Sen. John Cornyn: "POTUS is mistaken if he believes concerns about the provisions in his tax lawsuit settlement are limited to me and Senator Tillis."

Rep. Lloyd Doggett:"Trump has fenced off Lafayette Square across from the White House, denying access to a public park long known as the site of celebrations, protests, and tourists taking photographs. Fencing off the public: fencing himself off from reality."

Rep. Keith Self: "The sign outside my D.C. office honoring the life of Charlie Kirk—a warrior for Christ and American martyr—was just vandalized. My office has immediately reported this despicable act to the U.S. Capitol Police. The radical Left’s hatred and intolerance know no bounds."

Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "Two things can be true at once: Todd Blanche is unfit to serve as Attorney General... and John Cornyn can get his get-back while doing this country a favor. This felt like an UNO Reverse on Trump lol."
