Over the weekend, former Pres. Trump shared 2 memes on Truth Social that described Jan. 6, 2021 "as the day the government set up a staged riot to cover up the fact they certified a fraudulent election.”. On Monday, Rep. @Jim_Jordan dined with Trump. Today, I asked if he agreed.

Here’s the scene just one block from the church @realDonaldTrump is currently at. Based off my previous tweets, police used flash bangs and potentially tear gas to clear the section of 16th Street the president is currently at. #GeorgeFloyd

In 5.5 years of covering Congress, I can confidently say @Jim_Jordan has been the most fascinating member to report on. If he becomes Speaker, it will drastically change the Congress. If he fails, I think he will still remain an influential member of the @HouseGOP. End of 🧵.

My team and I are heading out, but the peaceful #GeorgeFloyd protest is still going strong outside the White House. Curfew in the nation’s capital is 11pm ET, so we’ll see what happens when that time comes. But last night, protestors stayed long past the 7pm curfew.
