I'm deeply disturbed by the terrorist attack that killed at least 26 people in Kashmir. There is no place for this kind of abhorrent violence. I offer my condolences to those grieving this tragic loss and pray that those injured recover quickly.

📌URGENT: The Associated Press is one of the foremost news operations in the world. Without it, most media entities could not survive.

📌Well, the AP has now been barred from the White House.
I'd suggest very strongly that any media that gets its news from AP takes a damn stand here in solidarity.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

The “male at conception” nonsense on the White House official page is SENDING ME.

There is no such thing as “male at conception”—ALL zygotes start out female. That’s why men have nipples.

We look RIDICULOUS to the rest of the world even more than we did before.

America is a laughing stock.
