A $7 million bonus for getting the 737 MAX ungrounded is outrageous in the face of two tragic plane crashes and 346 deaths. It’s a clear incentive for Boeing’s new CEO to pressure regulators and rush a flawed plane back into the sky. I’m calling on Boeing to cancel this bonus. https://t.co/dpRHITStPz — PolitiTweet.org

We already knew that Beijing fears open discussion of China’s record on human rights, including its effort to erase an entire culture in Xinjiang. But this latest action to deny entry to @hrw head @KenRoth provides new evidence that China is restricting freedom in Hong Kong. — PolitiTweet.org

This wasn’t just a misrepresentation about the “imminent threat” of Soleimani, this looks to be a fabrication intended to bypass Congress’s Constitutional role to authorize war. Those in the Trump admin obsessed w/ regime change in Iran seem willing to outright lie to achieve it. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @iingwen on her re-election as president. She has made clear that a democratic Taiwan will not concede to threats and intimidation. I look forward to continuing our work to advance freedom in the Indo-Pacific. https://t.co/7K55Cm4a74 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Esper outed our Liar-in-Chief Trump in yet another fabrication, this time about an “imminent threat”. We still don’t know the facts of what led Trump to put everyone in the region in harm’s way. We cannot be led into a war with Iran by war hawks and Trump’s ego. #NoWarWithIran — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be on CNN at 5pm EST talking with @WolfBlitzer about the situation in Iran and President Trump’s impeachment trial. Tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The WH briefing on Soleimani's assassination offered no evidence that there was an “imminent attack”. The Trump admin will keep offering shifting justifications, but after being briefed, it’s clear to me it was an intentional and irresponsible escalation of conflict with Iran. https://t.co/VLOl3Xr21l — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s be clear: new sanctions on Iran are a provocation. Escalation isn’t just military action. Doubling down on this failed policy moves us away from negotiations and inflicts suffering on ordinary Iranians that leads the leadership to take provocative action. It needs to stop. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m deeply disturbed by these Boeing emails. It’s outrageous to see just how much Boeing disregarded safety and created a culture that, unsurprisingly, fostered a plane as flawed as the 737 MAX. We can’t allow this kind of attitude in our aviation industry ever again. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Getting ready to join @Lawrence @TheLastWord to discuss my call with @RepRoKhanna for Trump to de-escalate conflict with Iran. We still don’t have answers about the Administration’s so-called intelligence behind the assassination of Soleimani. #nowarwithiran — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Soleimani’s assassination was a serious step down a path toward full-blown war with Iran. @RepRoKhanna & I are leading 21 lawmakers in calling on the Trump administration to immediately cease escalating conflict & take these 5 actions to avert a cataclysmic war. #NoWarWithIran https://t.co/U3CmmWzNtG — PolitiTweet.org

Any meaningful children’s privacy law must also include other rules like banning targeted advertising to kids and forcing companies that should reasonably know they reach children to get permission before amassing data about young users. My bill w/ @SenHawleyPress does just that. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Good to see a growing, bipartisan consensus that kids deserve an online eraser button and young teens need new protections online. But this is only part of the solution to today's children's privacy crisis. https://t.co/3IsWjwfH0J — PolitiTweet.org

Supercharged by climate change, the Australian fires have killed 1 billion animals. We can’t wait to confront this crisis, we’re in a man-made mass extinction right now. All of life on Earth depends on us mobilizing for a #GreenNewDeal immediately. https://t.co/bPId7VMVlL — PolitiTweet.org

This statute is one of the only laws that allows impacted communities to voice their concerns about projects that could harm their health, environment, & future. This attack on NEPA is the latest & most dangerous front yet in the Trump admin’s assault on environmental justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We are in a climate emergency, and the Trump admin’s attack on the National Environmental Policy Act would be the equivalent of shutting down 911. We need to consider climate change as part of every single decision made by the federal government, not ban it from the discussion. — PolitiTweet.org

America still imports roughly 1 million barrels of oil/day from the Persian Gulf. Thousands of U.S. troops are in the Persian Gulf because of our reliance on oil from this unstable region. https://t.co/yJN1Rxq6Ux — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenateDems & the American people want a real impeachment trial. @SenateGOP only seems to want an impeachment cover-up. A trial without witnesses & documents is a sham. That’s why Senate Dems will do everything to get them, including forcing votes to compel testimony & evidence. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The United States must talk with President Rouhani or other senior Iranian leaders on diplomatic steps to defuse tensions. We cannot allow Trump to lead us into a war with Iran. #NoWarWithlran — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The escalation in Iran’s provocative actions can be traced to Trump’s decision to pull out of the Iran Deal and crush Iran with sanctions. The administration must commit to de-escalation and Congress needs to repeal the 2001 and 2002 authorizations for use of military force. — PolitiTweet.org
