I was the Chief of Staff for @JoeBiden on the 2012 reelection and traveled around the country with him. He empowered women on his staff and was alway supportive of us. Not only did fight for women through the policies he advocated, he treated women on his team with full respect.
Like a gambler who can’t get up from the table, Trump’s life has been defined by manic overreaching whenever he feels he’s on top https://t.co/4VeObza0Li

Joe Biden invading the personal space of females?
It isn't just Biden.
Older white men - you do not own the personal space of females.
I don't think it's malevolent but it is a mindset of our past, not our future.
Sanders invading space:

I think we all learn not listening to others is as important as listening to ourselves as we grow. It isn’t easy, but bullies prey on our own inner bullies, so being proud diffuses the bully inside of us. I’m proud of you. You’re allowed to love yourself. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻bravo.
I was bullied for being Iranian as a kid. But I never felt ashamed of my ethnicity. I came out on 8/17/2001 & while it hasn’t always been easy, I have always been proud of who I am. I’m Iranian, gay, and Catholic. Perhaps an odd combo, but I wouldn’t change who I am for the world
The Parque Zoologico Prudencio Navarro in #Spain was shut down two months ago for animal abuse. All the animals, including this starving #lion, have been abandoned. The owners won't rehome them. RT to urge federal govt to sieze and save the animals. They need help now! RT
If you’re a charter school that discriminates against LGBTQ students, Betsy DeVos will fund you.
But if you’re a child with disabilities who wants to compete in the Special Olympics, tough luck.
We can’t let such courageous kids be devastated by such repugnant priorities.
I say this to the President, and his defenders in Congress:
You may think it’s okay how Trump and his associates interacted with Russians during the campaign.
I don’t.
I think it’s immoral. I think it’s unethical. I think it’s unpatriotic. And yes, I think it’s corrupt.
Betsy DeVos has called for drastic cuts, one of which jumped out at me: $51 million in cuts to programs for Autism.
My son will graduate next month with a Bs in Engineering. Without the assistance we got from public schools, I’m not sure I could say that.
My son is autistic.
“These children have the right to be safe in their hospitals, schools and homes. But time after time, we see a complete disregard by all warring parties in #Yemen for the basic rules of war," said @carolynsave #NotATarget#STOPTHEWARONCHILDREN
Today, a hospital we support in Yemen was bombed. 7 people, including 4 children lost their lives
We’re shocked & appalled by this attack. Children and hospitals are #NotATarget. Warring parties MUST adhere to international laws and #StoptheWaronChildren. https://t.co/mWmbVjfH85
Puerto Rico’s Gov. Rossello hits back: “The comments attributed to Donald Trump today by senators from his own party are below the dignity of a sitting President of the United States. They continue to lack empathy, are irresponsible, regrettable and, above all, unjustified.”
If you want $$$ justgive him a golf course and a hotel. Let Jared meet some Russians or Arab Princes. Give ivanka a few sweatshops for her clothing lines. Also, cut some taxes on the rich, he really loves that.
