A judge had to order the Trump Administration to allow doctors into detention centers. To ensure the migrants were being kept safe. From the American government. Let that sink in.

Please tell us, @realDonaldTrump, why it took a judge’s orders to grant basic care to migrants? This Administration’s border practices are an unmitigated disaster.

Yeah... we should probably enact election security legislation. Like, right now. QT @TIME: "Don't meddle in the election, please." President Trump jokes with Putin at the G20 summit https://t.co/YAsDGWZRLE https://t.co/NbHNSMFoUE)
It’s difficult to overstate the chaos, fear, panic, and confusion the Trump Administration has instilled — and continues to instill — in a truly countless number of immigrant families.

Last week, the House passed Chairman @BennieGThompson's bill to help protect synagogues, churches, mosques, and other houses of worship and at-risk nonprofits from terrorist attacks. Read more about his bill here: https://t.co/RRUuY8G7Ak
Today being the four-year anniversary of the shooting at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston is a stark reminder: our houses of worship are constantly under threat by domestic terrorists, fueled by a wide array of hateful ideologies. https://t.co/hOxv5FXKmJ
There's no plausible reason for Ken Cuccinelli, an anti-immigrant fringe figure, to be placed in charge of administering the American legal immigration system. He can't even be confirmed by the Senate – there's bipartisan opposition to his appointment. https://t.co/wUdUsntpFa
Why does Mitch McConnell keep blocking election security legislation? What’s there to lose by making our elections more secure? https://t.co/VDpyHRon58
Foolish? You know what would be foolish, @realDonaldTrump? A crippling tax on Americans because of a humanitarian crisis you're actively exacerbating. https://t.co/Cl4egXM3DH
And also after Senate GOP opposition. And also after @realDonaldTrump’s opposition which he finally overcame. Let’s be clear: Republicans have made disaster-stricken Americans across the country wait far, far too long for this help they so desperately needed. Shameful. QT @MSNBC: BREAKING: US House passes $19.1B disaster relief bill, despite the bill’s approval being delayed 3 times over the p… https://t.co/cz2WTrYecf)
It's hard to overstate just how deeply this cruel proposal – as well as so many other Trump Administration asylum system sabotages – cuts at the core of our American values. https://t.co/lEX08lxsZH
#ICYMI: On Friday, after the Senate had finally approved much-needed disaster relief funding, the House GOP decided to take the shameful step of playing partisan politics by blocking the bill. Desperate Americans must now continue to wait for help. https://t.co/i80wViNrW2
#ClimateChange is already devastating American communities through stronger/more frequent natural disasters, but @realDonaldTrump and his Administration continue to attack climate science. It’s time to: 1. Stop attacking the truth. 2. Take real action. https://t.co/2XbcwAPgIw
Checks and balances are pretty cool. QT @washingtonpost: Federal judge issues temporary injunction blocking part of Trump’s plan to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border https://t.co/uyHF8KDoi8)
So @realDonaldTrump wants his wall to be built by "a North Dakota construction firm whose top executive is a GOP donor and frequent guest on Fox News." Wow, it's almost like the entirety of his border wall obsession is a political charade. Shocker. https://t.co/JR2HmFJOr9
At this rate, how much will @realDonaldTrump’s do-nothing wall cost American taxpayers? $3 trillion? https://t.co/gBu8HKxwxD

Today at 9:30 AM, Acting @DHSgov Secretary @DHSMcAleenan will appear before the Committee to defend the Administration’s FY2020 budget for the Department. Needless to say, we have questions for him. https://t.co/pMOA8RhiXa

The Trump Administration has now made it clear that they show little to no regard for either the letter or the spirit of international asylum law. This near-daily increase in adversity toward families seeking safe harbor must end.

As POTUS, it's @realDonaldTrump's duty to work to protect the U.S. from foreign attacks – including on our democratic institutions. It's (way past) time for him to put his ego aside & take the threat of Russian interference into our elections seriously. https://t.co/Xdd4uU4jOd
In a @USGAO report this week, we learned FEMA’s & DHS’s contracting process for post-disaster recovery efforts needs *major* fixes. More transparency. More focus on local businesses. An urgent need to staff up the contracting workforce. Read about it: https://t.co/bH0YiuWTdt https://t.co/s5NaiMGaej

“She was above her head. It’s impossible to work, in my estimation, for President Trump on immigration… I’m really concerned about what the future may hold now that she’s out.” Check out Chairman @BennieGThompson's interview on DHS Secretary Nielsen's resignation below: https://t.co/HLBsaE7L2V

“Catastrophic.” “Economic Disaster.” “Price hikes, empty shelves.” To say the least, shutting down the border — which would just be yet another act of @realDonaldTrump’s anti-immigrant theatre — would be an economic nightmare.

For #WomensHistoryMonth, we'd like to shout out the incredible Democratic congresswomen who serve our committee: @JacksonLeeTX18, @RepKathleenRice, @RepTorresSmall, @RepUnderwood, @RepYvetteClarke, @RepSlotkin, @repdinatitus, @RepBonnie, @RepBarragan, and @RepValDemings https://t.co/GPxjNbx2we
"While welcomed news, this should have happened long ago." After a white supremacist killed 50 in the #NZMosquesShootings & live-streamed the attacks, Facebook today announced that it would be banning white nationalism content. Read Chairman @BennieGThompson's statement below: https://t.co/xJskr9UULW
Funds diverted from real, crucial projects. For an ineffective, wasteful wall. To “fend off” a manufactured security crisis. Is it worth it? https://t.co/oD3jKUonoR
The days of Congress, led by Republicans, neglecting the very real threat of domestic terrorism are over. We need answers from the @FBI and @TheJusticeDept about what’s being done about it. No more stonewalling. https://t.co/fqmq4tspj5
On Wednesday, after continuous stonewalling from the Administration, Chairman @BennieGThompson sent a letter to the FBI and DOJ demanding a long-overdue briefing on their work to address domestic terrorism. You can read the full text of the letter below https://t.co/Jz6iulVMH8
#ICYMI: this week, after the horrific #NZMosqueTerrorAttack, the President chose to downplay white nationalism/supremacy and the evil domestic terrorism it spawns. Fact check: he’s wrong, it IS a growing threat, and we can’t ignore it. https://t.co/yOmkyGPcTH
Contrary to your misguided belief, @POTUS, white nationalism is very much a growing threat. You can actually find a list of white nationalist hate groups currently in the U.S. here: https://t.co/PtXSDDSBIO A real security threat.

The dateline on this story is March 9, 2019. The Trump Administration’s family separation policy is not just a shameful chapter of our recent past. It’s a shameful chapter of our present. https://t.co/ueg18OIZBz
HAPPENING TODAY: The House will vote to block @realDonaldTrump’s unlawful #FakeEmergency declaration. There’s no national emergency at the border, plain & simple. We won’t stand for POTUS bypassing the Constitution just to fulfill a campaign promise. https://t.co/bPHVPKZSVJ
