His strategy is to take all of his time, and all of the moderator’s time, and all of Biden’s time?

This is just so bleak

I would just love to have a president that I would allow in the same room with my child.

We can’t even listen to the news with this man talking, liable to let our a racial slur
“I brought back football” look if you had handled COVID we would have had football anyway

The U.S. could have and should have led on this from the beginning. We’d rather have 200,000 Americans back than have football.

If the president wants to talk about law and order, he can talk about all of his employees and associates who have been indicted.

The president only believes in law and order for other people. Not himself. #Debates2020
Trump continues to refuse to denounce white supremacy.

This is unwatchable.

#Debates2020
President Trump turns Americans against each other and fuels toxic racism for his own political gain. He has no desire to unite Americans to move our country forward. Division is his primary political strategy. It’s wrong, and it’s not who we are as a country. #Debates2020

I will say what needs to be said about @SenSasse, from the great state of Nebraska.

Senator Sasse is all hat and no cattle. He talks about American ideals of freedom and independence when it gets him attention, but when it's time for action, he undermines democracy.
For example, Ben Sasse criticizes the praise of Q-anon, saying they push conspiracy theories, but fails to recognize that Trump *himself* is the one fanning the flames on these conspiracies. And what's he going to do about it? Nothing.
Sasse is on the foreign relations committee, but where was he on Russian bounties? Nowhere.

Where was he when Trump used the weight of American foreign policy to pressure a foreign country to do a domestic political errand for himself personally? Vanished.

I am still surprised that this Executive Order isn't getting more attention. It goes without saying that we are stretched too thin with fires to put out (many of them literal, hello California and Colorado), but this is a really big deal.
On September 22, the President issued an Executive Order prohibiting any org receiving federal funds from discussing topics deemed as "divisive," including racial and gender inequality.

I feel like this has flown under the radar.

This was brought to my attention by a constituent working on HIV/AIDS prevention/treatment who was forced to remove parts of their programming about the disproportionate impact of AIDS/HIV on Black men. This is just one consequence of this Order, and this should concern you

Thread: Early in the pandemic, after midnight on a day in April, Congressman Joaquin Castro of all people connected me with a woman living in North Omaha who was struggling to breathe at home and unable to find a hospital to test her for COVID.
The woman's sister had been a @Castro4Congress volunteer in TX. Through the grapevine, eventually the Congressman reached me. I immediately started calling and texting doctors and hospital directors I know and found one place for her to get tested/treated--IF she had insurance.
Although she was struggling for oxygen, the woman ended up deciding not to go to the hospital because she couldn't afford treatment. I did everything I could to connect her to financial aid and resources, I was very forceful, I offered to drive her myself and go with her.

Melania‘s comments about decorating for Christmas resonate with me the same as Hillary‘s comment about “baking cookies” when Bill was running—that’s my lens. Her feelings about Christmas decorating don’t matter. Not the story. Melania’s cruel remarks about family separation is.
I’m surprised I see most people picking up on the Christmas angle — I guess it’s remarkable given the nonsensical “War on Christmas” fabricated by the right to stake a fully unearned claim on faith and morality, but staff/consultants can do the holiday decor. Not the story.
The President’s nightmarish and cruel family separation policy is supported by his wife. The moral thing to do—the Christian thing to do—is open the camps, abolish ICE, + ensure those who carried out these grave acts be prosecuted and held accountable for human rights violations.

What do you all think about texts from campaigns?
I know research says they “work,” but the gut check isn’t there for me — I get way too many for me to believe they are effective. From candidates, from PACs, from nonprofits, many per day...
Many from candidates out of state who I can’t vote for, many asking if I’m registered to vote, which they should know...they should also know that I vote in every election. All this data tied to my cell phone is knowable to these candidates. Why don’t they filter me out?

Thread: I often comment on matters of local concern, especially when they intersect with racial justice issues. After James Scurlock’s killer died by suicide, the Omaha community was hurting for justice that we know will never be served.
I made a statement expressing condolences for both families involved, support for the Black Lives Matter movement, and emphasized the role white supremacy continues to play in increased racial violence across the country.

By outright lying about my words, Tucker Carlson, Ann Coulter, Mike Cernovich, and other figures on the far right have used this local tragedy as an opportunity to sow more political division. But that isn’t what Nebraskans want.
