To state the obvious: diplomacy with North Korea (good!) in *no way* requires a 24 hour media tour filled with constant praise for the toughness, management style, leadership abilities, dynamic personality and caring heart of the dictator of totalitarian prison state.

@jmichaeloconnor Trump even admitted there were points meant to be in the "document" but weren't included because they didn't have time. I never claimed to be an "authority"; you don't need to be an authority to listen and read.

#NetNeutrality protections end today because House Republicans refused to act. Congress still has the power to restore a free and open Internet for all.
I signed the discharge petition to force a vote. Call your Representative and ask them to do the same: 202-224-3121.
Honest question: Why wouldn’t we automatically register people to vote at 18 and why shouldn’t you be allowed to vote in any election you want to thereafter?
The spirit of voting and democracy is all throughout the Constitution and the amendments.
