    There have been countless heinous videos and photos from this war but this one might be the worst. It’s been eight years with no end in sight.

    Some terrible images coming out of Russian/Syrian airstrikes in Idlib today. A headless child. A breathing, bleeding fetus. A boy shredded from the chest down. They're too awful to post. But it doesn't stop.

    In August 2014, ISIS executed over 2000 former security officers and officials in Mosul after promising they were safe. The bodies were dumped in the infamous "Khasfa". A massacre rarely mentioned in the media, and unacknowledged by the government.

    It's a miracle no one was killed last night, thanks to a lot of goodwill and teamwork between Krasner and Ross and the restraint of a lot of police officers. This statement is disgusting.

    Trump’s U.S. Attorney in Philly issues a stunning attack on DA Larry Krasner after the shooting of six officers yesterday.

    Asking dogs to stand up to gunmen because Senators are too afraid to stand up to gun lobbyists is a uniquely American solution to gun violence. Text RALLY to 644-33 to join us this weekend. We don’t have to live like this; our children shouldn’t be afraid they’ll die like this.
