How can Trump ram a wall through wildlife refuges, indigenous cultural sites and federally designated endangered species habitat? Simple: he waived these 41 laws:

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act

The Endangered Species Act /1

Dreamers have contributed so much to our country, and they are risking their lives fighting on the frontlines of this pandemic. They deserve permanent immigration status and a pathway to citizenship—as they are Americans in every way but on paper. https://t.co/e4IYqX3WIy

@ShekarAnita @jharna_kamath @TravelGov @StateDept @AmericanAir @JetBlue @Delta @united @EasternAirways @realDonaldTrump @GregAbbott_TX I’m considering making a Facebook group to connect as many of us here in Quito as possible— would you be interested? And if so, could you DM your facebooks?

really saddening to see our own government blaming us for this situation instead of making an effort to help us get home.

update: the mayor of guayaquil has blocked all incoming/leaving flights. quito airport is basically shut down, allowing a couple of flights evacuating citizens of the EU to leave before the EU closes its borders at the end of this week.

@RepKirkpatrick @SenMcSallyAZ @kyrstensinema @SenatorSinema we don’t need your privacy statements, we need you to publicly pressure the federal government/state dept to take action and evacuate the thousands of Americans stranded around the world.

[channing @chnandlers]

@_kashiii_ @chancetherapper @sabaPIVOT @LouisTheChild even just a tweet at the state dept calling on them to help stranded Americans abroad would help. thank you!! stay safe and healthy 💓

@ShekarAnita @jharna_kamath @TravelGov @StateDept @AmericanAir @JetBlue @Delta @united @EasternAirways @realDonaldTrump @GregAbbott_TX hey y’all, we’re trying to figure out about how many americans are stuck in quito in hopes that we can advertise a headcount and get the government’s attention. dm me here or on insta (chnandlers) and let’s work together to make something happen

[channing @chnandlers]

@USembassyEC What about people in Quito?? Interprovincial travel is forbidden so we have no way of getting to Guayaquil. DO SOMETHING TO HELP EVERYONE PLEASE.
