#BREAKING Trump revokes ex-CIA Director John Brennanās security clearance. Sarah Huckabee Sanders reads statement calling him a liar and says heās sowing division and chaos. Reads off more names of top Trump critics.
Reporter to Sarah HS: The List of people whose security clearances TRump is considering revoking besides John Brennanās are only Democrats. Why should Americans have confidence youāre taking this seriously if not a single Republicanānot even Flynn who lied to FBIāis on that list?
The White House truly was Kremlin annex today. Petty vindictive Trump abuses power to blacklist ppl who happen to know about Russia, smearing & intimidating them for exercising their First Amendment right to criticize a dangerously unfit POTUS. Send gratitude, follow @JohnBrennan
Some of the core drivers of the religio-political violence in #Nigeria are failures to harmonise religious, political & civic impulses. I will try to summarise and discuss some of them here. #NotAnotherNigerian @QuilliamOrg
1. #Nigeria is a civic state, with much devout religious practice, mainly Christian and Muslim. Religious loyalty should not undermine civic loyalty, but sometimes does. Eg should Muslims be concerned about the 'ummah' & Christians about fellow believers only? #NotAnotherNigerian
2. The #Nigerian state apparatus, including the legal system, is heavily influenced by Britain. The Muslim areas used to have traditional Sharia, and were part of the Sokoto Caliphate. Sharia always had many interpretations: many of these were civic in nature. #NotAnotherNigerian

Solidarity & resistance can be simple, folks. But it does take speaking up, which I know can feel hard.
Iāve done this myself in various situations. One in particular stands out:

Police came on a BART train I was on and were going to take a man away (he was Black and developmentally disabled). He was terrified and started reciting a phone number, asking someone to please call his mother who would worry when he didnāt show up.
White women are saying "Becky is a slur." Y'all wrong. it's not a slur, but trust- I'm in your corner on this one, white women.
I hope and pray Becky does become a slur. I hope It becomes so offensive that we have to write it like b*cky.
And We can't say it on tv or in public but we still whisper it when you walk past, hoping you hear it.
New data suggest GOP 2016 nominee will need to win nearly half of Latino vote #lol latimes.com/nation/la-na-lā¦
Given voter demographics, campaign coverage feels like a fraud perpetuated by a media, flush with CitizensUnited $ & drunk on T-rump clicks
No matter who wins this election (or even if it never fucking ends), the media is lost.
Rt @escapist Obama: "Listen, I'll take responsibility. I'm the president.". (Music to my lil ears)
In the shadow of our future, these (from @Potus's cabinet too) are even more heartbreaking to read. medium.com/the-white-housā¦ #loligarchy
Not emotionally or ideologically prepared; can his Farewell rival my favorite Obama speech? #ThanksObama whitehouse.gov/the-press-offiā¦
