- Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on protests at Columbia University: "Smashing windows with hammers and taking over university buildings is not free speech. It is lawlessness. And those who did it should promptly face the consequences that are not merely a slap on the wrist." Free speech, discussion, and even strong disagreement are fundamental American values and campuses should be places where those values are cherished. Campuses cannot be places of learning and and argument and discussion when protests veer into criminality. And those who commit such acts are doing nothing to convince others that their cause is just."

- Description
- The book "Fire and Rain" is a narrative, according to author Carolyn Woods Eisenberg, about the way national security decisions, formed at the highest level of government, affect the lives of individuals at home and abroad. Her primary focus is on the way the Nixon administration fought and ended the Vietnam War. Early in the book, Hofstra University professor Eisenberg quotes President Nixon's predecessor, Lyndon Johnson, during his 1964 election campaign: "We are not about to send American boys nine or ten thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves." However, the U.S. left Vietnam permanently in 1975 and, at the end, the number of U.S. military personnel killed in the war was 58,098.

- The Weekly Podcast: Nixon Death 30 Years Later: Remembering Congress Reaction
- Date posted

- Description
- It is my sad duty to inform you officially of the death of Richard Milhous Nixon, the thirty-seventh President of the United States
Born in 1913, he was first elected to the Congress in 1946, a member of that historic freshman class of World War II veterans that also included John F. Kennedy. He was elected to the Senate in 1950, and served two terms as Vice President of the United States between 1953 and 1961. His career in the Congress coincided with the great expansion of the American middle class, when men and women from backgrounds as humble as his own secured the triumph of freedom abroad and the promise of economic growth at home
That was a message from President Clinton … read at the beginning of the House session on April 25, 1994. It was the first day Congress met after Richard Nixon’s, death three days earlier.
In 1968, Richard Nixon was elected the 37th President after previously serving as a U.S. Representative and a U.S. Senator....

- Washington Today (4-16-24): House GOP sends DHS Sec impeachment articles to Senate for trial
- Date posted
- 16 days ago
- Description
- House Republican impeachment managers walk the articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro to the Senate, where they are formally presented.
The articles charge the Secretary with "willfully" failing to enforce immigration and border security laws to prevent the wave of migrants which have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border in recent years and a "breach of public trust" by lying to Congress about whether the border is secure.
The question now is whether the Senate will conduct a full impeachment trial, as most Republicans have asked for, or quickly table, or kill, the articles, as many Democrats have called for.
After a second House Republican – Thomas Massie (R-KY) – supports a motion to remove House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and calls on him to resign, the Speaker says he is "not resigning," saying it is "an absurd notion" that someone would bring a motion to vacate "when we are simply here trying to do our jobs."
