Rep. MORE. Amash took to Twitter in May to say that after reading the Mueller report he believes the president engaged in "impeachable conduct," also accusing Attorney General voted to condemn the Michigan Republican’s remarks last month, but the group opted not to force him out despite a divide amongst members.

“Twitter should let the banned Conservative Voices back onto their platform, without restriction,” he wrote on Twitter. In recent years, Twitter started permanently banning prominent conservative voices such as Milo Yiannopoulos, Roger Stone, Tommy Robinson, Gavin McInnes, Alex Jones, and Laura Loomer.

Officials sa

Former vice president Joe Biden responded Wednesday to claims that his campaign plagiarized passages from environmental groups in a document describing his $1.7 trillion climate change plan. The 2020 Democratic presidential candidate told reporters during a stop in Boston to meet with Mayor Marty Walsh on the city’s climate change initiatives that his campaign made “a mistake.” “Look, they made a mistake, they corrected it, they acknowledged it,” Biden said. Biden referred reporters to a statement from a campaign spoke
