Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.

🧵 U.S. wants Ukraine to sign a framework of the deal by next Thursday, threatening to cut intel and weapons.
Few things:
Weapons are bought by Europe.
Intel is shared as part of a global network.
What if EU dared to say - we SHALL NOT BUY from the US and we SHALL NOT share our intel with you?

If over 97% of immigrants rounded up & detained (chicago) DO NOT have a criminal record this doesnt not meet the promise of deporting CRIMINAL immigrants. Right?
Compare that to over 1,600 pardoned crimes by President.

Details Of DHS Agreement Reveal Risks Of Trump Administration’s Use Of Social Security Data For Voter Citizenship Checks
This story was originally published by ProPublica. Republished under a CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 license. This year, when states began using an expanded Department of Homeland Security system to check their voter rolls for noncitizens, it was supposed to validate the Trump administration’s push to harness data from across federal agencies to expose illicit voting and stiffen immigration enforcement. DHS had recently incorporated confidential data from the Social Security Administration on hundreds of millions of additional people into the tool, known as the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements, or SAVE, system.
