Sometimes He Says He’s Austin From Texas

I’m only keeping a landline so my friend, Todd, from Mumbai can check in a couple of times a day to say my computer needs service. #scam

The Pen Is Mightier Than The Sword, Especially If It's A Pen In A Voting Booth

Nothing else I've written to my Senators has made a difference, this probably won't either, but maybe if we ALL write, well, to be honest, that probably won't make a difference either. Voting might, in fact, it's the only thing that will.
Anyway, this is what I wrote:
When Jeff Sessions was nominated to be a judge, Coretta Scott King, the widow of Martin Luther King Jr. wrote to the Senate Judiciary Committee to oppose the nomination. In her letter, she wrote that "Mr. Sessions has used the awesome powers of his office in a shabby attempt to intimidate and frighten elderly black voters."
In spite of this, and possible perjury during his confirmation hearing to be Attorney General, you voted to confirm him. Now that he is Attorney General, he is pursuing the most savage policy imaginable to deter people, actual human beings, from legally applying for asylum here. This is not a partisan issue, this is even more than JUST a matter of human rights. This goes to who we are as a nation. Will you be running next time as the candidate of the party that rips children from their mothers' arms to discourage asylum seekers? Or will you be the person, finally, that stands against the horrors being perpetrated daily by this rogue regime?
