@koush One freshman member cannot reconvene the entire House, launch a large scale investigations, etc alone. But Congressional leadership can. What I can do is voice my readiness to pursue a plan of action, address this emergency, and head back now if that is what‘s necessary. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not a coincidence that the GOP advanced tropes about non-citizenship to President Obama, Reps. Tlaib, Omar & Pressley, & now Sen. Kamala Harris; especially in moments of power. Implying poc “don’t belong” in our country is one way of protecting a white supremacist vision. — PolitiTweet.org

Whether it’s “where’s the birth certificate?” to “send her back!” to “where were her parents from?”- these contrived claims (which are almost never levied at white US officials born abroad) catch on bc the supremacist idea that poc are inherently less legitimate has deep roots. — PolitiTweet.org

White supremacy is a belief system based on the idea that ppl of color, esp Black ppl, are fundamentally illegitimate as equal citizens or human beings. Calling into question the citizenship of elected officials of color, esp when the answer is obvious, is one way it manifests. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not just Trump that‘s destroying the US Post Office. It’s the entire Republican Party. Senate & House GOP could easily override a Trump veto of postal funding and help oversight. Republicans are working with Trump to destroy the USPS and sabotage the delivery of ballots. — PolitiTweet.org
