Love @RealChalamet's gratitude for his public arts high school on the red carpet. It is SO important that we continue to support public education and to support our students. When we do, anything is possible! #Oscars
Coal is not coming back for the same reason VHS tape is not coming back. Superior technology & market forces crushed it.
We honor coal families by telling them the truth and transitioning them to other jobs, not by lying to them. https://t.co/Hghwmqilw6
@FIFAcom Sad that #FIFA allows #Burundi President to toy with domestic league... President Pierre Nkurunziza: Officials in jail after Burundi leader is 'roughed up' in game https://t.co/p12O8LfT67
@FIFAcom Embarassing for #FIFA that #Burundi President influences league this way. President Pierre Nkurunziza: Officials in jail after Burundi leader is 'roughed up' in game https://t.co/p12O8LfT67
BREAKING: Maryland is on the verge of passing a law requiring all Presidential candidates to release their past 5 years of tax returns in order to be placed on the election ballot. This means Trump would be required to do so in 2020 if he wants to try & earn Maryland's 10 votes!
All jokes aside, it is concerning that POTUS has such a profound lack of understanding about how trade, and the economy in general, work. https://t.co/OGn8Eufr3H
PS/ A Congressional censure can—and must—consider context and course of conduct. Any censure of the sort I imagine will establish Mr. Trump has a long history of racist comments about immigrants, from "Mexican rapists" to "Haitians with AIDS" to "Nigerian huts." Enough is enough.
5/ This is one of those situations in which Democrats have to move for censure of the president whether or not they have the votes to pass the measure, as the world is—and I mean this literally—intently watching what we do now. They're watching on TV, by radio, online, in print.
3/ Should Trump be censured by Congress for his "shithole" remark? Yes, because—besides being counter to American values in a way that undermines the Oath of Office Trump took—it makes the work of our soldiers, diplomats and NGOs abroad substantially more dangerous and difficult.
I wonder if people realize that, as recently as the 90s, calling dozens of other nations "shitholes" in a formal meeting of U.S. officials would have resulted in a president being censured by Congress—especially as the racist remark was preceded by comments about AIDS and "huts".
Don Lemon cut the mic off of a dude who was defending Trump’s racist comments by attacking Don, calling Don lazy & trying to talk over him. More Trump people should be cut off. And no on air at all. We need more people from #TheResistance on tv. @donlemon
