If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

Talking about Donald Trump having dementia just gives a sympathetic excuse for inexcusable preexisting conditions. Donald has *always* been a mean, self-centered, incoherent fool who says stupid and ignorant things.

If youâre traveling and spot ICE at the airport, start snapping photos. They aren't allowed to wear masks inside the terminal, which gives us a rare, massive opportunity for identification. Donât miss the shot
