The people of D.C. should not be ruled by a tyrant. This is intimidation without representation.
Remember last year when the South Korean president tried 2 declare martial law in a blatant power grab, was immediately opposed by both parties, impeached, suspended, removed from office, & ultimately arrested this year for leading an insurrection?
Just reminding everyone in case we've forgotten.
Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, theyβve failed β in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.

Required by Congress, the reports no longer single out things like rigged elections or sexual violence against children as human rights violations.

Reports reveal that men have impersonated ICE agents to kidnap, sexually assault, and terrorize women β exploiting the anonymity created by masked, plainclothes enforcement. This dangerous gap in accountability has put vulnerable communities at risk. #AbuseofPowerWatch
Every activated Guardsman has a family, a job, school, or something that they are leaving to do their duty.
Itβs one thing when itβs a warβ¦ or a real mass civil disturbance, which those only last a few days.
But to rip these people from their lives for a show⦠is awful.

NEW β Video taken by a witness and shared with me tonight from DCβs Trinidad neighborhood shows FBI and Secret Service agents patrolling by foot and peering into cars with flashlights.
(Per witness, residents made fun of agents, saying they can't get women and that's why they were doing this lol)
I was born an underdog. 21 surgeries by the age of 12 for spina bifida. A kid wearing goodwill hand-me-downs. I knew nothing would come easy, but I never doubted my right to the American dream.
Now, I'm running for the U.S. Senate to make sure all Iowans have a shot at theirs.
Screen reads The study, opens new tab, which was funded by the Danish government and published in July in the Annals of Internal Medicine, analyzed nationwide registry data for more than 1.2 million children over more than two decades. It did not find evidence that exposure to aluminum in vaccines had caused an increased risk for autoimmune, atopic or allergic, or neurodevelopmental disorders. The work is by far the best available evidence on the question of the safety of aluminum in vaccines, said Adam Finn, a childhood vaccination expert in the UK and pediatrician at the University of Bristol, who was not involved in the study.
Kennedy is throwing a fit because a large well designed study contradicts him.
What would it take to help him see the errors of his ways?
Sadly I donβt think heβll learn. We need him removed from office.

To wit, I recall South Park's Principal Victoria and her speech to Wendy when confronting Cartman's harassment. "When there's a 'cancer', you have to fight it. You can't reason with cancer, you can't wish it away. Cancer doesn't play by the rules, so neither should you."

4/ Make sure you know the facts. Make sure you share the facts with others in your circle. American democracy depends on us. Donβt listen to people who tell you that you canβt make a difference, this is our moment and our generationβs fight for democracy.

1/ When Donald Trump declared a public safety emergency in Washington, D.C. Monday, taking control of the Metropolitan Police & announcing his intent to bring the National Guard in to help, the rules that apply everywhere else were not in play.

FACT: Hitler and the Nazi Party repeatedly exaggerated or outright fabricated crime and unrest in order to justify taking over policing powers, centralizing control, and dismantling democratic safeguards.

Developers have to monitor their "motivations" or risk alienating their core customer base. When a game is released that is an obvious money-grab (Diablo III for example), players do get upset.

Trump is planning a rapid response military force to deploy domestically against Americans to crush their First Amendment right to protest.
Suppression of civil liberties, politicization of the military, and a disregard for laws are hallmarks of authoritarianism.
Pay attention.

NEW: In June, ProPublica reported that the FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to send drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants the agency had banned.
Today, weβre publishing a list of those exempted drugs.
