President Iham Aliyev says Moscow initially tried to "cover up" its role in the Azerbaijan Airlines crash. Putin must admit liability, compensate victims, and punish offenders!

Jimmy Carter was one of the most honest & moral presidents, no doubt our finest former POTUS. From his Nobel Peace Prize to Habitat for Humanity, his compassion was unmatched. I’ll never forget seeing him on my flight from ATL-DC—he shook hands with every passenger. What a marvelous human being.

Sanctioning #Ivanishvili is a strong step by President Biden to push back against Putin’s influence & defend Georgia’s democracy. Corrupt oligarchs and enablers of authoritarianism must be held accountable. I stand with our allies in the fight for freedom & democracy. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Laura Loomer on her X suspension: "If he's a free speech absolutist, why was my account suspended? ... I am simply trying to warn the Trump administration about something that's going to blow up in their face, and it actually has the risk of potentially getting President Trump impeached"

. @casten.house.gov & I fought to release this report because the public had a right to see it. They paid for it. I commend the Ethics Cmte. members who voted to release. This isn’t just sex and drugs—it's unethical use of campaign funds, financial improprieties, and a panoply of violations.
