    This Veteran served his country and he’s mad as hell! Duty, honor and country. Values that Trump knows nothing about, and doesn’t care about.

    As threatens abortion rights with his , public opinion is squarely against him. Both precedent & public opinion agree: the nominee must commit to protecting Roe v. Wade & a woman's right to choose.

    As a Veteran, I worry about the future of democracy. I worry that an authoritarian, fascist, anti-Democratic President is running amok, with no checks & balances from Congress. Veterans must continue to speak out about the threat to Democracy, and the bloodshed to protect it.

    Dozens of immigrants have been given abrupt, unexplained military discharges and canceled contracts. They were willing to risk their lives for the prospect of citizenship, an exchange that's drawn immigrants to the military since the Revolutionary War.

    Bolton continues to undermine diplomacy, trying to set things up to get the war he wants. That MUST not be allowed to happen.

    calling nuclear talks “regrettable” utterly predictable: in Singapore US didn’t demand that Kim Jong Un define promise to denuclearize, Trump too eager for a victory weakening US leverage, Bolton raised expectations on by saying it can be done in a year

    It is of utmost importance that hawks like not be able to use this to push Trump to walk away. Now that the US has chosen direct diplomacy, we must keep at it, even when there are setbacks. Too many lives at risk.

    BREAKING: North Korea Foreign Ministry says talks with Pompeo 'regrettable,' accuses US of unilateral demands for denuclearization.

    . likes to talk about supporting our soldiers, but it’s clear that support ends if it means standing up to . His silence is a disgrace. deserves a representative with the courage to lead, not another spineless politician. It's time for new leadership.

    As a first-generation American, I served to give back to a country that gave me and my family so much. That is the story of so many who sign up to defend our country. They are willing to fight for us, so we should fight for them.

    I served with many great soldiers who were immigrants. These patriotic men and women are willing to serve, sacrifice and die for the United States. Now the Trump administration is breaking faith with them. Congress can and must pass a law reversing this.

    AP NewsBreak: The U.S. Army has moved in recent weeks to discharge dozens of immigrant recruits and reservists who enlisted through a program that promised them a path to citizenship.
