  3. #TedLieu continued: “I demand this committee, this chairman & #Republicans, call an immediate hearing asking why the Department of Justice is refusing to release 99% of the #EpsteinFiles & why the #DOJ is violating the #law right now.”

    DOJ said earlier this month that it has released <1% of its Epstein-related files, with >2 million documents still being reviewed.

  4. Earlier Rep #TedLieu (D-CA) kicked some #GOP ass for their #lies & #hypocrisy.

    Lieu called out his Republican colleagues for choosing to hold a hearing on #JackSmith’s probes into #Trump instead of an oversight hearing into #DOJ’s slow release of files related to the late sex offender #JeffreyEpstein.

  7. "#TedLieu just encapsulated the recent legal debacles of the #Trump camp quite well, in about three and a half minutes; to believe that a vast conspiracy against Trump exists in law enforcement, one has to forget not only that LEOs typically lean quite strongly in conservative favor, particularly at the Federal level, and that said law enforcement apparatus, which was or is led in many cases by Trump appointees..."

  8. Via @atrupar:

    "It is not the fault of the #FBI that Donald #Trump surrounded himself with criminals" -- brilliant line of questioning here from #TedLieu highlighting how a range of Trump staffers were convicted by a DOJ overseen *by Trump staffers*

  9. @Jon6705 @jnoxon @fuzzychef

    On the plus side, at least someone in our govt is forward-thinking and considering that we need new laws-- BEFORE the new #technology can be used unethically.

    Rep. #TedLieu (D-CA) is now introducing the "Fundamentally Understanding the Usability & Realistic Evolution of #ArtificialIntelligence (FUTURE of #AI) Act"...

  10. Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) quote tweets reporting about concessions McCarthy is willing to make to become speaker:

    Kevin McCarthy has now been so weakened that he and the GOP caucus will not be able to govern effectively even if he becomes Speaker.

    Kevin McCarthy has apparently agreed that it takes just 1 Member of his caucus to make a motion to fire him and there would be a vote. Ridiculous.

    #TedLieu talks softly and carries a big bag o’popcorn.

    We should deliver gourmet popcorn to the House floor tomorrow. There are no rules.

  12. House Democrats elected Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) to serve as vice chair of the caucus next year, solidifying his place as the highest ranking Asian American in Congress.

    Lieu bested three other lawmakers — Reps. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) and Madeleine Dean (D-Pa.) — in a closed-ballot vote to secure his spot as the No. 5 House Democrat in the next Congress.
