Tweet - "You can't be pro-insurrection and pro-cop. You can't be pro-insurrection and pro-democracy. You can't be pro-insurrection and pro-American."
|
Pres. Joe Biden
|
| July 26, 2022
|
Tweet - "Here's something else wrong with the ex-president's record on crime: he opposes action on assault weapons. These military-style weapons kill cops -- and they kill school kids. We need to stop selling them in America."

|
| July 25, 2022

|
| July 25, 2022
|
Tweet - "Leaders like Governor DeSantis, Senator Marco Rubio, and Senator Rick Scott are all opposed to banning assault weapons. And to me, it's simple. If you can't support banning weapons of war on America's streets, you're not on the side of police."
