We have verified with law enforcement officials in Galveston, that the photograph taken in Galveston is real. It is hard to understand why these officers felt this young man required a leash, as he was handcuffed and walking between two mounted officers.
It is a scene that has invoked anger, disgust, and questions from the community. We will be watching for the Galveston Police Department’s response to their investigation of this matter and the accountability of the officers involved.
Swift action is needed to ensure that no one is demeaned in this manner again, and arrest procedures are fair, just, and humane.
Below is the statement for Galveston Police.
And our response to Chief Hale.

We need more than a resolution, we need clear and consistent moral leadership across the board. These are rough times and we need leaders who will put our communities first consistently across the board. 1/
My life has been in service of others. As a mom, teacher, community organizer I always focused on making sure people were cared for and protected. The current seat holder of TX-14 sits silent as members of his party embrace racism and hatred that hasn’t been seen in decades. 2/
As your representative, my focus will be on fighting to improve the lives of the members of our district and for people across the country. Trump‘s friends in Congress spend more time on actions that deprive people, instead of bettering our lives. 3/

Today the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments on an ACA lawsuit in which opponents of the law have continued to argue for total repeal but have NOT provided an alternative. Texas state legislatures failed to pass any healthcare reform. #healthcare #HealthcareForAll 1/
Approx 17% of people in TX-14 are uninsured (2016). In Jefferson County that number rises to 21.5%. Texas ranks last in health care access and affordability. One-third of hispanic adults and 20% of AA adults were uninsured in 2017. We deserve better. #HealthcareForAll 2/
The incumbent in this race along with the rest of the GOP has made it their mission to stand in the way of progress on healthcare access and affordability in our district and across the country. We need to move beyond fighting for access and affordability to #Medicare4All 3/

Comey’s FBI Ignored Sexual Abuse Victims To Play Politics bit.ly/2YZqJQh
Coaches, parents, USA Gymnastics execs and Michigan State Univ officials turned a blind eye to Nassar’s deviancy, hundreds of the world’s most talented female athletes were physically tormented for years as the doctor traveled with them across the country and around the world.
And the powerful agency assigned with protecting the most vulnerable from the most predatory—the Federal Bureau of Investigation, led by the preening, moralistic James Comey—took no action until it was too late.

Man accused of being the world's biggest facilitator of child porn extradited to US this morning.

Thanks @CatsChocolates

The charges relate to images on over 100+ anonymous sites, described as ‘extremely violent, graphic & depicting rape & torture of pre-pubescent children’

Sites have ‘thousands of members’, who have posted ‘millions of images’.

Some of the children involved are infants, per FBI
Eric Eoin Marques – a US-born Irishman – worked for years in isolation from his father’s ground-floor, one-bedroom flat in Ireland to become the biggest dealer of child-abuse images in the world, according to US law enforcement.

Today, our Commonwealth and country stand in solidarity with the Jewish community of Pittsburgh. We mourn the loss of eleven lives at Tree of Life Synagogue in Squirrel Hill and pray for their families.
This was an evil act of hate and the perpetrator must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

I received a briefing from the FBI and local law enforcement officials directly involved in this investigation.
Our Commonwealth is grateful for the heroic actions of the Pittsburgh police officers who directly engaged the suspect and saved lives.

Today, @CER_EU publishes my piece on #Brexit and #JHA. I have been looking at this for 1,5 years so I hope I did not make too many mistakes (links to piece - cer.eu/publications/a… and opens thread)
At the outset of the #Brexit process, most people assumed that a deal on #police and #judicial co-operation was easier to get than one on #trade. Time has shown this is not the case. Ongoing co-op on #JHA is one of the few items yet to be agreed on #withdrawal deal. Why?
Well, because the #EU and #UK's opening positions in the #negotiation are incompatible: Britain wants a #bespoke agreement with the EU, a la #Schengen, but is not willing to accept #ECJ or #EUCharter. EU wants to replicate existing models. What to do?
