Nooses have been found in ICE facilities of caged migrants. This is an emergency. An agency that has systematically and repeatedly commits human rights abuses cannot be reformed - it must be abolished. Child abuse is a bright red line. It should be for all of us.

New DHS report confirms horrifying details about family separations we reported this summer: - Kids in cages for days - Bad record keeping - Asylum seekers turned away Second report found *nooses* in cells of migrants. Joined @Morning_Joe @morningmika @JoeNBC with details.

About 80% of the men and women detained on Rikers have not been convicted of a crime. GOP Senators urge the presumption of Kavanaugh’s innocence. Where was that for Kalief Browder? In practice, the presumption of innocence is a luxury extended to the powerful and the wealthy.

here's how the Senators who've yielded their time to Prosecutor Mitchell voted on the 2013 Violence Against Women Act: Mr. Grassley: NAY Mr. Hatch: NAY Mr. Graham: NAY Mr. Cornyn: NAY Mr. Lee: NAY Mr. Cruz: NAY (it passed 78-22)

Mr. President, enough. A Supreme Court nomination is not worth more than the lives of survivors. There must be a full investigation of these allegations of criminal behavior, and Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination must be withdrawn.

US capitalism's post 1945 history: (1) shift tax burden off corporations & onto individuals; (2) shift it from rich to middle & lower income individuals, (3) cut funds for schools (94% of teachers use own money for supplies). Capitalism has its priorities! nyti.ms/2rRdB1l

Your #ThoughtsAndPrayers didn't work after Columbine, after Virginia Tech, after Umpqua, after Sandy Hook, after Oak Creek, after Charleston, after Aurora, after Isla Vista, after Parkland... You offer empty thoughts & hollow prayers while our kids die needlessly to gun violence

There are few issues more important to the security of the US than the potential spread of nuclear weapons or the potential for even more destructive war in the Middle East. Today’s decision to put the JCPOA at risk is a serious mistake. My full statement: facebook.com/barackobama/po…
