John McCain, an American patriot, who left his mark—serving our country admirably both in uniform and in the Senate. When we disagreed, we could do so agreeably. Even during his waning days, he had the courage to challenge the President and to vote his conscience on health care.

Heroism is defined over a lifetime, and his was lived with honor and love of country. Remembering this hero tonight as we hope for more public servants with integrity like his. Rest In Peace, Senator, after a life so well lived.

Australia is a mighty long distance away, but, as this story shows, anti-immigrant feelings & climate change denial are not unique to America. We must stand up & push back harder here—or be pushed under by a reactionary wave. google.com/amp/s/www.wash…

Service over self has guided Sen. McCain’s life. In this challenging time, I am thinking of the Senator and his family.

A lifesaving drug is 100% ineffective if patients cant afford it. Fighting 4 their lives, patients shouldn’t have 2 fight Big Pharm price gouging too. I spoke 2 @KXAN_News on how my legislation would lower monopoly drug prices. I am grateful that Lora is willing 2 share her story pic.twitter.com/fAxQTK6hAb

When President Trump needs a big distraction, he regularly exposes his bigotry by attacking people of color. Not satisfied with sowing racial division in America, by repeating a fabricated white nationalist myth, he seeks to do so now in South Africa. nytimes.com/2018/08/23/opi…

Listening to @AdviseTX UT grads. Discussed my FAFSA simplification legislation & efforts to block GOP cuts to student financial assistance. Through AmeriCorps, these passionate young adults are being trained to work in high schools across TX & make college more attainable. pic.twitter.com/R2kqP8k0vH

.@BetsyDeVos plans 2 arm educators despite opposition f/ teachers & law enforcement like @AISDPolice Chief Ashley Gonzalez, who spoke against adding guns 2 classrooms. School safety threat isn't grizzlies, as DeVos warned in confirmation hearing; it’s her.

Some states are trying to make up for the failure of Trump & GOP-controlled Congress to address soaring Rx costs. But only federal action can fully address this problem.
We need more leaders who will stand up to Big Pharma & stop price gouging. nytimes.com/2018/08/18/us/…

As his own attorney says, Trump would like us to believe that “truth isn’t truth” when it comes to Trump’s wrongdoing. Fortunately, we don’t have to rely on his Twitter feed to sort out the facts for ourselves: nytimes.com/2018/08/18/us/…

His conviction could mean up to 80 years in prison. Around his DC trial on charges of conspiracy & money laundering, we may hear more on his finances w/ oligarchs & his work on Trump campaign. Troubling that President is so eager to keep him f/ speaking openly w/ Special Counsel.

8 counts. Per @WSJ, “Mr. Manafort was convicted of not paying taxes on more than $16 million in income and lying to two banks when he sought millions of dollars in loans.”
