this?

Hunter Biden: "I'm here today to make sure the House committee's illegitimate investigations of my family do not proceed on distortions, manipulated evidence, & lies. I'm here today to acknowledge I have made mistakes in my life & wasted opportunities...for that I am responsible"
Update at 2:36pm ET:
An injured Capitol Police officer was just escorted by me.
Shortly after this video, several other officers with visible injuries to their faces walked by me.
“You want to get the hell out of here, they’ve taken over the Capitol,” one officer said.
Leaving the deposition of Devon Archer, Dan Goldman said Archer testified that when Hunter put his dad on the phone: “The witness was very consistent that none of those conversations had anything to do with any business dealings or transactions.”
This is good news. BUT...

dont come out strongly against this looting & rioting mayhem, they are handing a gift to Trump to successfully exploit with suburban voters they need to win in swing states.
Condemning that didn’t mean your against BLM.
I never want to hear again about how Trump "conservatism" is pro-life. You condone torture. You put kids in cages and orphan them. You ignore the poor. You let hundreds of thousands of Americans die in a pandemic. You won't say black lives matter. You kill cops.
2 House Republicans tell me they expect as of now that at least 140 Republican Members of the House will on Jan 6 object to and vote against the Electoral College results showing President-elect Biden won
This is a powerful statement by Hunter Biden.
And one that will resonate with millions of American who have family members who’ve struggled with addiction.
Bottom line, the GOP is demonizing Biden for being a loving father.
Hunter Biden: "Let me state as clearly as I can: My father was not financially involved in my business ... during my battle with addiction, my parents were there for me. They literally saved my life ... to suggest that is grounds for an impeachment inquiry is beyond the absurd"
Let’s add a few more names to that list:
Ted Cruz
Marco Rubio
Tom Cotton
Rand Paul
Ron Johnson
Lindsey Graham
...don’t even get me started on the jackasses in the House 🤨
From now on, if someone tells you they’re a fan of Josh Hawley and then tries to claim they’re a conservative—laugh at them and never take them seriously again.
Can you imagine what kind of spineless sycophant you must be that not even a crazed mob of terrorists calling for your hanging would get you to turn your back on the man who sent them?!? Whew. Pence is really something.
