WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people

really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

President Obama shedding a tear while Aretha just killed it while singing for all of you - so many emotions felt at home through the screen.

Thankful for that time - and for your genius. I know we’ll get back there one day - missing it all like crazy right now.

My family called them Welsh Cookies too. The first of only two times I’ve attempted them (also in cast iron) I nearly burnt the house down. Maybe 3rd times the charm?

Thanks for the inspo!

When the winner of the Nobel peace prize smuggled herself over the water and out of Venezuela to attend the ceremony in Oslo this week, her allies called the Pentagon to ask them not to arbitrarily murder her. www.wsj.com/world/americ...

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released.

“And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

Remember when Amazon held a sale during Independent Bookstore Day in an effort to undercut indie bookstores?

We didn’t forget. Support local bookstores during Small Business Saturday and beyond.

Today, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to use all of the funding at its disposal to fully fund SNAP benefits this month.

Not $0, not $12, not half, but 100%.

I say to President Trump: obey this court order NOW. Do not allow 16 million children to go hungry.

Get loud dodger fans - a one run game is easy to flip.

I haven’t yet. And unfortunately wasn’t able to attend the after-march call for next steps, but heard a number of speakers call for that; wondered if that’s what’s coming next. I think most people are looking for a unified front when it comes to next steps and so far that’s been a little lacking.

I like that and have def participated so far. Was saddened to see some companies on that ballroom list. Maybe we work off that list next? Checking to see when my current phone is paid off… might be time for a switch

Congress established an emergency fund to ensure that millions of Americans on SNAP continue to receive nutrition assistance when funding expires in November.

Mr. President: Don’t let kids go hungry. Use these emergency funds to feed low-income families.

So are we at the National Strike moment yet? Asking for a friend.

This is crazy. This is like someone from Mexico unilaterally deciding there is a person on a private boat coming to Catalina who is maybe doing something illegal and just blowing them up.

Why isn’t Congress, the Joint Chiefs, the military, or anyone else speaking up about it and stopping it!?

It is a very short step from the military killing alleged drug traffickers off the coast of Venezuela to the military, ICE, or others killing people inside the US for crimes, real or imagined, as directed by the president.
