    So says immigrants make America “dirty & divided.” What a disturbing way to describe human beings. He then claims “No one makes the economic argument for mass immigration b/c it’s insane & indefensible.” This is a flat out lie. Thread /1

    Muslim Congresswomen and hit back at smear attacks by Saudi media. Looks like Arab monarchs already feel threatened by these women and their progressive agendas - for obvious reasons.

    Those threatened by the idea that people in a democracy will elect women like and I will continue to lash out. We will not back down. We’ve been standing up to bullies our whole lives.

    I have just canceled jobs we have posted with because they advertise with Tucker. This is nothing but bigotry and white supremacy.

    Kirstjen Nielsen went to a prep school where tuition costs more than what a family of 4 at the poverty line makes in a year. I'm sure she can't imagine what she would do if she had a child whose only fate was to live a life of desperate poverty, starve or be murdered by a gang.

    You know the horror movies where they say "the call is coming from inside the house?" The violence is coming from within the border. And we need to deal with it.

    We have to find the root causes of domestic terrorism. We need gun reform to keep innocents safe. We need to be honest about how social media has made it easier to radicalize young men. And we need to talk about how white supremacy, sexism & racism perpetuate the problem.

    So while the President protects the interests of the millionaire manufacturers of guns, he has done nothing to significantly protect our children, or any one else, from gun violence. Since that day at Sandy Hook in 2012, over 1,900 mass shootings have happened across the US.

    But instead of looking for ways to stop the rise of white supremacy, the President has only stoked the flames. He has called extremists "fine people" and illegally coordinated with the NRA, his biggest independent booster, to get himself elected.

    Even today, while mourning their loss, Sandy Hook had to be evacuated because of a bomb threat. They have faced constant retraumatization because of right-wing conspiracy theories.

    We know will justify anything under the guise of keeping us safe. But if he cared about our safety he would have woke up today, remembered , & the real threat to Americans: Domestic terrorism & gun violence— especially from the far right.
