I thought my protest days were over after Vietnam, Watergate, Roe v Wade, and the women’s movement. I was wrong. But I’m tired. Love dogs and books.

If you can't stand up for a fellow journalist when she's being ridiculously bullied and demeaned for asking a basic question of a public leader, you sure as hell aren't going stand up for anything as abstract as a national principle or ethos.

NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.
This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.

Q: Trump said specifically Republicans should 'take over' elections in 15 states. What did he mean?
LEAVITT: With the passage of the SAVE Act, voter ID will be implemented across all 50 states. He was referring to specific states in which we've seen a high degree of fraud like California & New York
