We protest in many different ways. What's important is that we do something consistently.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Progress!
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

I'm so proud to be among the 1000+ #NorthwesternUniversity alumni who sent a "Standing Up to Bullies" letter to the university President and Board of Trustees. Alumni must not be silent. We must take a stand for what we believe in, especially when it's difficult.

Put out, on your personal Social Media, that the Republican regime is arguing that they don't have to obey judge's orders. It's surprising how many people don't know that.

Today the Trump administration upped the ante by overtly treating federal judicial orders as optional. Once these thugs apply the same approach to the United States Supreme Court, expect the political shit to hit the fan.

"They own what happens"
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.
