As Attorney General, Jeff Sessions did not miss an opportunity to criminalize and terrorize people of color. In this thread, we’ll take you through the 25 ways he did so:

1. Sessions sabotaged the 2020 census by helping Wilbur Ross add a new question about immigration status.
2. Sessions asked Congress to eliminate the DOJ’s Community Relations Service, which is dedicated to addressing racial tensions and preventing hate crimes.
3. Sessions’ DOJ urged the Supreme Court to greenlight harmful voter purges nationwide.

.@SenJeffMerkley's Constitutional Consideration for Use of Force Act is an important step in restoring Congress’ constitutional war powers to decide on going to war.
It would replace the 2001 and 2002 #AUMFs still being used as legal authority to fight terrorist groups.
Instead of an open ended authorization, it would authorize war only in Afghanistan and Iraq and only against al Qaeda, the Taliban and ISIL.

As Trump's temper tantrum continues, some are suggesting the impacts of a shutdown will be minimal.

In 2013, I was part of the team at OMB that managed the shutdown, and I can assure you the #TrumpShutdown will impact millions of people across the country. Thread 👇
For starters, it means 420,000 people will be working over the holidays without being paid, including the Secret Service agents protecting Trump and his entire family. Another 380,000 workers will be sent home without pay /2

While people hear "federal worker" and think of someone in DC, nearly 80% of the fed workforce live outside of the DC area. Many are counting on this paycheck to help cover necessities and holiday expenses.

So what happens when they're sent home? /3

#TBT to when Trump said Vermont wouldn’t pay for the wall. His useless and inhumane wall would do nothing to address illegal immigration, while his shutdown would have disastrous consequences across the country.
What’s the impact of a #TrumpShutdown? 380,000 people out of work. 420,000 people forced to work without pay. 9 of 15 federal departments and dozens of agencies will shutter their doors, grinding services to the American people to a halt. appropriations.senate.gov/news/minority/…
A #TrumpShutdown has REAL consequences for REAL people. Nearly 800k ppl would be furloughed just before the holidays or forced to work w/o pay. Services would grind to a halt. All, over a desperate attempt by the Pres to please his base & protect his ego. appropriations.senate.gov/news/minority/…
