Five years ago today, Trump sent violent insurrectionists to attack the U.S. Capitol. Law & order won that day thanks to law enforcement, and many rioters were convicted. Shamefully, Trump made it a priority last year to pardon these criminals, including those who assaulted police officers.

January 6th taught us how fragile our system of government can be. We must learn the lesson and stay vigilant in fighting against all forms of attack on our democracy.

Ask yourself who benefits from all this hate and division? While we’re busy arguing with our neighbors, those in power are busy moving wealth from the bottom to the top.

Don't let this Jan 6th point get lost: Jack Smith testified to Congress he had "proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election." In other words, he could prove in court that Trump attempted a coup.

As we mark 5 years since rioters stormed the Capitol on January 6th, those of us who were trapped in the House Gallery delivered hot meals to thank the brave, dedicated men and women who protect and support us. Proud to serve those who serve us every day.

The insurrection forever changed the course of American history. Right-wing extremism has further become a threat since January 6th. That day serves as a reminder: Democracy isn't just a suggestion. Protecting it is fundamental to preserving the integrity of the nation.

Minnesotans didn’t ask for Kristi Noem to have a camera crew follow her around while masked ICE agents harass our neighbors like it’s some sick and twisted reality show.

It’s been 5 years since the President incited a violent riot at the Capitol in an attempt to overturn a free and fair election. January 6, 2021, is a stain on American history. Today, I'll be keeping the more than 100 Capitol Police officers who were injured in my thoughts.

Outrageous. No one should find AI-created sexual images of themselves online—especially children. X must change this. If they don’t, my bipartisan TAKE IT DOWN Act will soon require them to. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Trump's illegal military strike WAS NEVER about stopping drugs or democracy for Venezuela. It's about OIL and how Trump can use Venezuela's oil to get himself and his donors rich. He is quite literally telling us that. And that's not worth risking American lives for.

If Trump really was interested in combating drug trafficking, he never would have pardoned convicted drug trafficker and former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez.

Greedy corporations are exploiting service workers with unpredictable schedules and little to no benefits. Workers deserve better. My Schedules That Work Act and Part-Time Worker Bill of Rights would give workers the protections they deserve.

How’d Susie Wiles get access to the Epstein files? And under what authority? The Trump Administration has lost trust with the American people on this case. Full transparency is the only way out.

Our health care system is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable. 60% of people are living paycheck to paycheck. Instead of trying to "run" Venezuela, Trump might try to do a better job running the United States.

On January 6, 2021, thousands invaded the Capitol with the intent of disrupting and overthrowing our government—and Trump urged them to do it. We can never forget this day. We have an obligation to remind people of the truth and the fragility of this democracy.

Trump “in charge”? Venezuela has the same repressive regime, only the names have changed. Trump running Venezuela means no strategy, no legal support, no national security purpose, & now, no moral partners.

Five years ago, we faced one of the darkest days in our nation’s history. If we cannot learn from January 6th, we are setting ourselves up to repeat it. Today, I urge my colleagues to join me in committing to protecting our democracy and most cherished freedoms before we lose them for good.

Today, @padilla.senate.gov and I are introducing bills to make clear that no one who stormed the Capitol should get a taxpayer-funded cash giveaway — especially not those who violently assaulted police officers.

The Trump Administration failed to comply with federal law when it only partially “released” the Epstein files last month. We need an audit.

Mr. President: put up or shut up. If you have credible evidence of fraud, present it publicly. I will join you in addressing it. If you have no credible evidence of fraud, stop penalizing innocent, needy children. Picking on kids is not presidential.

NCAR provides weather data that is critical for everything from agriculture to public safety. Trump wants to gut NCAR and put our communities at risk. We will use every tool to keep that from happening.

If you feel like you're losing your mind as this administration plays footsy with the idea of INVADING GREENLAND, then you're not alone. Let me be clear: America will NOT invade a NATO ally. My Republican colleagues need to join me in making that crystal clear.

Those who fear the truth or attempt to distort it face a lesson in history. The reality of events will prevail and those who distort it will be relegated to a shameful trash heap reserved for traitors and liars.

It's been 5 years since Donald Trump sent a violent mob to attack our nation's Capitol. Donald Trump has done everything he can to try to rewrite the history of that day, even letting the 1500 insurrectionists, including those who senselessly beat cops, off scot-free. (1/3)

We will never forget what happened on January 6: Insurrectionists attacked our Capitol with the goal of overturning a free and fair election. Thanks to our heroic Capitol Police, democracy prevailed. We must keep fighting for our democracy — as we have for nearly 250 years.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump ignited a violent mob to attack the Capitol and disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. Last year, Donald Trump pardoned over 1,500 of those insurrectionists. It's an assault on American democracy.

Every dollar of taxpayer money President Trump gives to the largest oil corporations in the world to "rebuild" Venezuela is a dollar robbed from rebuilding America.

It doesn't get more wicked than this. Donald Trump is cutting $10 billion for child care and social services in Illinois and 4 other blue states. Playing politics and coming after kids because they happen to live in states that voted against him is anything but America first.
