We just received another grim warning that the problem of hate is growing in the United States. For the third year in a row, the FBI has reported a jump in hate crimes.

The new data showed that they increased by a staggering 17% in 2017. washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost…
It is no secret that Trump is bringing out the worst in this country.

At every turn he has struggled or refused to condemn instances of hate. That was painfully obvious during #Charlottesville in 2017 and the #PittsburghSynagogue shooting just over two weeks ago.
Congress must act if Trump will not.

That is why I introduced the NO HATE Act in 2016 with @SenBlumenthal. It will give law enforcement additional tools to track and fight hate crimes.

We cannot let this continue.

THREAD: Body Language Analysis No. 4355: Comparing Donald Trump & the Tree of Life Synagogue to Ronald Reagan & the Challenger Disaster • • #BodyLanguage #BodyLanguageExpert #Nonverbal #EmotionalIntelligence #PittsburghSynagogue #TreeOfLifeSynagogue #EQ
1/ There's one crucial expression Donald Trump never once displayed during any of his statements regarding the recent mass shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh.
2/ It's certainly an expression he should have made - for it's indicative of the emotions of sadness, grief - and importantly, the empathy one feels for other peoples' suffering. This is true regardless of whether their suffering is emotional, physical, or both.

Sylvan and Bernice Simon were murdered in the same synagogue they got married at 60 years ago.
They lived and spread more happiness and joy in one day than trump and his nazis can experience in a lifetime. #PittsburghSynagogue #TreeofLifeSynogogue

Half oktober vertrok een migrantenkaravaan van ca. 7000 mensen - ‘the caravan’ - vanuit Honduras richting de VS. Sindsdien voeden mensen met autoriteit op landelijke nieuwszenders complottheorieën: the caravan wordt door Soros betaald, het zijn geen vluchtelingen maar ‘criminals’
en ‘invaders’. Ze zouden worden gestuurd door de ‘Zionist Occupied Government’ van de VS (de Am. overheid geïnfiltreerd door joden), etc. Het lijkt erop (obv sociale media-gedrag vd verdachte) dat de aanslagpleger op de synagoge door deze complottheorieën werd gemotiveerd.
Zelfs tijdens en na deze (grootste antisemitische) aanslag in de VS van gisteren, gaan de bizarre aantijgingen door. Het neonazistische Stormfront plaatst letterlijk een smoelenboek van joodse mensen in Amerikaanse media (CNN, NYT ed)
