Sheryl Davis is accused of steering millions of dollars to Collective Impact, a San Francisco-based nonprofit she previously ran as executive director, according to a criminal complaint filed Monday by the San Francisco District Attorney's Office.
Rep. Chip Roy stated, 'We aren't getting the job done. Part of that is because we are bound by this big, broken, fake filibuster of 60 votes. But part of it is you gotta have the willpower to do it.'

Democrats will call him to testify, Swalwell insisted. We will use the leverage we have right now to put pressure on Comer to have Donald Trump testify. He continued: Look, if you're going to run an investigation, everyone who is a part of the most notorious child sex trafficking ring ever should have to testify those that knew something and those that were even on the periphery.
Twelve House Democrats who last year sued the Trump administration over a policy limiting congressional oversight of immigrant detention facilities returned to federal court Monday to challenge a second, new policy imposing further limits on such unannounced visits.
