The President of the United States trusts the word of a former KGB agent over the consensus of the American intelligence community backed by a ton of facts. That is a shocking reality. Everyone who excuses Trump’s behavior must answer that now, and when history inevitably judges.
@SenateMajLdr You put party before country once and set the precedent. Now, the McConnell law must be followed! I hope @SenBooker and @BobMenendezNJ will hold you accountable. No hearings on a nominee until after the election. #saveSCOTUS https://t.co/4S8ggHm7nz
With four months until Election Day and women’s rights on the line, President Trump can’t be allowed to make a SCOTUS appointment without the American people having a say at the ballot box. We must keep speaking out. #SaveSCOTUS
More than 450,000 Americans sit in jail today awaiting trial because they cannot afford to pay bail. Reforming our country's bail system should be a non-partisan issue.
Whether you sit in jail shouldn't be a function of your bank account.
We will not be responding to each childish, defamatory, disgusting &
false tweet by the President. The whole truth will come out in due
course. But the tweets confirm that he has corrupted the entire
process that led to Mr. McCabe’s termination and has rendered it
illegitimate.
Things I'm thankful for: Not having to commute in #NYC right now
- Delays & suspensions on LIRR, Metro North & NJ Transit
- NYC Ferry Suspended
- Upper level of Verrazano Bridge closed. No trucks on lower level
- Trucks not allowed on Throgs Neck, Whitestone & Triborough Bridges
Republicans are rushing to pass their disaster of a tax bill, so please keep up the calls, tweets, letters, emails. We need your voice now more than ever.
People like @AdyBarkan are what this fight against the #GOPTaxScam are all about. We can defeat this horrific piece of legislation, but only if everyone stands up and fights back.
Our extreme poverty rate is so high that it is an international concern. Why on earth are Republicans are trying to push through a $1.5 trillion tax cut for the very wealthiest, while 41 million Americans are living in poverty? This is a disgrace. https://t.co/m0oKpA5VqK
A reminder: Senate Republicans are trying to pass a tax bill that will leave millions of Americans uninsured and raise insurance prices, all so that they can slash taxes for billionaires and big corporations.
It’s up to all of us to speak out and stop it.
If the tax plan is passed, giving huge breaks to the 1% and raising the deficit $1.5 trillion, Republican leaders will rediscover "the deficit crisis" and move aggressively to cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
