This Veterans Day, let us recommit to ensuring all of America’s veterans get the proper physical and mental health care they need to re-enter to civilian life.

There's nothing "America First" about taking the word of KGB colonel over US intelligence community. There's no "principled realism" in cooperating w/ Russia to prop up murderous Assad regime. To believe otherwise is naive & places nat'l security at risk. https://t.co/SYiVHtHXPX

Can we at least mention that the Senate Judiciary voted to put a blogger w/no legal experience on the federal bench for life?

[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

Things we're not talking about:
* Kushner and Ivanka's use of private email while in WH
* transferring said accounts to Trump org servers
* 4 green berets killed in Niger
* hundreds dying in Puerto Rico
* 60% w/out electricity in Puerto Rico on Day 51
and so many more.

Today is a good day to listen to what black women are saying (and have been saying for a long time) about R. Kelly

Just so we’re 100% clear: the senate race in Alabama is between a man who prosecuted members of KKK & a pedophile.

This shouldn’t be hard, yet here we are.

[Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal]

When four women say a guy molested them as young girls and 30 sources confirm those stories & GOP members continue to say they are waiting for "proof"--that is outrageous. Roy Moore needs to go. GOP members should be telling him that.

The Senate Judiciary Committee has approved a federal judge from Alabama who has never tried a case and was rated “not qualified” by the Bar Association. https://t.co/TK1mzu2V4i

If your first response during times like this is "well why didn't you come forward sooner" instead of being fucked up by how so many traumatized women carry their burdens in silence then you're a piece of shit
