Nancy Pelosi took advantage of the 5 Republicans in coronavirus self-quarantine to push a partisan Christmas list chocked full of far-left goodies for unions, green groups, and other liberal allies. Republicans are rightly calling Dems out on this. 1/ pjmedia.com/trending/despi…
.@senatemajldr slammed Democrats for deciding their "eleventh-hour demands" are "more important than Americans’ paychecks and the personal safety of doctors and nurses." 2/ pjmedia.com/trending/dems-…
"Don’t treat this bill like a partisan Christmas list," @tedcruz declared. "What the hell do the emissions standards on airplanes have to do with thousands of people dying and millions of people out of work in the coronavirus epidemic?!" 3/ pjmedia.com/trending/dems-…
"We've got families that are suffering," @BenSasse declared. "We've got small businesses ... closing. We have doctors fighting to prevent their hospitals from being overwhelmed. And what does Speaker Pelosi try to do? She's trying to take hostages about her dream legislation. 4/
"Families & businesses need help now to survive the China virus pandemic," @SenTomCotton declared. "But @SpeakerPelosi walked away from negotiations to write her own bill, full of absurd provisions completely unrelated to the crisis at hand." 5/ pjmedia.com/trending/dems-…
"Democrats can’t claim to be the party of workers when they advocate for policies that make businesses fail. Businesses employ workers. You can’t have one without the other," @DanCrenshawTX warned. 6/ pjmedia.com/trending/dems-…
My favorite quote comes from @SteveScalise: "Throw this bill in the trash that Pelosi filed and get back to work for the American people that are literally facing losing everything if this game goes on longer." Amen! 7/7 pjmedia.com/trending/dems-…
One more thing: Trump wants to #ReopenAmerica by Easter, a great goal and a good thing to hope for, but we obviously need to see how far along our health care response to coronavirus is before making that decision. pjmedia.com/trending/great…

Can we please stop lying around here? Here's the grand jury indictment laying out why Don Lemon was charged.
At the pre-op briefing Chauntyll Louisa Allen briefed Lemon and the other conspirators about where and what they were doing.
On camera, Nekima Armstrong tells Lemon—who knows the location but is hiding it from his audience—that they're going to "disrupt business as usual" at what we later learned was Cities Church.
When did the disruption start? As the pastor was beginning his sermon.
The agitators "oppressed, threatened, and intimidated the Church's congregants and pastors by physically occupying most of the main aisle and rows of chairs near the front of the Church, engaging in menacing and threatening behavior (for some) chanting and yelling loudly at the pastor and congregants, and/or physically obstructing them as they attempted to exit and/or move about within the church."
🧵2/7
In this indictment, we learn that it was William Kelly ("DaWoke Farmer") who shouted at a little kid, "Do you know your parents are Nazis? They're going to burn in hell."
When Don Lemon observed others leaving the service, he described people as "frightened," "scared," and "crying," which he said was understandable because the experience was "traumatic and uncomfortable," which he said was the purpose of the invasion.
Again Lemon said "the whole point of [the operation] is to disrupt."
The invasion of Cities Church was even worse than we thought.
Agitators blocked stairs so "parents were unable to get to their children" at Sunday School.😡
One told a kid, "Do you know your parents are Nazis, they're going to burn in hell?"

William Kelly, "DaWoke Farmer," shouted, "This ain't God's house. This is the house of the devil."
🧵2/7
About 50 members of the congregation were "stuck" towards the front of the church. Not only did the agitators take over the service, but they "made it nearly impossible for parishioners to get out and leave."
The Congressional Black Caucus and 270 left-leaning groups tried to block me from testifying in Congress. Their rationale was extremely hypocritical and, dare I say, Orwellian.
CBC Chair @RepYvetteClarke said the hearing—which focused on my research on the SPLC—was a "deliberate effort to intimidate and discredit an institution that has spent decades defending civil rights, exposing hate, and advancing opportunity for all Americans."
🧵2/12
She said the hearing "undermines the very civil institutions that give everyday people voice, protection, and power."
So, she's endorsing the SPLC's "hate" accusations and failing to admit that the SPLC itself has undermined "civil institutions." More on that later.
Here's @RepCohen's press release touting that he questioned the "smear" that the SPLC is anti-Christian, suggesting that he stood up against supposedly false claims.
But I know what really happened, because I was the witness.
🧵1/7
Cohen did mention that some Christians support the SPLC. I don't disagree. It seems he thought I wouldn't be able to defend my assertion that the SPLC is anti-Christian, however.
I came ready to defend the claim.
🧵2/7
Here's theclip. Thanks to @chiproytx for allowing Cohen's questions to go over the 5 min in the @JudiciaryGOP hearing.
I noted that the SPLC, when branding @RuthInstitute a "hate group," cited as evidence @DrJrobackmorse's quoting the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Gov-elect Abigail Spanberger apparently doesn’t consider it disqualifying for someone to endorse an activist group that considers the official teaching of your faith “hateful.”
The whistleblower account @Minnesota_DHS went viral after accusing Tim Walz of retaliation against whistleblowers amid the massive fraud scandals. X suspended the account. Conservatives think this was more retaliation.
“Certainly it was retaliation, the question is by whom?” @billglahn with @MNThinkTank told me.
He said the X account had been feeding him information only insiders would know.
🧵2/8
State Rep. @KRobbinsMN suggested "someone went to X and said, 'They're not who they say they are,' which just is not true." Robbins told me that she has met in person with the whistleblowers behind the account.
