Tomorrow, the Senate will put a stop to this reckless and partisan abuse of power by the House majority.
I urge every one of my colleagues to cast the vote that the facts in evidence, the Constitution, & the common good clearly require.
Vote to acquit the President. pic.twitter.com/LaIRnA98P6

The same Democrats who want to take over everyone’s healthcare and micromanage the entire economy couldn’t even organize their own traditional Iowa caucuses?

Washington Democrats’ position on President Trump has been obvious for three years: They believe he committed a “high crime [or] misdemeanor” the moment he defeated Secretary Clinton in the 2016 election.
That is the original sin of this presidency: That he won and they lost. pic.twitter.com/FOzXEd0lL3

The Framers knew that overheated House majorities might impeach on purely partisan grounds. But they knew that short-term passions could not get the final say. So they placed the ultimate judgment not in the fractious lower chamber, but in the sober and stable Senate. pic.twitter.com/tvT7IybPwU

A majority of the U.S. Senate has determined that the numerous witnesses and 28,000-plus pages of documents already in evidence are sufficient to judge the House Managers’ accusations and end this impeachment trial.

75 years ago today, the Allies liberated Auschwitz-Birkenau. We must never forget the 6 million Jewish people murdered by the Nazis and the horrors of the Holocaust. And we must renew our resolve to confront anti-Semitism wherever it takes root. #HolocaustRemembranceDay

Today, the Senate HELP and Foreign Relations Committees held an all-senator briefing with top administration health officials regarding the novel coronavirus outbreak that was first detected in Wuhan, China.

It was great to meet and thank Kentuckians who traveled to Washington for the March for Life. Washington needs your example and your advocacy more than ever. Thank you for your moral courage.

There were good reasons why all 100 senators agreed two decades ago that the Senate should not cross these bridges before we came to them. We will not let the architects of the unfair House process convince the Senate to rewrite our rules just for President Trump. pic.twitter.com/7J1zDlnwI4

The way the Senate decides to handle mid-trial questions such as witnesses could have institutional consequences that go far beyond this trial and this presidency. We are not going to rush into these questions without even hearing opening arguments. pic.twitter.com/taulxHiJJK

It will be telling if the House managers try to get the Senate to pre-commit ourselves to supplementing the investigation they themselves oversaw and decided to shut down. Just last week, they said their case as it already exists is “overwhelming” and “beyond a reasonable doubt.” pic.twitter.com/RXcjay4Ana

In 1999, the Senate unanimously agreed on a basic trial structure that was fair to all parties. Today, we must rise to the occasion and preserve that bipartisan precedent. Our resolution sets up the same basic steps. Fair is fair. pic.twitter.com/tQjlpDBj8F

BREAKING: The Senate just passed the USMCA. Next stop: @POTUS’s desk for his signature.
I’m grateful to the President for prioritizing this deal and delivering on this major promise. It’s a big win for Kentucky and for American families in all 50 states. pic.twitter.com/vgabr9QxDN

Yesterday, the Speaker celebrated impeachment with souvenir pens, bearing her own golden signature, brought in on silver platters. The House’s partisan process distilled into one last perfect visual. Not solemn or serious. A transparently political exercise from beginning to end. pic.twitter.com/AshajRLH2F

The framers built the Senate to break these kinds of partisan fevers. To stabilize our institutions and protect our country. To stop short-term passions from destroying our long-term future. That is the Senate's duty. That is what we must do when this trial begins.

Democrats’ impeachment has been nakedly partisan from the beginning. Pelosi admits it was in the making years before events with Ukraine. Schumer says that whatever happens, if it helps him politically, it’s a “win-win.” They are playing political games with the Constitution.

These two things cannot both be true. Is House Democrats’ case so “overwhelming” that it was enough to impeach a president? Or is their case so weak and incomplete that they need the Senate to redo it? They can’t even stick to one story.
