Jan. 22, 2021
Tweet - "Donald Trump's incitement of the insurrection that sought to overturn a free and fair election was an existential threat to our constitutional democracy. The Senate must extinguish this threat by convicting him and preventing him from attempting to seize power ever again."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 21, 2021
Tweet - "Today the House passed the waiver to enable Lloyd Austin, a decorated retired general, to become Secretary of Defense. Secretary-designate Austin is fully committed to the vitally important principle of civilian control of the military. He will serve with integrity and honor."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 21, 2021
Tweet - "We impeached Trump, and I hope that the Senate will convict him, and never allow him to hold office again. Cleansing is what this country needs. We can't let this democracy collapse because of the craziness of one individual."
Rep. Jim Clyburn

Sen. Lindsey Graham

Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 13, 2021
Tweet - "Never before has a President incited mob violence to block certification of his opponent's victory. Never before has a President refused to immediately condemn & demand the cessation of an attack on our country. There is no debate. We must impeach this dangerous President."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 13, 2021
Tweet - "Today, we must do our constitutional duty once again. While the president failed in his attempt to upend our democracy, last Wednesday's events make clear that if we do not hold him accountable and remove him from power, a future attempt could succeed."

Jan. 13, 2021
Tweet - "I think it's very clear that this president has violated his oath of office in a way that no president before him has ever done. Conviction is up to somebody else. That's not our job. Our job is to lay out the facts for the American people, take it to a vote and impeach."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 13, 2021
Tweet - "This President's refusal to take part in a peaceful transfer of power--and his role in causing last week's violence--pose an existential threat to our constitutional democracy. This President must be impeached, convicted, and he must be prevented from seizing power ever again."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 13, 2021
Tweet - "I think until Trump is no longer eligible allowed to participate in the process, there will still be people fearful of him. I do really feel that we ought to do what's necessary for this man not to ever run again. - via @CNN's @OutFrontCNN w/ @ErinBurnett"
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 12, 2021

Sen. Tim Scott
Jan. 12, 2021

Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 11, 2021
Tweet - "Today we mourn the loss of another Capitol Police officer, Howard Liebengood. As the death toll from the insurrection at the Capitol continues to rise, we demand that this president be held accountable for inciting this horrific assault on our democracy."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 11, 2021

Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 6, 2021

Rep. Jim Clyburn
Dec. 29, 2020
