    CAN WE PLEASE SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT. SOLICITING A FOREIGN GOVERNMENT TO HELP YOUR RE-ELECTION CAMPAIGN IS A CRIME. IT IS ILLEGAL. PRISON IS ONE OF THE PUNISHMENTS.

    Attached is the first page of a five page letter in which the lawyer for @DevinNunes threatens that Rep Nunes will sue me. Attached is my response.

    Let me be very clear: if all we do is accept the certified Electoral College results and go home, we would have failed our country. We must impeach Trump, or have the 25th Amendment execute, or have @realDonaldTrump resign. Congress cannot just go home like nothing happened.
    A growing number of GOP leaders believe President Trump should be removed from office before January 20, either by the 25th amendment or impeachment cnn.it/38lg9L1

    Dear @realDonaldTrump: What is wrong with you? Disaster victims deserve help & sympathy. Oh, and guess who owns much of the forest land in CA? Your federal agencies. CA only owns 2%. Guess who cut funding to forest management in the budget? YOU DID. #SaturdayMorning Thoughts
    There is no reason for these massive, deadly and costly forest fires in California except that forest management is so poor. Billions of dollars are given each year, with so many lives lost, all because of gross mismanagement of the forests. Remedy now, or no more Fed payments!

    Dear @realDonaldTrump: The below picture is what leadership looks like. Can you tweet out a picture of you at your private golf club today?
    The Mayor of San Juan is wading through sewage, searching for people with a bullhorn while @realDonaldTrump insults her on twitter.

    My statement on the retirement of Justice Kennedy. “The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new Congress.”

    Last night at a restaurant in Torrance, CA strangers thanked me for telling the truth. I politely said thank you. Their actions say far more about our nation than about me. This also happens to me at the mall, airports & coffee shops. This is what happens when you tell the truth.

    I just want to note that in America, you don’t get to have one free coup attempt. That’s why we are readying Articles of Impeachment for introduction this Monday.
    Graham says he doesn't currently support invoking the 25th Amendment -- but "if something else happens, all options would be on the table."

    Dear @realDonaldTrump: Like your grandfather, my parents infested America. As their son with yellow skin, I now get to vote against your harmful policies. And after you leave due to either losing reelection or impeachment, I will still be here reversing your shit. Cheers.

    I served on active duty in the United States military to defend your right to say stupid, racist shit about me.

    Today the former President issued a statement filled with lies. And no one cared. Very few people even saw it. Beautiful.

    Dear @Walmart, remember how: Mario Kart caused people to drive faster? Pac-Man caused folks to eat more? Fortnite radicalized a white supremacist to shoot Hispanics at your store? You disrespect the victims of mass shootings by making up stupid shit. Stop blaming video games.
