Tell your representative, especially Senate, to make ending our complicity in crimes against humanity in Yemen a matter of highest priority in January!
Let’s get out of Yemen in January! The history of War Powers & how the War Powers Act to end U.S. involvement in Yemen could easily pass. @RoKhanna @RepThomasMassie @ChrisMurphyCT @SenSanders @SenMikeLee are pushing it in Congress counterpunch.org/2018/12/24/…@NatCounterPunch

Daniel Ellsberg retweeted
In an #interview with #ConsortiumNews Editor-in-Chief Joe Lauria (@unjoe), Pentagon Papers whistleblower @DanielEllsberg says the Espionage Act, under which he was indicted, cannot apply to Julian #Assange because he is a #journalist. Watch it here: consortiumnews.com/2018/09/0…
