World Central Kitchen, founded by @chefjoseandres, provides on-the-ground aid during humanitarian crises.

The org currently operates in Gaza, where supply shortages have forced them to innovate.

Their CEO & director of emergency response join @brikeilarcnn & @jessicadean.

“Gazans are our family. We may get exhausted, but this is our duty.” – Ahmed, Relief Truck Driver from Egypt

WCK has dispatched almost 1,000 trucks into Gaza since the Rafah crossing reopened—each one is packed with the supplies to provide 11,000 meals a day. #ChefsForThePeople

[Chef José Andrés 🕊️🥘🍳 @chefjoseandres]

Join me in standing in solidarity with Iranian women and girls.

The oppressive Islamic Republic of Iran’s regime should not be on the UN Commission on the Status for Women.

Add your voice to this open letter to demand #IRIoffCSW: https://t.co/prSq3n9Qm8

Today, I'm proud to stand with so many around the world in solidarity with the courageous women and girls in Iran. Your protests have inspired us.

Climate change impacts all of us —every living thing on Earth. We’re working with @ConservationOrg to restore grasslands and forests in Kenya. These habitats reduce carbon, protecting the livelihoods of the Maasai people and local elephant populations.🌍 https://t.co/bwW61vqxHV

"I have received information from multiple U.S. Government officials that the President is using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election."

Every American should read this whistleblower complaint. https://t.co/9Mk6kLNsIL

President Donald Trump meets with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in New York.

[James Comey @Comey]

After last night’s rally, it is important to remember we once had a President who spoke these words: “Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly, and leave the rest to God.” Ronald Reagan

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

Today’s to-do list:

1. Call your senators to demand they oppose Kavanaugh
2. Call your senators to demand they oppose Kavanaugh
3. Ask a friend to call their senators, too
4. Call your senators to demand they oppose Kavanaugh

Seriously. Don’t stop calling: [phone]

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

The stakes of the vote on Kavanaugh? Deciding whether we’re a country that listens to and believes women.

Each of my colleagues in the Senate needs to determine if women’s voices, traumas and stories matter to them. I’ve made my decision.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The antidote to government by a powerful few is government by the organized, energized many. This National Voter Registration Day, make sure you're registered, vote early if you can, or show up on November 6. This moment is too important to sit out.

Charles, a Koch brother in Wichita, said he was pleasantly surprised that his pay went up $26,923,076 a week... he said [that] will more than cover the cost of buying several more Paul Ryans.

[Chris Cillizza @ChrisCillizza]

A member of Donald Trump’s inner circle — in the campaign and the White House has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his dealings with the Russian ambassador.

That is a HUGE deal.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

Extraordinary to see Gen. Flynn, the National Security Adviser just ten months ago, striding into a federal courthouse to plead guilty to lying to the FBI.
A sober and awesome reminder that we are, indeed, a nation of laws and not of men.

[Claire McCaskill @clairecmc]

This is so bad. We have just gotten list of amendments to be included in bill NOT from our R colleagues, but from lobbyists downtown. None of us have seen this list, but lobbyists have it. Need I say more? Disgusting. And we probably will not even be given time to read them.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

In my long career in politics, I have not seen a more regressive piece of legislation, so devoid of a rationale, so ill-suited for the condition of the country, so removed from the reality of what the American people need.

[Chris Hayes @chrislhayes]

Hardly needs to be said at this point, but if any of this had happened with Hillary Clinton in the WH, she would quite literally have been impeached by now.
