This man is a hero. Ahmed Al Ahmed.
The man who neutralized a terrorist in Sydney by taking his weapon was a 43-year-old Ahmed Al Ahmed, the owner of a fruit shop in Sutherland. During the confrontation with the terrorists, Ahmed was shot twice in the arm, but he continued to fight

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

It is so strange to me to see so few people understand that part of what makes child sexual assault such a heinous crime is not just that their bodies have not fully developed but also that there is a horrific power imbalance and that we as a society have failed to protect them. 5 or 15.

Trump take Thanksgiving—the food on the table AND the means to travel to families.
So to keep it simple …
Trump is ruining Thanksgiving bc he wants to deny affordable healthcare to millions of Americans (while letting millions of kids go hungry).

TAPPER: Do you have any numerical idea of how many Americans will not be able to be with their families for Thanksgiving because of this?
DUFFY: I think the number is going to be substantial

Abortion is health care — but it’s also about bodily autonomy, self-determination, and the right to shape our own futures.
Trans people are in a parallel, interconnected fight.

Retired Army Sgt. Brian Wofford spoke to me this morning at the Oklahoma City #NoKings protest. Didn’t expect him to be carrying his DD214 so I asked some warmup questions like when he got out and whether his injury was service-related.
He paused while describing the car bomb in Iraq to say this:

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.
