Earlier this year the people at 60 Minutes urged me to overcome fear and speak on camera about what it's like being a lawyer being targeted by Trump. When I did, they lavished me with praise -- noting I was the only person willing to do it.

Now it is their turn to show courage.

Another mass shooting—this time at Brown University. When Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban was in place, mass shooting deaths dropped by 43%. After George W. Bush and Republicans let it expire, deaths skyrocketed by 239%.

It’s the guns. No more thoughts and prayers.” They don’t stop bullets.

This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.
instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

The U.S. just blew up a small boat off Venezuela.

No trial. No warning. No proof offered beyond “we suspected.”

11 people dead.

This is what it looks like when a president claims the power to kill on suspicion alone.

This is why we need accountability before we face another tragedy.

Horrified.
