@SteveScalise What does that have to do with anything? After all that’s happened to you & you’re still running around caping for Trump and this racist administration. #ShameOnYou
Presidents come and go.
Congress will endure.
The Likud government’s decision to capitulate to a malignant narcissist (so-called President) and exclude two members of the House from visiting Israel is a sign of weakness, not strength.
It should be REVERSED IMMEDIATELY.
This woman right here is my sity. She deserves to live in peace & with human dignity. I am who I am because of her. The decision by Israel to bar her granddaughter, a U.S. Congresswoman, is a sign of weakness b/c the truth of what is happening to Palestinians is frightening.
I’m calling this like I see it: bigoted, short sighted and cruel. Any leader committed to advancing democracy would welcome with open arms two democratically elected United States Congresswomen. And every single member of Congress should be calling this out.
You never turned your back on me or the people, even when the nfl tried to silence your voice & the movement. You’ve never flinched or wavered. I love you Brother! Let’s get it! @E_Reid35
And to the people - I see you, I hear you and I love you! Thank you for having my back!!!✊🏾
Netanyahu’s discriminatory decision to ban members of Congress from Israel harms int’l diplomacy.
Visiting Israel & Palestine are key experiences towards a path to peace.
Sadly, I cannot move forward w scheduling any visits to Israel until all members of Congress are allowed.
The President of the United States is joining with a foreign government to punish duly elected representatives of the people to quash their dissent and prevent them from doing their job. This is shameful on his part and on the part of the Israeli government.
Today marks the three year anniversary of the first time I protested systemic oppression. I continue to work and stand with the people in our fight for liberation, despite those who are trying to erase the movement! The movement has always lived with the people! ✊🏾

I’m already on record, but I think I must reemphasize it again for those who might just now be paying attention: Democrats, white nationalism & racism are not a distraction, this IS THE ISSUE. This is everything, this is literally Life and death. There is no issue more important
I’m picking up on this sense that middle of the road white Americans now sense they have skin in the game. I would argue historically they have seldom had skin in the racism game - it wasn’t their problem or issue, Trump’s destructive politics is impacting them & their future now
Furthering this conversation from earlier, well clearly racism isn’t a disqualification for really rich guys who could care less behind their gated mansion walls if the country went up in flames
We have lost our moral authority as a country. This is about racism & resentment politics plan & simple. There is no bigger issue. & for those establishment Dems who argue this issue is a “distraction” from talking about real issues like healthcare, u are also part of the problem
Tamir Rice, 12 years-old black boy carrying a TOY GUN was percieved as a BLACK MAN carrying a GUN in an OPEN CARRY STATE of OHIO.
He was SHOT and KILLED by police.
It’s beyond trite at this point to categorize anything Trump does as a new low, but the President working against our congressional delegation in the international arena... new low. And it is beyond a new low, it is betrayal of country & our Democracy https://t.co/UU4AYnDNW9
