  6. Do not let your inability to do everything undermine your determination to do something. We are living testimonies to the millions who, amidst tremendous trials and overwhelming odds, still chose to do something: something to protest, something to resist, something to help.

    I was astonished today that a Trump fed judge nominee couldn't answer my questions re: whether he believed implicit racial bias exists in our criminal justice system, saying that even as a former trial judge, he's unfamiliar with the abundance of empirical evidence on this topic.

    This is astonishing: 7th Circuit nominee Michael Brennan just refused to tell Sen. whether he believes implicit racial bias exists in the criminal justice system, saying he's unfamiliar with the data even though he's served as a trial court judge.

    At this morning’s hearing, judicial nominee Michael Brennan told that he can’t say whether implicit racial bias exists in the criminal justice system. This is OUTRAGEOUS and should be disqualifying.

    You can't lead the people if you don't love the people. We are leaving too many Americans behind as Trump and Republican leadership fail to provide support for Americans facing hardship and trial. This is a moral moment, not a political one. We must all stand and speak out.

    Knocked down, Stand up Fall down, Get up Pushed back, Push back The path toward justice is always fraught with treacherous trials. No matter what the set back, we must never, ever give up. Justice will be determined not by size of the obstacle but by the force of our will.

    This alone is disqualifying to Pence for the presidency, or any public office! His statements are factually inaccurate and totally partisan! The military is NOT a political prop!

    Mike Pence launching partisan attacks in front of troops overseas is unspeakably bad. That he would do so after Democrats tried to guarantee pay and Republicans stopped it makes it so much worse.
