This morning, I swore in Pete Buttigieg as Secretary of Transportation. @SecretaryPete is a true problem-solver. He will bring people together to strengthen our nation’s infrastructure. And he will keep breaking boundaries while he’s at it. Congratulations, Mr. Secretary. pic.twitter.com/jTFTFtEWiS

While the chances of a conviction are nil, I think it's important for Trump's supporters to have to hear from people like this, as well as police officers who were beaten and maimed
Senator Ted Cruz deliberately and knowingly amplified specific lies fueling violent attackers. In doing so, he contributed to the carnage of Jan 6th. His actions since show that if given similar political opportunity, he would choose to do it again.He must resign.

GOP campaigners release billboards calling for Cruz, Hawley resignation
Schumer and McConnell have finally reached a Senate power sharing agreement, but it’s ridiculous that we even had to go through this. The Senate is an outdated 18th century institution that needs a 21st century update.https://t.co/KzvdvMSAhx

THIS JUST IN: Yes--or, of course--there is a connection between @RepMTG and the John Birch Society. She was the moderator for a Facebook Group page that championed the grand-daddy of crackpot conspiracists. Read my scoop:https://t.co/LJWKLgJodS

The other Q rep wants back in the spotlight
I spoke to Leader McCarthy this morning, and it is clear there is no alternative to holding a Floor vote on the resolution to remove Rep. Greene from her committee assignments. The Rules Committee will meet this afternoon, and the House will vote on the resolution tomorrow.

House to vote on removing rightwing extremist Marjorie Taylor Greene from committees

The conspiracies the right repeats over and over are not just stupid - they're dangerous.
