1/x Really disturbing text I just received from our pastor @GreggMatte He said I could share:
“Hey guys,
I’m back from DC.
Thought you would be interested ...
Getting from the White House to my hotel room at the JW Marriott last night was quite a feat. Protesters everywhere.”
2/x “They had us exit to the west and Uber had to drop me and a few other people three blocks away from the hotel. Thankfully Kelly was not with me. As we walked up to the JW Marriott (across from the Willard) a group of about 50 to 100 protesters were walking up...”
3/x “... the other side of the circle drive at the hotel. The lead one on a bike looked me in the eye and said ‘you better run.’ With a lot of expletives. Truly a scary experience for me. I was one of the last people that went into the Hotel...”
4/4 “...before the police made a barricade in front of the door with their bikes and bodies. Guardian angels.
We need to be praying for DC and our country.”

1/x By threatening to not hold a trial for Mayorkas's impeachment, Chuck Schumer is breaking Senate precedent.
There have been 21 impeachments sent to the Senate. The Senate held a full trial for 17 of these impeachments.
2/x Of the impeachments that did not receive a trial, two were mooted because the person resigned, one was dismissed for jurisdictional grounds, and the House withdrew the impeachment in the final one.
None of these exceptions apply to Mayorkas, so the trial should proceed.
3/x The left is lying and arguing that Chuck Schumer's egregious threat does not break precedent. Here are the facts showing why that is not true:
Here's Joe Biden endorsing the Women’s Health Protection Act, legislation that would have codified abortion on demand up until birth in all 50 states. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
1/x Joe Biden and Biden administration officials are pathologically obsessed with undermining Israel. Since day one of their administration, they have launched campaigns against our Israeli allies that are granular, whole of government, and done in secret.
2/x This new boycott of Israeli Jews is yet another example. The State Department is telling the entire U.S. government not to cooperate with Jews in Judea and Samaria. And, of course, it was sent to Congress in secret and only revealed because reporters found out.
3/x The Biden administration defends funding scientific research in Wuhan with the Chinese Communist Party, but they’re discriminating against and banning cooperation with Jews based on where they live.
Our economy is now on the edge of what would be a fiscal catastrophe all because of the Biden administration’s ineptitude.
After doing next to nothing to avoid a rail strike, President Biden assured the American people that this matter was settled. That was a brazen lie. 1/x
Now, this admin expects Congress to step into the dispute & pick winners & losers.
As a matter of principle, I don’t support gov intervention to decide terms of employment. We shld extend the cooling-off period, as Congress has done b4, & send both parties back to the table. 2/x
For that reason, I was proud to cosponsor Senator Sullivan’s amendment to extend the cooling-off period and allow the negotiations to continue in order to reach a resolution that addresses the needs of both sides. 3/x
Texas Bar 'examined the Grievance and determined that the information alleged does not demonstrate Professional Misconduct or a Disability. Pursuant to the Texas Rules of Disciplinary Procedure, this matter has therefore been classified as an Inquiry and has been dismissed.' 2/x
Translation: The Texas Bar found the complaint to be baseless. 3/x
