    I have called for: —Complete disclosure of all documents —Subpoena Mark Judge —Postpone the vote Dr. Ford was credible & courageous. What message will we send to our daughters & sons, let alone sexual assault victims? The message I will send is this—I vote no. #RightSideofHistory

    Delete your account Jeff. This came out of a Republican controlled Senate committee on a strong bi-partisan vote. I know it’s tough for you to be on the right side of history when it comes to the Confederacy, but you should give it a try.
    .@DougJones vote to remove from all military facilities and installations the names of every soldier who fought for the Confederacy betrays the character and decency of every soldier who fought for the South in that bloody and monumental war...

    I’m a former US Attorney. If a judge/juror made a public statement that their mind was made up before all testimony is in, the trial would be prejudiced & I’d move for mistrial & have the judge removed. Mr. Leader, is this the message we want to send to victims of sexual assault?
    Mitch McConnell: “You’ve watched the fight. You’ve watched the tactics, But here’s what I want to tell you: In the very near future, Judge Kavanaugh will be on the United States Supreme Court… Don’t get rattled by all of this. We’re gonna plow right through it and do our job.”

    We don’t need an outside agitator like Steve Bannon carpetbagging in Alabama.

    Today, I have the solemn responsibility to uphold my oath of #ImpartialJustice Growing up in Alabama I learned right from wrong. What the President did was more than wrong. Someone has to stand up & say so. I will fulfill my oath & vote in favor of both articles of impeachment.
    Senators are elected to make tough choices. We must study the facts & exercise independent judgment in keeping with our oaths. I've studied the record for months. Unfortunately I believe the President abused his power for his own benefit. My statement: sen.gov/V71P

    I will not be a party to Mitch McConnell's power grab and I will not be a party to the further erosion of the Senate. I will not vote to confirm any Supreme Court justice nominee until after the election is concluded. The American people deserve a voice.
    Doug just took a stand for the American people. He will not vote for ANY Supreme Court nominee Mitch McConnell tries to rush through before Election Day. He has our back, let's have his: secure.actblue.com/donate/stop-mc…

    I may have the honor of serving Alabama as your senator, but the most important thing I have done is prosecuting those klansmen who killed 4 little girls at 16th St Baptist Church.

    Thanks! Haven’t been complimented about my weight in awhile. Regardless Mr. President, thank you for signing into law the 17 bipartisan bills that I sponsored that will help folks in Alabama.
    So good to see that Republicans will be winning the Great State of Alabama Senate Seat back, now that lightweight Senator @DougJones cast a partisan vote for the Impeachment Hoax. Thought his boss, Cryin’ Chuck, would have forced him to vote against the Hoax. A Do Nothing Stiff!

    I’ve been a trial lawyer for over 40 years & I have seen some mighty good lawyering. The House Managers’ performance today ranks right up there. I’ve also seen some mighty bad lawyering & the performance of the former President’s legal team ranks at or near the top of that list.

    Yes, 75K turned out, but not just for @KamalaHarris. They turned out for each other, for hope, for unity, for security, for the values that make us strong, for democracy. Above all else these folks, joined by the millions warching on TV and online, turned out for America! And
    Over 75,000 Americans turned out for @KamalaHarris 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

    58 years ago a bomb exploded at the 16th Street Baptist Church in B’ham, AL killing these 4 beautiful young ladies. As someone who helped bring their killers to justice, I carry their spirit with me every day. Hate still abounds in the USA & we have to do all we can to stop it

    Roy Moore won’t talk to the media, won’t talk to voters, won’t campaign, won’t debate, and couldn’t even handle me calling him embarrassing- he thinks he gets a free pass to the senate even with his disturbing history. #NoMoore
