Bending disgracefully to the will of Donald Trump, Republicans yesterday revived their absurd effort to censure @repadamschiff. What can you say about a party that embraces the Big Lie, insurrection and George Santos but wants to censure Adam Schiff?
Blaming the victim has become standard practice for the Trump-MAGA GOP, whether we’re talking about sexual abuse, insurrectionary violence or disenfranchisement. Their kick-down bullying agenda is dangerous and will be rejected by America.
Today I #WearOrange to honor the countless American lives lost to gun violence. On this National Gun Violence Awareness Day, I’m sending love and solidarity to families grieving across America and continuing the fight in Congress for commonsense solutions.
