In 2014, the major news networks refused to air Obamaâs immigration speech because it was "overtly political." So what exactly was last night's @realDonaldTrump speech?
I wrote to the four major network heads to ask what the rationale was for airing Trump's lies.

McConnell just said itâs not worth voting on anything because Senate Republicans wonât vote for a bill the President doesnât support, as if the veto override somehow got stripped out of the Constitution.

For two years, the GOP controlled the White House and both houses of Congress.
If The Wall had been an actual priority of Trump's, it would have easily passed.
It wasn't an actual priority. Until Rush Limbaugh hurt his feelings.
Shutdown is all kinds of bullshit.

BREAKING: The Senate voted against bringing to the floor a bill that would encourage states to suppress the right to boycott.
This is what happens when we collectively exercise our First Amendment right to protest â and why it's so important to defend that right.

Trump just said of government shutdown over border wall, now in third week: âThis is not a fight I wanted. I didnât want this fight.â
Back in December, Trump said on camera, "I am proud to shut down the government for border security."

When I reviewed the FBI #Kavanaugh report, I saw a stack of leads from the tip line - a foot & a half tall. There undoubtedly were tips worth pursuing. But weâll never know. Trump & the Senate Republicans wouldnât allow the FBI to follow up.
This is nothing short of a cover-up.

One copy of the FBI report. No more than an hour to review it. No ability for any follow up. Then a rushed vote.
For 2 years, McConnell has been carefully and purposefully breaking the Senate. This is the final blow. No comity or tradition left. Itâs just about power politics.

It is simply impossible, after seeing the results of the FBIâs supplemental work â I hesitate to call it an investigation â that anybody could think it was in any way, shape or form, the âcomprehensiveâ work the President promised. This so-called investigation is a sham.

Nearly 3000 people have died in Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria â largest natural disaster death toll in US in a century. The loss of so many lives is heartbreaking & reprehensible. We must do all we can to help our fellow citizens recover & rebuild. cbsnews.com/news/hurricane-mâŚ

Trump asked evangelical ministers to help Republicans from the pulpit by pushing their flock to vote Republican. If they do so, they jeopardize their churchâs non-profit status according to current IRS guidance. nytimes.com/2018/08/28/us/poâŚ

In a more respectful time, Mr. Vice President, there would be a Justice named Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court. But Garland never got so much as a hearing or even a courtesy visit from Senator McConnell.

...Justice Antonin Scalia was confirmed 98-0 and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg received support of 96 Senators. If we lived in a more respectful time, Judge Brett Kavanaugh would be overwhelmingly confirmed by the United States Senate. #ConfirmKavanaugh

Watching the American flag go up and down the White House flag pole over whether and how to honor the life of John McCain is a perfect symbol for an administration morally and emotionally adrift from common decency.

Brett #Kavanaugh has the fringe idea that internet service providers are entitled to 1st Amendment protection and can block certain content based on their preferences.
The fate of the internet will end up in #SCOTUS and if Kavanaugh is there, he will kill #NetNeutrality forever.

Letâs clear up the record here.
Our committee has received only 6% percent (6!!!) of #Kavanaughâs White House documents, and not even half of the limited set the #Republicans requested.
Where are the rest, and why arenât they ALL being made public? #ReleaseTheRecords

My staff has completed review of 430k plus pages of Kavanaugh records I assume democrats have done the same so they are ready for his hearing next wk 430k pages of docs are 2x more than any other SCOTUS nom
