Seeing the families & faces of loved ones who lost their lives in the Boeing 737 MAX crashes was harrowing & heartbreaking. This accident was preventable if Boeing & the FAA had not put profits over safety. Meaningful reforms to the certification process are urgently needed. https://t.co/5KjYjchCiy — PolitiTweet.org

Boeing came to my office after the 737 MAX crashes & said they were the result of pilot error. Those pilots never had a chance. The passengers who lost their lives never had a chance. They were in a flying coffin as a result of Boeing deciding to conceal key safety flaws. https://t.co/owA583V20O — PolitiTweet.org

From inside Facebook, speaking truth to power&insisting that untruths by politicians be checked—this cry for accountability mirrors my letter&others. Being a politician shouldn’t be a license to lie—especially to spread hatred. If Facebook employees get it so should Zuckerberg. https://t.co/SxQHKkdyUl — PolitiTweet.org

No cause for complacency in al-Baghdadi raid—enabled by intel experts, brave special operations forces & information from partners (notably the Kurds). ISIS resurgence is real & urgent, enabled by Trump’s disastrous Syrian withdrawal. More than ever, we need regional allies. — PolitiTweet.org

The death of al-Baghdadi may have dealt a tactical & symbolic blow to ISIS, but this fight isn’t over, especially with hundreds of ISIS operatives back in operation as a result of Trump’s actions & Turkish attacks. — PolitiTweet.org

Boeing must answer why its leaders apparently undercut oversight—early & often. The story of its sabotaging rigorous safety scrutiny is chilling—& more reason to keep its 737 MAX grounded until certification is truly independent & the system reformed. https://t.co/jLjhnmlWNt — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s legal wall continues to crumble. Grand Jury evidence is overdue for disclosure—&certainly will be damning—but the Impeachment inquiry focus should continue to be on Trump’s self-confessed abuse of power in extorting a foreign power (Ukraine) to interfere in our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Tragically, now unquestionably crystal clear is that a deeply flawed & seemingly lackadaisical development, oversight, & training process is at the core of the 737 MAX crashes. This report adds to the growing evidence of systemic deadly failures by Boeing, FAA, & others. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump&AG Barr are politically weaponizing DOJ—threatening a return to it’s darkest days. Targeting law enforcers as enemies—simply because they have the spine to stand up to corrupt power—is deeply dangerous, indeed chilling. This line must not be crossed. https://t.co/nt9TJZsX9I — PolitiTweet.org

Zuckerberg has given politicians a blank check to spread lies. Facebook’s hands-off exemptions for politicians are so convoluted, inconsistent, & opaque that they invite manipulation & evasion.

After House approval of our PACT Act—cracking down on animal cruelty—I’ll be pushing for swift Senate passage. Barbaric animal torture should’ve become a federal crime long ago. Too commonly, it’s a companion to domestic abuse & other brutal criminality. https://t.co/oNrL7kKUbq — PolitiTweet.org
