Eric Swalwell

At 2:44 p.m., Ashli Babbitt attempted to climb through a shattered window into the House lobby. To protect the members in the lobby, an officer discharged his weapon and she was killed.

You know how close you came to the mob. Some of you, I understand, could hear them. But most of the public does not know how close these rioters came to you.

America has been attacked before, but not like this. On January 6, Donald Trump incited thousands of radicalized terrorists to attack the Capitol to stop a transition of power. Let that sink in. Our President incited our citizens to attack…

It demonstrates that there's an urgency here to get Donald Trump out of office to protect life.

They understand that by doing this, the president endangered life and sought to really reduce democracy.

On January 6th, Donald Trump incited radicalized terrorists to attack the Capitol to stop the counting of electoral ballots. Donald Trump won't protect life and cannot uphold our Constitution, so we must do so today. It is time for our…

We're going to do it because it could lead to his removal if there's enough courage in the Senate.

We prefer, Lawrence, for the president to step aside. We know he won't do that. If that's not going to happen, we prefer for the vice president to step up and show some courage and invoke the 25th amendment. We know he probably won't do…

Well, Joy, it's never too late to just do what's right. And I will say, Joy, that if you didn't believe in wearing masks a couple weeks ago, and you have adopted now, great. If you mixed families a couple weeks ago, and you recognize that…

The virus hasn't quit. The hunger hasn't quit. The bread lines and the food lines haven't quit. And the unemployment lines haven't quit. And so, we can't quit. We have to get this deal passed.

Absolute corruption, Lawrence. We see a president who's not interested in justice. He's interested in protecting himself and recognizes first he has to protect others. It's not about justice at all. It's a criminal who's seeking to cover…

you have not denounced this violent language that goes to the point of one of the president's lawyers, Joe diGenova, saying publicly in a talk show that Chris Krebs should be shot and killed.

It's time for ascertainment. It's time for transition, Lawrence. But I'm going to go at this a little bit differently because I want to believe everything that you just read that sources are saying about Emily Murphy, that she's a…

It's time to prove your friends right and do the right thing. And when you do that, you're going to join the company of people like Chris Krebs, the Homeland Security official who was just fired, Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman and…

Lawrence, people will die every day that this transition is delayed. And the greatest challenge of our lifetime will be to go from vaccine to vaccination. They're not the same thing.

I read a piece, Representative Swalwell, in 'USA Today' that talked about the death threats on Governor Gretchen Whitmer, who we just had on the show in the previous -- before the previous break, saying that Republicans understand that…

The Homeland Security official who was fired, his job was to secure the election, not to secure Donald Trump's reelection.

Look, Donald Trump cannot fire his way out of defeat. He cannot sue his way to victory. It is over. This virus is beating us. And it's going to take more and more lives if my Republican colleagues can't find the nerve and the spine to…

Now they look at us, and they see a firing like this today, and they see three things. One, democracies are fragile, you have to work on them, and, third, and most importantly, you have to protect them.

Democracies are fragile, you have to work on them, and, third, and most importantly, you have to protect them.

Joe Biden has mastered the lesson of never make someone more significant than they are. And right now, Donald Trump is a play president when Americans face real issues.

And you know who also gets it? Georgia voters, because right now they see that this behavior from Republican senators is really telegraphing how they will work with President Biden.

Now, we are in the midst of a completely avoidable national security crisis. We all wish the president well. But this is a completely avoidable crisis.

If the president is healthy and able, I think, every day, demonstrating that is a good thing.

I really believe we're a country that follows our leaders. And if the leader of the country is not wearing a mask, and if the leader of the country is mocking people who wear masks, it's going to have a trickle-down effect.
