Watch as Rep. Al Green, Democrat of Texas, stood to protest during President Trump's speech to a joint session of Congress and was thrown out of the House chamber. Green said his protest was “worth it to let people know that there are some people who are going to stand up” to Trump. nyti.ms/3QIcTP0

1/3. It should be astonishing, though it’s not, that the American negotiators want to begin from the premise that Russia was right and that Ukraine is not sovereign. Accepting the lies of the aggressor isn’t just unethical, it’s also unstrategic.

“$20 trillion to the debt” — all to cut taxes for the rich, while gutting health care for poor folks. A massive transfer of wealth.
