I want to say a word on behalf of Stacey Abrams, who was the target of some rhetorical attacks over there. There is a picture of her without her mask on in front of a bunch of kids who did have their masks on, and it was being denounced by…
Jamie Raskin
The Public Record
Jamie Raskin is an American attorney, law professor, and politician serving as the U.S. Representative for Maryland's 8th congressional district since 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, Raskin has been an advocate for various progressive policies, including healthcare reform and civil rights. He gained national attention for his role in the impeachment proceedings against former President Donald Trump, where he served as a lead impeachment manager during the Senate trial in early 2020.
After he knew that violence was underway at the Capitol, President Trump took actions that further incited the insurgents to be more inflamed and to take even more extreme, selective, and focused action against Vice President Mike Pence.
Denial is not just a river in Egypt. For some of our colleagues it is a way of life.
I thank the chairman for yielding. I salute our colleague, Congresswoman Bustos, for introducing what will certainly be the most important piece of pro-labor legislation to pass out of the 117th Congress. Our Constitution guarantees our…
the RNC could start helping Chinese opponents, even though the people haven`t even met yet, which does sound a bit like a one-party dictatorship.
We can`t have healing before we have an honest reckoning. And this President must be held accountable for the role he has played.
Mike Pence should be out there saying that it is a scandal that Donald Trump is dangling pardons in front of hundreds or perhaps thousands of people who participated in the insurrection.
I want to make sure that every substantial subplot to overthrow the 2020 presidential election is fully investigated.
Why is America such an extraordinary country? We are not unified by virtue of being one ethnicity, or one ideology, or one religion. We`re unified by one constitution and one rule of law and then the values under our Constitution. It is an…
These are the times that try men and women souls. These are the times that try men women souls. The summer soldier in the sunshine Patriot will shrink at this moment from the service of their cause in their country. But everyone who stands…
the rewriting of the history of January 6th to be legitimate political discourse is just a fascist tactic.
It's beautiful legislation that I hope will be unifying across every line in America.
I'm thrilled about this legislation, Mr. Clyburn. I thank you so much for bringing this forward.
It seems pretty clear to the members of the committee that Donald Trump perfected the art of dangling pardons in front of people who were in a position to give evidence about various crimes he was engaged in.
We will tell a complete story, beginning, middle, and end, the best that we can to explain to people exactly what happened on January 6th, in the events leading up to it, why took place and what we would need to do to prevent future…
Does anybody have a doubt that, if God forbid, he were to get back into office, that he would go ahead and pardon all the January 6th insurrectionists and coup plotters? Of course he would.
But look, Donald Trump has made an M.O., out of trying to make totally illegal and illegitimate actions, seem legitimate, or to raise the question of whether or not it was legitimate.
So, we have to be very emphatic that in our constitutional system, you can't overthrow the winner of the Electoral College, by coercing the Vice President, to declare new powers--
And when that didn't work, then they moved to 'All right, let's get Mike Pence, just to decree, new powers, in the Vice Presidency, to reject Electoral College votes, and overturn the popular election,' which is what Donald Trump was…
