6 people have died from a nationwide listeria outbreak.

31 babies have been hospitalized with botulism from contaminated baby formula.

Instead of firing crucial FDA employees & attacking the agency, Trump should be hiring more experts to crack down on these dangerous outbreaks.

Comey: "I'm grateful the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence & incompetence... I was inspired by the career people who refused to be part of this travesty. It cost some of them their jobs, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price"

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

They want us to get cancer & die.
The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

The House passed a resolution condemning socialism. Okay.

When are they going to pass a resolution condemning fascism?

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

It’s hard to decide which is more disturbing—that the president of the United States thinks that being disliked is a mitigating factor in the murder of a journalist; or that he considers reporters who ask questions he doesn’t like to be “insubordinate.” www.thebulwark.com/p/push-back-...

It’s long past time for the Fourth Estate to challenge the president’s unhinged hostility and unbridled misogyny.

This entire nation is not well, because in the highest position of leadership, we have one of the most amoral, lawless, vile, hateful human beings to ever walk the planet: a man devoid of decency, bereft of empathy, and allergic to truth...

Over the weekend, I gathered with thousands of people from every corner of this nation for ‘Remove the Regime,’ a rally calling for the impeachment, conviction, and removal of Donald Trump.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Impeachment isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent.

Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...

I'm not sure whether to say this because I'm afraid people will think it's a joke. But.

I keep thinking that if the US invades Venezuela, almost immediately on getting in it will try to set up camps and "deport" people from America for indefinite imprisonment there. It will be Camp X-Ray again

The last time America attempted regime change to lower the price of oil it embroiled us in a war for two decades

And that’s just ONE of the many, many reasons not to attack Venezuela

The criminality of extrajudicially killing thousands of innocent civilians would be another

I thought he forgot about it, Darn it.
We’re about to invade Venezuela because trump wants their oil. No other reason. The airspace has been cleared. Embassies are being evacuated. Flights are being canceled.

He’s going to kill people for oil.

ICE started holding people at the Fort Bliss, El Paso location in late July/early August. It is now the largest detention center in the country.
