"The Republicans have faced continual tests of character, courage, and patriotism, and not very many of them have passed those tests." I spoke with @JohnFugelsang about my book "The Betrayal" and McConnell's legacy on his podcast. (24:12 - 43:42). open.spotify.com/episode/3r5aD9…
On May 21st on 6pm, I'll be at People's Books in Takoma Park, MD for a book signing and conversation about "The Betrayal: How Mitch #McConnell and the Senate #Republicans Abandoned America" with Tamera Luzzatto. RSVP now (free event)! peoplesbooktakoma.com/event/ira-shap…
"This book in itself is very interesting...it speaks the truth...you are bringing it right back to us and we've gotta listen to it. - @Arroecollins Listen to my conversation wiht Arroe Collins on his recent podcast about The Betrayal. open.spotify.com/episode/7mGgJQ…
@AlsobrooksForMD Another important endorsement for the best person to take on Hogan. As noted by former Clinton trade ambassador @ShapiroGlobal, "Angela Alsobrooks is a remarkable candidate because she is already a proven leader."
Two years of steadfast leadership on aid to Ukraine is the finest moment in the career of #LeaderMcConnell.But then, how can he endorse Trump, who would hand Ukraine to Putin on a platter if elected?

Great point by #marcthiessen, an insightful and honest conservative. It's natural to focus on the presidential election, but we change the direction of the country by defeating Josh Hawley, a proud supporter of the Jan. 6 insurrection, in November.

#EliseStefanik operating at the intersection of cynical and pathetic. Kudos to Speaker Johnson, Leader Jeffries, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer and President Biden for prevailing over this Trumpian garbage.

I'm proud to have worked with #BillClinton in his administration, and the aid package to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan reminds us that even deep partisan differences can be overcome when the stakes are high enough.

'Best one to take on Hogan' by @ShapiroGlobal, former Clinton administration trade ambassador & Senate staffer; author of three books about the Senate. "Angela Alsobrooks is a remarkable candidate because she is already a proven leader." @AlsobrooksForMD baltimoresun.com/2024/04/18/ang…
Superb performance by @SpeakerJohnson. Thanks also to the other Mikes---Committee Chairmen McCaul, Turner, and Rogers, who helped persuade the speaker that not all House Republicans were isolationist, Putin lovers.

Kudos to Speaker Mike Johnson for understanding the importance of aiding Ukraine. And kudos to Hakeem Jeffries for ensuring that Johnson could stay as Speaker despite the MAGA wing of his party.

"Obama mocked Romney for warning about Putin’s Russia: 'The 1980s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back.' It turns out we’re living in a world far closer to that of the Cold War 1980s than to the world Obama imagined we inhabited in 2012." thebulwark.com/p/a-new-foreig…

“Angela Alsobrooks is a remarkable candidate because she is already a proven leader.” “She would bring to the Senate a lived experience that is quite remarkable and an experience that few, if any, senators have.” Thank you @ShapiroGlobal I could’t agree more.

A rare moment of agreement with @newtgingrich Speaker Johnson took hard decisions to continue funding the government. Now he is working to aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. Democrats should make sure that he stays as Speaker through the year.

More than 3 million U.S. tourists visit the Dominican Republic each year and over 300,000 U.S. citizens live here permanently. We are committed to strengthening this deep connection and bolstering the tourism sector so that even more Americans can visit this breathtaking nation.
Not to get too upbeat or anything, but it does seem as we end 2022 that we’re seeing Trump’s control of the GOP, Putin’s control of Russia, and the mullahs’ control of Iran weakening. May the year 2023 bring them all tumbling down! Something to look forward to—and to work for.
Continuing our support for Ukraine is morally right, but it is not only that. It is also a direct investment in cold, hard, American interests.

On the Meadows-Thomas texts: Meadows was President's Trump's chief of staff--his top aide. Meadows was dealing with all kinds of election-overturning types. What Mrs. Thomas discussed with her husband could be important. What Mark Meadows discussed with Trump will be be crucial.
Foreshadowing: In 1997, Sen. Joe Biden visited Moscow and concluded that it opposed NATO expansion not out of real security concerns but out a “deeper psychological problem…the loss of empire and a fear of Moscow’s being marginalized in the changed world of the 21st century.”
