I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

You didn't get a vote. You got a "promise" of a vote. From a party who is disappearing nannies & gardeners and zip-tying children. A party who has flushed Due Process in America down the toilet. Who has subjugated its Congressional duties to an autocrat. That's what everybody sees, Tim.
Kaine on why he thinks just getting a vote on healthcare is a win: "We're the minority party, but everybody will get to see who is standing for them when it comes to lowering their healthcare costs"

Let White People Be the Face of Trump’s Hunger Crisis—Opinion
Black suffering has never moved this country to act. Maybe seeing white families skip meals will finally make us admit that food insecurity isn’t fate—it’s a choice politicians keep making.

Do not grow numb to Trump & Secretary Bourbon Breath using U.S. Military to kill innocent people with impunity. Trump has many associates in drug trafficking biz going back decades. This is not about national security, it’s a dangerous escalation from a very sadistic madman.
The President of the United States is basically posting snuff porn to his social media, gleefully sharing the murder of Venezuelans he calls narco terrorists. The dude literally had drug dealers living in Trump Tower and his son snorts more ya-yo than Scarface.
