This Black History Month, I’m thinking about leaders like Barbara Johns, who fought to make our country live up to its highest ideals. Her courage as a student in segregated Virginia helped spark the end of school segregation. Her legacy deserves its place in the U.S. Capitol.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govFeb 3(source)

Congress must stop the lawlessness in Minnesota and across the country, with DHS breaking the law, ignoring the Constitution, committing violent acts and even murder. No secret police. Transparency and accountability aren’t optional. Masks OFF, body cameras ON, ID on demand.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govFeb 3(source)

Speaker Johnson is lying. He knows that counting mail votes is not “magic” or “fraudulent,” it is following the law. Echoing these lies shows how beholden Johnson is to the Liar In Chief, but the Speaker of the House should be above such awful behavior. This is disgraceful.

Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

For decades, START has reduced the risk on nuclear conflict. We must extend this treaty and prioritize efforts to prevent the possibility of a nuclear showdown. This shouldn’t be a partisan issue. youtube.com/shorts/rdQcJ...

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in American history and it is not remotely close.

Four days before Trump’s inauguration, lieutenants to an Abu Dhabi royal secretly signed a deal w/the Trump family to buy a 49% stake in World Liberty Financial for $500M, according to docs & people familiar. The buyer paid half up front, steering $187M to Trump entities. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

The vast majority of Americans do not want secret police. They see what is happening in Minneapolis and they think it’s wrong. They don’t want that in their towns. Why do Mike Johnson and Republicans want secret police? Why are they afraid of transparency? I think we know why.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govFeb 2(source)

Local police who patrol cities and towns show their faces and wear identification. Good policing depends on trust and accountability. We’re seeing the opposite in Minnesota- masked thugs hurting people, treating even the aged and children with cruelty. These are connected.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govFeb 2(source)

Without identification there is no accountability. We are seeing the consequences of that over and over again in American communities, with officers engaging in violence, violations of rights, and even murder. We don’t do secret police in America — the masks must come off.

Mike Johnson on unmasking ICE agents: "It would create further danger ... taking the mask off and putting their names and addresses on their uniforms -- I don't think the president would approve it and he shouldn't"

We will get justice. Release all the files now.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 30(source)

Trump’s co-opted Justice Department is arresting Georgia Fort and Don Lemon to intimidate journalists out of reporting the news while turning a blind eye to federal agents murdering American citizens. It’s appalling, and part of a larger assault on the First Amendment.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 30(source)

Alex Pretti doesn't have "stock," he isn't alive. CBP agents shot him in the back 10 times and killed him after disarming and pepper spraying him because he tried to protect a woman they were assaulting.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 30(source)

These concerns along with Trump’s attacks on the Fed mean this nominee must face hard questions about independence and monetary policy. Warsh can’t just get a rubber stamp. 4/4

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 30(source)

The Senate should note these bad qualifications and remember Warsh’s awful track record at the Fed during the 2008 financial crisis and Great Recession. 3/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 30(source)

He also chose him because Warsh has shown willingness to wildly alter his views on monetary policy based on who is in the White House, and because he is “out of central casting.” 2/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 30(source)

Trump chose Kevin Warsh for Fed Chair because his father-in-law is a billionaire donor, the brains behind Trump’s idiotic scheme to invade Greenland. 1/

The Director of National Intelligence is a serious, taxpayer-funded position created after 9/11 to coordinate efforts to keep Americans safe. Tulsi Gabbard is instead serving as Trump’s personal clown, chasing his lies and crackpot conspiracy theories. This is a scandal.

New: Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, is leading an administration-wide effort to probe the 2020 election for fraud and regularly briefing Trump and top White House officials on her progress. Officials are discussing EOs on voting ahead of midterms. www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

Beyer, Gaskins Announce Plans for Memorial Bench and Plaques Honoring 67 Lives Lost in DCA Crash

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 29(source)

We must also acknowledge this was a preventable tragedy – and do everything in our power to prevent this from happening again. We owe it to the victims, their families, and our entire community to continue pushing for meaningful safety reforms.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 29(source)

The memorial will be placed in Rivergate City Park, along the banks of the Potomac River in @alexandriavagov.bsky.social. The memorial will include a bench and plaques bearing the names of all 67 individuals who lost their lives.
