These fires are horrific. So grateful to all the first responders and all the personnel on the ground. There will be so much work to do in the future to support the families impacted.

This morning, I was honored to pay my respects to the late President Jimmy Carter. He was an incredible man who was a model for how we should live our lives. On behalf of the people I represent, I was able to say a prayer in the Rotunda today.
We are all grateful for local firefighters and first responders from across the county and the state, who are working hard to protect our region. We are working with the Governor and President to ensure that we get all the federal aid we need. We need to make sure no one is left behind.
We are closely monitoring the LA fires and are greatly concerned and heartbroken by the devastation. I’ve also been in contact with Chief Buchanan and the Long Beach Fire Department who has deployed response units to Pacific Palisades and Pasadena.
Donald Trump is a danger to our country.
Let’s be clear: January 6th was an insurrection and a blatant attack on our democracy, no matter how many times Trump & Marjorie Taylor Greene try to spin it.
We should never stop calling out Trump for threatening the very foundation of our nation.
(end thread)
Pardoning these people would mean letting violent criminals onto our streets and emboldening many more.
It would threaten our national security and put our democracy at risk.
We can't let that happen.
Inmates showed no remorse or regret. When they tried to shake my hand, I refused. Marjorie Taylor Greene instead gave them comfort and support.
They celebrated and chanted, "Let's Go Brandon."
They were never "hostages," like Trump claims. And they are held in much better conditions than most inmates.
They had tablets for entertainment and were separated from other inmates.
They were being treated fairly.
Around 20 inmates were being held at the time, awaiting trial for a variety of violent crimes.
Republican congress members treated the prisoners like celebrities, rather than people who attacked our capitol police and our very democracy.
Many are now serving long sentences.
4 years ago a mob incited by Donald Trump attacked the Capitol to overturn the election.
Now, Trump wants to pardon these insurrectionists.
In 2023, I visited these prisoners at the DC jail on behalf of the Dems on the Oversight Committee. Marjorie Taylor Greene was there.
Here's what happened: 🧵
Great to hear the Social Security Fairness Act was signed into law by POTUS, extending benefits to 3 million retirees. This includes millions of police officers, firefighters, and teachers across the country. I was proud to co-sponsor this legislation.
Why does Trump and Elon Musk want to eliminate the debt limit? Because they want to give huge tax breaks and cuts to themselves and their billionaire friends by redistributing hard earned income from working class folks. We can stop this.q
Let’s be clear: Elon Musk controls the Republican Party.
Bi-partisanship to House Republicans means they get everything they want - and we get nothing. They want to cut healthcare, the social safety net, and seperate familes. We need to fight like hell in Congress.
Like I have said before, working with Elon and his enablers will lead to the destruction of the social safety net. He wants to cut hard earned benefits so he can enrich his friends with tax cuts. We should NOT work with him.
House Republicans are a mess.
On the House floor and Johnson is going to lose this vote on this round.
No Dems are going to save him. 💅🏽
