Last week, Tulsi Gabbard said “any unauthorized release of classified information is a violation of law and will be treated as such.”
By the Trump admin’s own “standards”everyone on this chain would lose their access to classified info and be subject to criminal investigation.

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Wow- Himes during a heated exchange w/Will Cain on Fox: "I'm not gonna listen to to you tell me that this about a partisan advantage...it is by the grace of God that we don't have dead pilots right now...it makes me want to throw up to hear you turn this into a partisan issue. You just need to stop"

Because my home state senators are complicit to the coup, I'll highlight @ossoff.senate.gov and applaud his directness and courage today.

SULLIVAN: “I do not care about the economy if the government claims it can break down anyone's doors, seize anyone with no due process, put them on a plane, and send them to a foreign jail… that is fundamental to this country.” 🇺🇸

It's a tragedy on many fronts...
The US invasion of Iraq began on this day 22 years ago.
In the years since, the United States spent roughly $10 trillion on the so-called "war on terror."
Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds in climate, health care, housing, and education?

I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall.
I will never bow down.

This is what bravery looks like, @schumer.senate.gov.
It is one thing to watch a dictator grab power.
It is another to hand it to him.
I’m headed to the Senate floor now.
To cast an emphatic “no.”

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.

Schumer’s decision is an unconscionable surrender that shows he does not have what it takes to meet this moment, and the charade he pulled yesterday makes it even worse. Time for new leadership in the Democratic Party.
