Seeing more and more photos from around the US #handsoff protests yesterday; there are few times I miss the US, but this is one of them. Protect Democracy! #noking

Proud & relieved to see large scale #handsoff protests happening around the US today. As a US citizen abroad in a place where protesting could get me into trouble, I’m reminded of the rights that cannot be taken for granted.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Not a historian, but to my knowledge, this is the first time a sitting US Senator — or member of Congress, generally — or perhaps any senior US gov’t official — has included an f-bomb in an official press release. www.duckworth.senate.gov/news/press-r...

If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you. If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you. If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you. We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.

Rubio is perhaps the most egregious example of hypocrisy in this hostile takeover of the USG: He had presented as one of the more knowledgeable, humane, & professional participants, only to renege on his principles to enable a destructive foreign policy.
