.@SpeakerPelosi and I agree:
Congress needs to establish an investigative body like the 9/11 Commission to determine Trump's ties to Putin so we can repair the damage to our national security and prevent a puppet from occupying the presidency ever again.
I had a no-holds-barred conversation with @SpeakerPelosi about her experience of the Capitol insurrection and what comes next for our country.
Listen to a special edition of "You And Me Both" wherever you get your podcasts.
Replying to @JulianCastro: The more we learn about family separation, the more we see was both a willfully cruel and criminally negligent policy.

Quoted @COVID19Tracking
COVID-19 deaths are 25% higher than any other week since the pandemic began. For scale, COVID-19 deaths reported this week exceed the CDC's estimate of 22K flu-related deaths during the entire 2019-2020 season.
It was never just "like the flu."
Americans have had to wait far too long for help.
Finally, it's on the way.
The more we learn about family separation, the more we see was both a willfully cruel and criminally negligent policy.
We must hold every person who created and facilitated family separation accountable under the law and never repeat this mistake.
Democracy is fragile. We, the people, are its stewards. And we have a lot of work to do to protect it from those who attack it.
Let's encourage our representatives to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act as a first step to safeguard access to the ballot. #DemocracyAgenda
Quoted @AP
BREAKING: Former Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder and other ex-officials have been told they’ll be charged in the Flint water scandal, two people with knowledge of the planned prosecution tell AP. Lead-contaminated water devastated the majority Black city.
Thinking about the children in Flint.
If you haven't seen #TheDissident, I hope that you will. This incredibly powerful documentary about the assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the hands of the Saudi government is available to watch now:
Congratulations to @Schriock1 and @creynoldsnc on their new book, which somehow manages to fit years of invaluable wisdom and advice into one volume. Get this for a woman in your life who's only begun to run and win.
I worked with Ambassador Bill Burns for years at the State Department, where he was an architect of the Iran Deal on top of decades of public service.
As President-elect Biden's choice to head the CIA, he'll protect our security at home and abroad with honor and integrity.
Here's how elected Republicans and conservative media can begin the healing and unifying process:
Accurately state that Joe Biden was duly elected president in a free and fair election.
Urge Trump supporters to refrain from further violence.
For a start.
The attack on the Capitol makes it even more important that the Senate continue the long-standing tradition of confirming the President-elect’s national security team on day one.
For the good of our country, we need more women to step up as leaders.
Join @schriock1 and me tomorrow to talk about her new guide to running and winning—within the political arena and without.
Last week’s attack is cause for grief and outrage. But it should not be cause for shock.
My essay in the @WashingtonPost.

It can be hard to see a way forward and a path to overcoming hate after the last four years. But as @GabbyGiffords writes, 10 years since the attack that nearly killed her: “We will move ahead together as I did & still do every day—one foot after another."
Today, domestic terrorists attacked a foundation of our democracy: the peaceful transfer of power following free elections.
We must reestablish the rule of law and hold them accountable.
Democracy is fragile. Our leaders must live up to their responsibility to protect it.
Replying to @JoshShapiroPA: RT if you agree with me that the Electoral College should be abolished and replaced with a national popular vote.
