Someone very close to Putin once explained to me that Putin thinks that all Westerners can be bought. We have no values; only a price. Dmitriev's prominent role in drafting the latest "peace plan" underscores that Putin assessment. I hope Putin is wrong. I fear for some, he might be right.

Stop spending money at companies actively trying to hurt us.

Even for just 1 week, stop spending at Target, Amazon, and Home Depot & reroute spending to businesses that aren't tanking our democracy. #WeAintBuyingIt

Today’s launch of the @oversightdemocrats.house.gov Immigration Enforcement Dashboard is just the beginning.

We’re going to keep exposing Trump’s rogue ICE and the racist, horrific abuse happening in our communities and behind detention center walls.

So Maduro is a terrorist, but Putin isn't?

Netanyahu isn't?

Kim Jong Un or Erdogan?

Funny how Republicans and the media are avoiding such an obvious question.
This is a bs way for Trump to bypass a declaration of war.

Murder. The United States Navy and possibly other military branches as well as the intelligence community and West Wing staff all now implicated in murder. It cannot be permitted to define us. Impeachment is the only course until the DOJ and the Judge Advocates can free themselves from compromise
