The van nut who sent bombs to politicians: inspired by trump.
The New Zealand terrorist who killed 49 people: inspired by trump.
He called for a Muslim ban. He calls Nazis "very fine people."
HE IS INSPIRING VIOLENCE.

1. You created the Muslim Ban 2. You use rhetoric to purposely inspire White Nationalists 3. the shooter's manifesto cites YOUR WORDS 4. Very good people on both sides 5. You have purposely fueled this hate

Rate at which these white terrorists are being radicalized online is horrifying. Citizens can't be alone in this fight. Leaders around the world - most esp here in America - need to come up w/firm plans to dismantle this. Thoughts & prayers ain't cutting it
w/love. Don’t we live here all together spinning in space on an unfathomably beautiful planet, each particle containing the whole universe. We are so exquisitely fortunate. The chances of us being here are beyond calculation. We happen to share this space with 1.8 billion peace-loving practicing Muslims in 50 countries. May all beings be happy, may all be beings be peaceful, may all beings be free from suffering.

Gotta wonder - why exactly are Repubs fixated with this? They don’t give a crap about the foetus / child after he or she is born … and become adults.
No universal healthcare. They dont care about the planet or about giving the same foetus they want saved - cleaner air to breathe. They dont care about the general safety - not banning guns.
Do they hate women so much that a rape victim has to live with the knowledge that she has been violated physically by the rapist and then her rights violated by the GOP?
Forever Flotus and PBO are working tirelessly and MO is spot on when she said that ‘there are no off years’ when it comes to election. They are truly amazing.
I remember when I was a little kid I’d watch all the Sunday political talk shows, to be truthful I really didn’t have a choice in the matter. My old man would make my brother and I watch those shows with him. He’d say if you can sit up here with your eyes glued to the t.v. and watch “Tarzan” you can sit and watch something that’s very important. He hated “Tarzan” and for obvious reasons, but when you’re a kid you aren’t able to recognize what you’re truly watching. I’d give anything to be a child again laying on the floor watching “Tarzan” whiling listening to my old man rage about everything, anything.
♥️🌏🙏🏼🕯🕰. There are many more who care than those who hate. Keep You The Heart. Love Will Prevail. Remember what PBO said about the pendulum, in his farewell address, the world will be a better place before much longer.

And I may say here, especially it will be women of colour, who have borne the burden of woe in this country on their backs for centuries, those are the women with the strength of heart to carry on. Love is coming. ♥️

The Obamas visiting the Istiqlal Mosque in Indonesia in 2010; and President Obama visiting the Ismatic Society of Baltimore Mosque and Al-Rahmah’s School In 2016.
I think so many people misconstrued what Michelle Obama meant by this.
"When they go low, we go high". Bear that in mind. It doesn't mean "when they fight dirty, we act like pansies" It means "when they say something low, we say something much better and higher". And we keep behaving like decent people. WHILE FIGHTING. It's a different concept.
The face of terror is sitting in the White House through an act of aggression, a war of dominance by a hostile foreign power that resulted in the surrender of the sovereignty of the United States of America. https://t.co/MJChBUSiMp

The President's hold over DC, his party and the nation is weakening. His 2020 poll numbers suck, he doesn't listen or course correct, very little of what's he done is working. For professionals in the business Trump is looking far more like a loser than winner these days. https://t.co/mauir8GAAu
They have no NRA and such. Makes a difference. Proud of them for this. People with brains don’t just hope that it won’t happen again. They actually DO something. Just. Like.This.
In a commonsense reality, military style weapons would be banned all over the world.
Looks like Australia where the terrorist got his gun, would help NZ by doing another mass ban and jettison of guns again - as in 1997.
This is some very very sick and creepy perverted intrusion on the part of Trump's gestapo. Tracking menstrual cycles but not parental separations. Absolutely grotesque.
So much for everyone in Hollywood being a liberal.
Remember how Republicans attacked 'liberals' because they assumed Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli, two individuals allegedly involved in the #CollegeCheatingScandal were "liberals?"
I was skeptical of AOC in the beginning when I thought she was using her position simply to undermine Democrats she considered not progressive enough but she has recently won me over with her astute voice in hearings. She obviously take the time and effort to be prepared to do the job required of her position rather than just be a politician. I hope this continues.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day weekend, everyone! I’m one-quarter Irish, and it’s the part I most identify with, truth be told!
Just a thought … anybody else remember the Obama presidency, when it seemed most weekends (when his schedule allowed), he’d spend time with his family and friends, regrouping, resting, exercising, having fun, so he’d be ready to roll when the new week presented itself? That also allowed (other than the skeleton crew) the rest of the White House staff to do the same.
Now, since the orange bozo has no friends or family who wish to be anywhere near him - and vice versa - and doesn’t exercise and can’t sleep, he keeps everybody (treasonous enough to work for him) from resting, so they might also re-group. And we spend some hours in our own weekends keeping up, so we’re ready to fight back.
We must change this soon!
Other than that, have a fine day. 🙂 We’ve got sunshine in The Land of Lincoln!!!!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day to you, O’Booms!! I think you’d enjoy being in my town today.

New Zealand prime minister challenges Trump to offer Muslim communities “sympathy and love”
http://hill.cm/bQMO05z
Trump don’t know how to offer anyone love and sympathy but his kind, White supremacists.
Sometimes what appears to be the smallest gesture has the greatest impact. Be kind.
In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, a memory of one of the most wonderful moments in PBO’s presidency: his trip to Moneygall and meeting Cousin Henry.
And of course, his trip to Ollie Hayes’ pub.
Loved catching a quick peek of Pete Sousa in the crowd.
I didn’t see him……I’ll have to have another look!
In the street, not the pub
Ooooh, I see him now. Well, I see his camera, actually.
