    In a Middle East region ridden with centuries-old tribal, ethnic, and religious strife, #Syria is particularly complex. But, as this week verifies, we must proceed with caution in exiting this messy neighborhood https://bit.ly/2IF8Kc0  #Syria #Yazidis @YazdaOrg @NadiaMuradBasee

        Curious whom you admire more-Trump’s head of Justice-Barr-who meets w FOX CEO-or Wynn-casino magnate and sexual assaulter-who acted as RNC finance chair-and raised tons of dirty money for GOP campaigns-

        I just spent the day speaking with terrified #Kurds who are streaming across borders, running for their lives. What an obtuse reading of a worsening humanitarian catastrophe - “The Kurds are much safer right now.” #Syria #Iraq https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1184496575663497216 …

        If these Syrian Kurds were Christians, Jeff would feel more compelled not to resign himself and the Kurds to their fate.

        Your work for the Yazidis is on the very short list of things I believe you deserve credit for representing District 1. All of this is at risk as these dominos fall thanks to Trump's decision to abandon our allies. Ethnic cleansing is *already* taking place as Turkey invades!

        Good if you to pretend you’ve not enabled the Trump incompetence. In a complex region, how does foreign policy by Tweet work out? We are no longer a reliable ally. You’re part of that.

        Yeah this is a pretty shitty thing for us to do to the Kurds. I expected you to say more and do more to help our friends.
