Barack Obama: “We can win this fight.”

The effort, he said, “should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views.”

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.
