Formal declaration to come, but clear now that @theSNP has won the Euro election emphatically – we are on course to take 3 out of 6 seats. A historic victory. And Scotland has rejected Brexit again. 🏴🇪🇺🏴

Forget the focus groups and the polls. Voters want one thing from Dems (and media, everyone else): Moral courage. Hardball tactics like impeachment are only way to handle a lawless bully like Trump, and the right thing to do. My new column https://t.co/Jv9hNpMGVM
