Glad to see the Administration push back against alleged chemical weapons attack by Assad in Syria. When it comes to using chemical weapons, the third time should NOT be the charm.

Our response to the second chemical attack, in my view, was insufficient and has not in any way deterred Assad’s capability to murder his own citizens.
We can no longer afford to send mixed messages and weak responses regarding outrageous conduct by Assad that violates all norms of civilized society.

Very beneficial hearing today in @senjudiciary regarding dangers children face from internet predators on social media.

ICYMI:

@senjudiciary Under current law, social media companies have broad liability protections regarding how their products are used.
@senjudiciary I believe when it comes to protecting children from sexual exploitation, social media companies should be required to meet 'Best Business Practices' to earn their liability protection in this area.

Great visit to FCI Edgefield with Attorney General Barr and Senator Tim Scott where we discussed implementation of the FIRST STEP Act.
Under this law, non-violent offenders can reduce their sentences if they prepare themselves with the skills needed to reintegrate themselves into society.

We also reviewed rehabilitation programs and efforts that will hopefully reduce recidivism rates.
Thank you to President @realDonaldTrump for signing FIRST STEP into law. He deserves great credit for this long-overdue change.

Also, thank you to the men and women who work in BOP, our federal prison system, particularly those in Edgefield.

Incredible #July4th2019 experience being with the men and women of the aircraft carrier U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln.

To witness carrier flight operations up close is a once in a lifetime — never to be forgotten — experience.
This carrier and its crew represent the power and goodness of America.

They come from all backgrounds and all corners of our country to form an incredible team that is the tip of the spear in defending America and our allies from threats in the Middle East.
They are ready for war but all pray for peace.

Keep these men and women, and all who serve, in your prayers.

Happy #4thOfJuly!

#Libia 3 (mission impossible)

#Airports have become vital strategic assets for the many militias vying for #Libya’s vast natural resources.

#Trump would be better off listening to his own military commanders, who understand that #Haftar cannot so easily take control of all of #Libya militarily.

President #Trump’s support of a #Libyan warlord is a big mistake

U.S. Policy of not talking to Assad & Syrian State is the primary reason for this seemingly confused, disjointed and unrealistic signals coming out of Washington.

It ought to be crystal clear to most capitals by now that #Syria 's leadership is going nowhere anytime soon ====>
2-By ignoring the irrefutable evidence on the ground, the U.S. is having to invent ways to deal with #Syria while avoiding to recognize the clear winner of the 7-year old conflict. Only credible path forward is for @realDonaldTrump to encourage the Kurds to talk to Damascus
3-As abhorrent as that may seem to many in Western capitals, the fact is that key regional capitals already realized the inevitable. The solution to #Syria can only come when @realDonaldTrump tells the kurds that the US cannot stay in their region indefinitely

There is a possibility of an announcement today. That’s if the collective U.S. government is unable to push back against #Trump - as it did earlier in the year after his comments in #Ohio.

More than anything, this is an extraordinary insult to the recent efforts of Amb. Jeffrey.
#pt: #Trump told #Turkey’s #Erdogan of his intentions by phone on Friday last week.

Coming in the context of Turkish threats to intervene in NE #Syria, the message to the #YPG/#SDF couldn’t be any worse. The US will abandon “the Kurds” again, if #Trump gets his way here.
#pt: Worse still, this’ll be music to the ears of #ISIS, #Assad, #Russia & #Iran.

#Trump isn’t only doing what #Obama did in leaving #Iraq prematurely, he’s doing it in an environment in which #America’s adversaries will benefit: jihadis, #Iran and #Russia.

Unbelievable hubris.

#Burkas are like wearing a crusifix&should b defended,said Scots leader liberal+lesbian,irresponsibly ignoring that a crusifix is a symbol of #Christianity,which holds t western civilisation,while #nijab is a symbol of oppression enforced recently in #Islam by the #Saudi #Wahhabi
#Liberals accusing #Iranian govt of"oppressing women" who must wear a lose scarf,but do not protest against the #Saudi #Wahhabi reactionary dogma,while it's creeping as political #Islam to combat western #civilisation at the end.If it's sounds like fiction,think Saudi investments
Serious problem wth "western civilisation"mental health.Giving up easily to full veil wearing wthout asking what the cover symbolises,wthout questioning why it came from archaic #Saudi #Wahhabi #Sharia #Regime by force,is👉rejection of progressive western values.Period
