At the White House tonight, POTUS took a moment to call my mother. It’s called compassion.

Dear @NikkiHaley - last night u asked ? “Where was @JoeBiden when Hamas was attacking Israel and no one was doing anything?” I’ll tell you. He was getting an emergency appropriations bill thru Congress to replenish Iron Dome defensive missiles. Where were you? #Biden2020 #Biden

I get frustrated with the narrative by some in the media that @RepAdamSchiff is experiencing his “24 hours of fame.” He’s developed the skills that we’re seeing now over an entire career in pursuit of justice as both a prosecutor and a Congressman. He was made for the moment.

If you can’t condemn, without equivocation and relativism, the kidnapping of babies and the elderly, the slaughter of young civilian men and women at a concert, the dragging of bodies through the streets, you have lost all moral clarity. Your opinions are no longer serious.

If the results in NY’s congressional primaries hold up, it will be clear that the political landscape is fundamentally changing in the state as a new generation uproots the establishment. It’s a realignment based on demography, diversity and ideology.

Sarah - in the darkest moments in political history, there were people like you who covered for mendacity. They did so happily. But history, it turns out, has been unkind to them.
President Trump believes in a free press and expects and welcomes tough questions of him and his Administration. We will, however, never tolerate a reporter placing his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern...
