The full weight of the federal government is being brought down on a law-abiding elected official because she has dared to criticize the president.
I think when we act on that basis, it doesn't always work out, but over time things do get better.
It is a decision about how do we face and embrace this finite amount of time we have on the planet.
The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views.
