REP. OMAR after being attacked with liquid: “We will continue! These fucking assholes are not gonna get away with this! Here is the reality people like this ugly man don’t understand — we are Minnesota Strong. We’ll stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us.”

The moral disgrace comes from refusing to recognize that those bearing little or no similarity to us deserve respect, care, and defense simply because they are human — regardless of whether we might suffer the same fate.

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

I totally get the sentiment, but we gotta stop guilting people for not advocating or being activists the way we want them to.
Some people cannot speak up right now out of safety for various reasons and we are not owed an explanation.
If you can advocate, you do it for those who can’t.

There's no ICE accountability without ending qualified immunity.
They're murdering people. There won't be justice for the lives they've stolen, but there must be accountability.
My bill with @markey.senate.gov would ensure families can sue the agents murdering their loved ones.

Great article that can't be captured in a headline.
No one knows the reason behind Donald Trump's U-turn on Greenland.
But EU leaders learned a lesson: "When Europe is not divided, when we stand together and when we are clear and strong ... then the results will show."
