Houlahan: "I'm just continually stunned by the fact the commander in chief, the president, has called for my death. And that's something that should be chilling for everybody, and everybody should be worried about their safety in this nation when the president can yield that sort of statement."

Thanks to Rachel Maddow for covering the Remove the Regime event taking place this week. Tomorrow’s schedule begins at 10:00 a.m. with a rally at Flare, followed by what organizers anticipate will be record-breaking direct lobbying for impeachment and removal.

Did Congress take back a little bit of their power tonight? Are they beginning to see that they don't have to bend to the will of a dictator? I'm not sure. But I have always wondered why members of the GOP would not stand up before.

Two weeks ago I officiated a lovely wedding in a local park. Afterwards, one of the witnesses asked for a ride to the bus. He said he was afraid of #ICE. After I dropped him off, I cried all the way home. We must not stand Idly by and watch these terrorists kidnap people off our streets.

Here we all are on a Sunday, seeking balance in our lives to counter the pressures. There are giant yellow maple leaves decorating our neighborhood today. Good people here in Oregon are helping locals who fear for their safety. And our Senators are working for the good of the whole. #gratitude
