ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.
No one knows why he was detained.

Friday's Oval Office betrayal was to create a pretext for this move. As long as Trump is in office, America will be on Putin's side.

Now that English is the official language of the United States, I look forward to everyone understanding the difference between “your” and “you’re,” “their” and “they’re,” and “to,” “two” and “too.”

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now.
Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings.
I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them.
Get local media there.
Make it real.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We owe unwavering support to 9/11 survivors and first responders.
I'm proud to join Senator Gillibrand, Senator Schumer, and my NY colleagues in fighting to fund the WTCHP in perpetuity.
Supporting these heroes should never be partisan. No 9/11 survivors should worry about health care.

After announcing the obliteration of the Washington Post’s editorial page that morning, he had dinner that night with Donald Trump. 👉

And you will never in a million years guess whom Bezos had dinner with, shortly after he made the right-wing swing on his editorial page.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.
