I happened to take a snap of Library of Congress's Annotated Constitution in January (for some other reason).

My #CongressPerson #AyannaPressley's Town Hall call called *me* this evening - out of the blue, I hadn't signed up for anything - so, just calling random constituents?

This isn't a complaint - it was just a surprise!

It was kind of interesting, and of course alarming given...whatever tf all this is. Sounds like she's really trying to hold onto democracy. Also somewhat frustrating because the R's kept calling for votes so she had to go back and forth.

#CNN, I'd like to introduce you to #JustinJones, #Congressperson from #Tennessee. Perhaps you would like to invite him on one of your shows to discuss #Trump's hate-filled, racist, xenophobic, misogynistic, borderline criminal -- or maybe not so borderline -- (he discussed with #Putin the invasion of #Ukraine?) debate performance.

@wdlindsy. With each new revelation, I can't help but wonder why we are only now reading about this. Did the #Louisiana #media do a better job than the national media, or was no one paying attention? As a #teacher, I would like to give the #NYT and the #WashingtonPost an assignment. Each day, instead of doing a #horserace article for the umpteenth time, pick a #congressperson and dig into their record. Write about their #interviews, #sources of funding, belief (or not) in #democracy.
