I attended #NetrootsNation this week, and though I am a liberal not a progressive there were plenty of great sessions. Thur was a session regarding the census with @EricHolder @vanitaguptaCR @AlexPadilla4CA as they were speaking word came that Barr would be joining Trump today😮
@EricHolder is kicking ass on the census, gerrymandering and local elections
Today I marched for the first time in Philadelphia for the #LightsforLiberty rally, hot as hell but wow, they shut down the streets and we filled them.
#Lights4Liberty Philadelphia
#LightsforLiberty #Lights4LibertyPhiladelphia before we started marching

Today at #NetrootsNation I attended a session with 3 state AG's: @keithellison of MN, @JoshShapiroPA and @KathyJenningsDE
The power that the 23 democratic state AGs is mighty. LA needs to flip this year.

Early next week, according to a D.H.S. official, the Trump Administration is expected to announce a major immigration deal, known as a safe-third-country agreement, with Guatemala. newyorker.com/news/news-desk…
The draft of the agreement doesn’t provide much clarity on how it will be implemented—another person with knowledge of the agreement said, “This reads like it was drafted by someone’s intern”

but it does offer an exemption for Guatemalan migrants, which might be why the
government of Jimmy Morales, a U.S. ally, seems willing to sign on. Guatemala is currently in the midst of Presidential elections; next month, the country will hold a runoff between two candidates, and the current front-runner has been opposed to this type of deal.

Listening to discussion about changing criminal justice at #NetrootsNation with @ErikaAlmironNiz and Philly DA Larry Krasner
The discussion underlines how much collaborative work... Between the community, reformist DA's. Public defenders (Who represent 70% off all incarcerated people), and the communities is necessary to undermine mass incarceration.
The #NetrootsNation panel discussion now touches on the thread I just did the other day.

The division of people into "good people" and "criminals" fuels a deadly narrative.

1/ Will you join me for a thread of reflection as I head to Philadelphia on Amtrak to speak about a progressive vision for the future at #NetrootsNation? #NN19

The governing agenda of our nation ought to be:

#EndPoverty

Here’s why #EndPoverty is also an organizing vision...
2/ #EndPoverty means:

Poverty as it's experienced by the nearly 8 out of 10 Americans who live paycheck to paycheck, who are one "shit happens" life experience away from ruin
3/ Poverty happens because wages are too low & life's basic needs like health care are too expensive. Therefore, #EndPoverty, means a living wage of $20 per hour as a federal minimum wage, a big expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit and... #MedicareForAll #EndPoverty

@EricHolder has asked an important question:

#When was #America #ever #great?

I realize that there is a nearly unavoidable tendency to snort and spew one's coffee when they hear or read his question for the first time. But, honestly, isn't it worth the exercise to answer it?
So, @EricHolder, I'm going to do just that, and I'm going to ask my ragtag bag of followers and detractors to contribute as well.

I'm going to offer my evidence of moments of American greatness. And I'm going to ask those that read this thread to do the same.
But wait!

There's more!

I'm going to ask my detractors and antagonists (are you seeing this @fedupaton) to contribute as well, and will welcome from them both moments of greatness and moments of shame.

I’m hearing there probably won’t be any votes in the US Senate next week, even though leaders said they were cancelling the MLK recess due to the shutdown.

Senate will be in session, but no real reason for senators to be here
`There's not going to be a lot of business going on here in the Congress next week,' says GOP Sen Lisa Murkowski, expressing frustration as shutdown drags on. Says she was planning an Energy Cmte hearing next week but `most of my members I would count on aren't going to be here'
So don’t hold your breath waiting for the #shutdown to end anytime soon

By then, we’ll have multiple announced presidential candidates testing grassroots support
Woodfin makes one of the very few references - though not by name - to @BarackObama on the Netroots main stage
