🔥@BenSasse on his vote: Trump LIED that he ‘won the election by a landslide.’ He lied about widespread voter fraud...despite losing 60 straight court challenges...He tried to intimidate @GaSecofState to 'find votes' and overturn that state’s election.
Sasse: “(Trump) repeated these lies when summoning his crowd—parts of which were widely known to be VIOLENT—to Capitol Hill to intimidate Pence and Congress...endangering the life of the VP and bringing us dangerously close to a bloody constitutional crisis.”
Sasse: “If Congress cannot forcefully respond to an intimidation attack on Article I instigated by the head of Article II(Trump), our constitutional balance will be permanently tilted. A weak and timid Congress will increasingly submit to an emboldened and empowered presidency.💥
Sasse: “I promised I’d always vote my conscience even if it was against the partisan stream...I promised to speak out when a POTUS exceeds his/her powers. I cannot go back on my word...simply because it is politically convenient. I must vote to CONVICT."
🚨BREAKING: the Senate voted to CALL WITNESSES delaying a verdict in Trump’s #ImpeachmentTrial. Democrats will call @GOP Rep @HerreraBeutler as a witness and #subpoena her notes after she was told Trump sided with the mob as rioters attacked the Capitol.
Kevin McCarthy told @HerreraBeutler that the Trump had said during a phone call that the #insurrectionists were more upset about the election than McCarthy was.🙄
GOP Rep @HerreraBeutler has pleaded with those who were at the WH with Trump that day, or former VP Mike Pence, to come forward and share eyewitness accounts and details about what they saw and heard.🧐
🚨BREAKING: Fulton County #Georgia DA Fani Willis is probing @LindseyGrahamSC’s phone call with @GaSecofState Raffensperger as part of a CRIMINAL investigation into Trump’s alleged CRIMINAL attempt to flip the election results.
🔥During their conversation, Graham asked @GaSecofState whether he had the power to toss out all #MailInBallots in certain counties, Raffensperger told @washingtonpost. He said Graham asked him to improperly find a way to set aside legally cast ballots.
‼️Graham is sitting in judgment on Trump on a charge that cites Trump’s call to Raffensperger, while Graham HIMSELF is a person of interest in a CRIMINAL investigation of his own call to Raffensperger.
‼️SCOTUS’ #CitizensUnited ruling allows UNLIMITED, ANONYMOUS money to support political campaigns—aka #corruption—so we don't know all who bankrolled the rally that led to the deadly #TrumpInsurrection.
The really bad part about DARK MONEY: *no one* other than those directly involved with funneling the dirty money into campaigns knows who’s bankrolling.
It could be a US billionaire...or a foreign national. Once the $$ are here in the US, it’s easy to funnel $$ into politics.🤬
🚨BREAKING: @WHO team is investigating cases of ~90 people hospitalized with #COVID19-like symptoms in central #China in October 2019—2 months BEFORE Beijing acknowledged the 1st #coronavirus infections in #Wuhan in late 2019.
#China conducted #coronavirus antibody tests on about 2/3 of those patients in the past few months, and said they found no antibodies. But antibodies could have waned to undetectable levels during the year-plus delay.🙄
The WHO team urged #China to conduct wider tests on blood samples collected in autumn 2019 & held in blood banks around Hubei—#Wuhan’s province—to find when the #coronavirus 1st circulated. Chinese authorities said they hadn’t yet obtained necessary permissions to test samples.🙄
🚨AWESOME: Prosecutors in #Georgia have launched a CRIMINAL investigation into Trump’s attempts to overturn election results, including a phone call to @GaSecofState Raffensperger in which Trump pressured him to “find” enough votes to flip the results. nytimes.com/2021/02/10/us/…
Fani Willis—the Democratic prosecutor in Fulton County—sent a letter to numerous GA state officials, including Raffensperger—asking them to preserve documents related to Trump’s call. The letter **explicitly stated that the request was part of a CRIMINAL investigation**.💥
The inquiry makes #Georgia the 2nd state after New York where Trump faces a CRIMINAL investigation. And it lies in a jurisdiction where potential jurors are unlikely to be hospitable to Trump—Fulton County encompasses most of Atlanta and overwhelmingly supported @POTUS Biden.😎
‼️Video from Parler shows Roger Stone with #Seditionist Proud Boys leaders Enrique Tarrio & Ethan Nordean (aka Rufio Panman)—who allegedly helped plan the Capitol attack—the night before the Dec 12 “Stop The Steal” rally in DC.
ARREST EVERY TRAITOR NOW.🤬
In the video, InfoWars’ Owen Shroyer is standing next to Tarrio & hands Stone the bullhorn. Stone: “We will fight to the bitter end for an honest count of the 2020 election. Never give up, never quit, never surrender, and fight for America!”
Tarrio joins Stone and Nordean. Tarrio and Stone engage in an inaudible dialogue as Shroyer continues to rouse the crowd. “We got stabbed in the back by the SCOTUS tonight. This was never their revolution. This is our revolution!”🤬
