For thirty-six years, Richard Lugar proved that pragmatism and decency work—not only in Washington but all over the world. Michelle and I send our warmest sympathies to his family and all those who had the privilege of knowing this American statesman.

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

The Post's Fact Checker database has been updated with President Trump's weekend remarks. He has surpassed 10,000 false claims during his presidency. https://t.co/lwtGYLGEdb

I think it's safe to say that most Americans are more afraid of White Americans with semi-automatic assault rifles than they are of unarmed immigrants coming over the border looking for asylum and taking jobs that most Americans won't work.

Just saying...

[Andrew—#IAmTheResistance @AmoneyResists]

No Democrat anywhere supports infanticide

Or open borders

Or antisemitism

Or taking away all guns

Or doing away with cows/planes

Or letting non-citizens vote

Or authoritarian socialism

Or any other ridiculous claim that Trump & the @GOP make because all they have is lies.

[Brian Fallon @brianefallon]

Christine Blasey Ford bravely took questions from an outside lawyer because Republicans insisted on it. But now the Attorney General of the United States is afraid of being questioned by staff lawyers about the Mueller report?

If Barr's a no-show, put his name plate on the table in front of a chair. Vote to issue a subpoena. Then Dems use their time to read: (1) each misleading statement from Barr letter v. actual report; and (2) facts (not analysis) from Vol. II. Don't waste time responding to GOP.

Synagogue shooting:Lori Gilbert Kaye was killed taking bullets for Rabbi Goldstein to save his life. 19yr old stormed in, said ‘F*ck the Jews’ & opened fire. Others injured include 8yr old Noya Dahan. She asked for her picture to be shared & for everyone to know she is strong.

To recap, during the @NRA’s annual meeting this weekend:
* Financial misconduct allegations
* Maria Butina sentenced
* Oliver North resigned
* Coup to oust Wayne LaPierre
* NRA Board's external counsel suspended
* New York AG opened investigation into tax exempt status #NRAAM

In response to Trump’s truly terrifying rant on abortion last night - please read and share this thread to combat these fabricated but terrifying and gruesome lies he is spreading

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

Trump lies. This one is not a close call or misunderstanding. Any elected officials who lacks the courage to call out this fearmongering & deceit also lacks the qualifications to serve. Every last one of them should be voted out, along with Trump.

[Caroline Orr Bueno, Ph.D @RVAwonk]

Holy hell. Trump just told the crowd at his Wisconsin rally that after women give birth, the baby is "wrapped in a blanket" and then "the mother and the doctor decide whether to execute the baby."

[Peter Daou @peterdaou]

This is suddenly getting very curious.

Republicans are now conceding that Florida's elections systems were infiltrated in 2016.

For years, the standard deflection point was that Russians didn't tamper with votes, they just "did a bunch of Facebook ads."

What's going on here?

If we’re still playing this game: He congratulated the white guy who’s the number 2 draft pick, but not the black guy who’s the number 1 pick.

[Maxine Waters @RepMaxineWaters]

Outrage! Judge Day ordered release of a white supremacist who threatened to kill me, Speaker Pelosi, Leader Schumer, Rep. AOC, Rep. Omar, pres candidates, & journalists! 15 guns found in his home & he has ties to other neo-Nazis. Why is Barr silent? What must we do? My statement:

[Sleeping Giants @slpng_giants]

Found with 1000 rounds of ammo and 14 firearms.

Is an avowed Nazi.

Threatened to kill over a dozen lawmakers.

Released.

That’s called White Supremacist Privilege.

[ACLU @ACLU]

BREAKING: We just won a nationwide preliminary injunction blocking Trump’s attacks on the Title X family planning program.

This is a victory for all Americans — especially for patients who turn to Title X. We will not stop fighting for everyone’s right to get the care they need.

The FBI will meet with Sen. Rick Scott in the next few weeks to discuss Russia’s hack on at least one Florida county during the 2016 election. https://t.co/30JvAP5j6t
