It’s like overnight all the Republicans who talked for six years nonstop about the the FBI investigation of Hillary Clinton just magically erased it from their memory so they could create this new fictional world in which only Republicans get investigated by the FBI.

Hey @SenTomCotton - heard you on @hughhewitt criticizing the Jan 6 hearings. Then you said the strangest thing; you admitted you hadn’t watched any of them. Here’s a tip: actually watching them before rendering judgment is more consistent with “Anglo-American jurisprudence.”

Pence’s former chief of staff, Marc Short, appeared before a Jan. 6 grand jury under subpoena. He’s one of the latest and most significant witnesses to face grand jury questions related to the Capitol attack. politico.com/news/2022/07/25…

As we heard yesterday, WH counsel Pat Cippollone had significant concerns re. Trump’s Jan 6 activities. It’s time for Mr. Cippollone to testify on the record. Any concerns he has about the institutional interests of his prior office are outweighed by the need for his testimony.

We cannot let those who attacked our Capitol on January 6—and those who urged them on—to get away with impunity. That's what happens in dictatorships and authoritarian regimes.

BREAKING: @SenatorCollins says the court’s decision goes against “what Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh said in their testimony and their meetings with me.” Says she’s working on legislation to codify abortion rights from Roe and other cases.

New: AG Merrick Garland says SCOTUS overturning Roe v Wade has eliminated a fundamental right — adds “the FDA has approved the use of the medication Mifepristone. States may not ban Mifepristone based on disagreement with the FDA’s expert judgment about its safety and efficacy.”

.@Rjaellis is a public radio reporter. She was shot by a federal officer while covering last night’s protests in Portland for @OPB. This was hours after a federal judge issued an order aimed at protecting journalists and legal observers. Join me in standing with journalists.
Replying to @Rjaellis
Feds approaching and just got shot in hand trying to film. Don’t think that TRO worked
