The disruption of Seattle’s Diwali celebration is deeply disturbing. Families gathered to celebrate a holiday rooted in light, hope, and community were instead met with targeted anti-Indian and anti-Hindu hate. No one should have to experience that, especially while celebrating their faith and culture. Our Indian American neighbors deserve to feel safe, respected, and welcome in every community. news18.com/amp/world/deport-…

I am beyond disgusted by this vile and racist display. Diwali is an important holiday and our community should feel safe to celebrate it. This hateful display has no place in our city or this country.
HAPPENING NOW: Absolutely chaotic scene as conservative activists Jake Lang and Thomas Allen storm a Diwali Hindu celebration at the Seattle Center Armory.
They held signs that read, "Deport All Dot Heads" and "Stop Hindu Replacement of Christians."
I just spoke to both men who say they are concerned about American culture being overrun by false idol worshippers and H1-B fraudsters.
Lang and Allen say they will be targeting other locations in the city this weekend.
They have yet to announce details of their plans due to possible retaliation by Antifa and other far-left activists.
Stay tuned.

Well, now that the Democrats have won, it's only a matter of time until they make Ohio a state. I hope you're all happy.

Let’s take it even further!! I’m proposing what I am calling “Individual Voters” where each voter is their own member of the electoral college.

Any questions?

Every anti-Paxton Republican I talked to was sick of exactly this kind of crap. They want the party to grow up, stop acting like Biff from Back to the Future, and actually try competence and integrity for a change.

Democrats should do the Stefanik college president hearings in reverse. Get college presidents on the record saying that students have the right to peacefully protest and to say controversial--even offensive-- things. Get them on the record that scholars should not punished for their views and that universities will protect foreign students targeted for their views. Demand that the last three years of McCarthyism and cowardice end now.

You’re about to see some Hall of Fame snitching and Game of Thrones level maneuvering within this administration. It’s about to be every man and woman for themselves.

Long time Exec Director of Mi Republican Party when it was the gold standard of state parties.
Tonight is likely to be a rejection of @MikeRogersForMI. All my tweeting aside, I’ve known Mike & Kristi for 30+ years, I know how much it will hurt to lose. If that happens, I hope they accept this in the spirit in which this is offered: You deserve to be miserable after the appalling bigotry you’ve spread like napalm. Go away.

No, I'm saying that your attempt to ignore years of Trump and the GOP repeatedly attacking our constitutional order by creating some fantasy of what you assert Democrats will do three years from now is a dishonest and partisan argument - and you, of course, know it.

Mike Rogers will be another rubber stamp for Donald Trump’s dangerous agenda. We can’t afford to give MAGA another Senate seat in November. #MISEN
