NEW VIDEO: #TrumpsGreatWall *TURN SOUND UP*

Dear @realDonaldTrump

This video short highlights the complete failure of your border wall. Listen to your own words as you sell the BIGGEST FAILED PROMISE IN POLITICAL HISTORY!

Watch as people easily climb your fake "great" wall.

.@SenJeffMerkley @RonWyden - Nurses are counting on you to issue a federal OSHA emergency temporary standard to #ProtectNurses and to mandate that the president fully invokes the Defense Production Act to increase production for PPE. https://t.co/35ERpIxI4H

@JoeBiden Joe, more than gratitude, we need to put our money where our mouth is. There should be provisions in this trillions dollar bill to acknowledge they are risking their lives for us. There should be a life insurance payment to any of them that die of corona virus related illness.

We’ve already won the argument over guns. The vast majority of Americans want sweeping reforms.

We don’t need new arguments. We need new elected officials.

DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen separated thousands more children than previously reported. She's dangerous and has to go. Sign the petition to tell @SecNielsen to resign: https://t.co/tnclmzPkK7 via @CREDOMobile https://t.co/F2SnLPr31Q

Melania Trump flew on a government plane today to go on vacation at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort. Trump cancels the government plane for the Speaker’s trip to Afghanistan to visit with troops. This is what corruption looks like. The definition of it. In so many ways. Abuse of power.

Next time we have a gov shutdown, Congressional salaries should be furloughed as well.

It’s completely unacceptable that members of Congress can force a government shutdown on partisan lines & then have Congressional salaries exempt from that decision.

Have some integrity.

Sign on in solidarity with people of Pittsburgh who have taken a clear moral stand. Tell @POTUS he is not welcome in your community due to his policies that promote bigotry and violence. https://t.co/LlEQopLEW9

To the man who assaulted me in the basement of that house decades ago:
I learned this week that there is no statute of limitations for felony sexual assault in Montgomery County, MD.

I sincerely hope your nights will be as sleepless as mine as I consider my next steps. /end

We will know if you people in Congress are really for "The People" - or if you are only for certain people in your socio-economic class. Rapists seek victims outside of their class -- that is how they have been getting away with it for generations. No More!

[casey @casey_connects]

To our elected representatives:
- rape is non-partisan
- sexual assault survivors are watching you
- our children are watching you.
Are you sure that rape is the hill you want to die on? 11/

Private prisons are degenerate. Using the profit motive to lock people up. Disgusting and UN-American. I believe they must be unconstitutional also.

[April Dauenhauer @AprilinOregon]

My generation had fire drills at school - this generation has GUNfire drills at school. Wake up America - guns are not making us safe.

[April Dauenhauer @AprilinOregon]

Do we feel safer now? Help! I see an assault and - oh no - the perp is a cop!

If your stock portfolio includes Microsoft you are profiting off Trump's intolerable deportation policies. Demand change - or divest.

[April Dauenhauer @AprilinOregon]

Tech companies like @Microsoft are equipping ICE with high-tech tools to help tear apart families. It’s time to demand a tech mutiny from Trump’s deportation machine. https://t.co/NTkfCwKX0g

@AlexHortonTX I'm the granddaughter of an immigrant who received US citizenship for enlisting in WWI. His death some years later was a consequence of his service. I am proud of him and of all our immigrant volunteers. Canceling this program will harm our armed forces in too many ways to count

[April Dauenhauer @AprilinOregon]

"There was no collusion"... Seriously?

For the first time since it happened, State Dept didn’t put out a statement commemorating the downing of MH17, even though a statement, criticizing Russia, was drafted https://t.co/5Gp0wYRQwX

[Kurt Eichenwald @kurteichenwald]

Unbelievable. Although nothing is unbelievable anymore.

Republicans refuse to approve funding for cyber security upgrades to protect voting systems from attack.

They have money for baby cages & an ego-based military parade. But protecting democracy? Too expensive for them.
