Countries that support the international order that the U.S. helped cultivate since World War II, that are committed to democracy and the rule of law, that seek peace, stability and prosperity in the world must at this moment view this US admin not as a faltering ally but as an active opponent.

This is, in no uncertain terms, a rout. The New York Times published an unfortunate op-ed trying to legally justify Trump administration's #Birthright citizenship order. Here, five leading scholars show, with analytic precision, how that op-ed was "fundamentally flawed and irresponsible."⬇️

I see a lot of trans folks scared that we're going to be exterminated right now. And you're right that they're going to try. So I want to say this: they tried before, from 1981-1989. And for most of you, every moment of queer joy you've ever had came in the shadow of that last effort to kill us.

Wow. Mike Lawler met with the Westchester County Legislature today and when JOSE ALVARADO - an elected County Legislator and Vice Chair - brought up concerns about ICE, Lawler actually wondered out loud whether Alvarado was a citizen or not! #NY17

SICKENING!!! My congressman, Mike Lawler, questioned the citizenship status of José Alvarado, a Latino county official, at a public meeting when he asked what documentation "somebody that looks like me" should provide if stopped by ICE. Alvarado has lived here since 1982. Lawler was born in 1986.
