TWEETS OF NOTE

(@MarshaBlackburn) On this day in 2018, Joe Biden bragged that he would withhold $1 billion in foreign aid to Ukraine if they didn’t fire the prosecutor investigating his son and Burisma. If this is true, under the House Democrats’ logic, wouldn’t it be impeachable conduct? Tweet.

(@DineshDSouza) How telling that the media never presses the Democratic leadership on whether it is appropriate for Democratic Senators like Sanders and Warren to vote to remove their fall election opponent. Does being on the Left excuse one from all conflicts of interest? #ImpeachmentSham Tweet.
