On the left, an open letter signed by @realdonaldtrump 10 years ago today, calling on President Obama to #ActOnClimate. On the right, our open letter to Trump demanding the same thing now, in light of his efforts to rollback all the progress made under the last administration. https://t.co/Rv5ddkkuDN — PolitiTweet.org

@DHS_Wolf @SenKamalaHarris @SenWarren @SenSchumer @DHSgov MPP is a disaster and is being administered in violation of DHS’s own policies. This program is not meant to help legal asylum seekers find asylum. It is meant to traumatize and endanger asylum seekers so that they give up and go home before they have a chance to win asylum. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Despite @DHS_Wolf’s refusal to turn over the Red Team report at my, @SenKamalaHarris, @SenWarren, & @SenSchumer request, the report is now public and it shows that even as Trump moved to expand MPP, @DHSgov staff were raising alarms. — PolitiTweet.org

It is essential to honor the spirit of the Constitution and put country above partisan politics. The Senate owes a fair trial to the American people, our democracy, and our national security. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
A completely partisan impeachment trial is contrary to the Constitution and the oath of office made by every Senator. https://t.co/8pMlHsGkYz — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Our Constitution & the integrity of our govt demand a full & objective examination of the House’s evidence against Trump, to determine if criminal conduct or abuse of power occurred. Otherwise there are no limits to how a president can abuse the office. https://t.co/knSTuW8uG2 — PolitiTweet.org

How do you nominate a person who supported torture to represent America in human rights debates around the world? Billingslea’s nomination would be a joke if the consequences weren’t so dire. The Senate needs more information on his role in Bush-era torture interrogations. — PolitiTweet.org

The indifference towards human life repeatedly displayed by DHS detention centers is appalling. Following medical best practices should be the bare minimum for government agencies. https://t.co/5CWHCg4z1P — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Over the past 10 years, greenhouse gas emissions have climbed 1.5% EVERY YEAR – and recent actions by @realDonaldTrump (incl. his decision to pull out of the Paris Agreement) will only worsen the crisis. We have to #ActOnClimate NOW, before it’s too late. https://t.co/qcvW1gMEIe — PolitiTweet.org

It's easy to get lost in the scale of this administration's cruelty. But every item you see is a story: a child’s, a mother’s, a father’s. Someone who owned a tube of toothpaste, who wore Velcro baby shoes, who made a playlist of “super sappy songs”. We can't lose sight of them. — PolitiTweet.org

High-speed internet is a fundamental need in today’s connected world. If we don’t continue to prioritize and push for rural broadband, small businesses, students, teachers, job applicants, and more are going to be left behind. I won’t let that happen. https://t.co/U6SL25T0MZ — PolitiTweet.org

What does it tell you about this President that he continues to prioritize special interests and billionaires over hungry families and children? He’s taking from the poor to give to the rich. https://t.co/o5MYGttiGJ — PolitiTweet.org

Today, as we mark the @UN's Elimination of Violence Against Women Day, a reminder that Mitch McConnell STILL has not allowed a vote on the reauthorization of the #ViolenceAgainstWomenAct – a bill he's sat on to the detriment & danger of survivors of sexual & domestic violence. — PolitiTweet.org

What happens when Trump, Pompeo, Pence, Mulvaney, and the rest drive all of the people who believe in the Constitution, the rule of law, and our sacred democratic institutions out of office and out of public service? https://t.co/QE2yZA1RJv — PolitiTweet.org

Tens of thousands of people have been dumped in Mexico bc of MPP. Now Trump wants to expand the program, placing more families in harm’s way. This is the systematic destruction of our asylum process, and it runs counter to national and international law. https://t.co/f8F3QxmzPi — PolitiTweet.org

Here is what we know: “MPP” is Orwellian-speak for stranding families in dangerous circumstances where they have no family, no friends, no funds, and little-to-no ability to monitor their cases. Release your own department’s red team report for all the world to see. — PolitiTweet.org
