Ted Lieu Is An Awesome Democrat. He Is Speaking Out & Deserves Praise

[KittyWampus]

Ted Lieu tells it like it is. DU'ers keep posting tweets from the man that are concise and to the point when it comes to confronting Trump and the Fascists.

Lieu, like Jason Kander, have bios and abilities that would be very beneficial to a Democratic POTUS candidate. Unfortunately, he was born in Taiwan. He currently holds the exalted Henry Waxman's former seat in the House.

The man does not equivocate yet doesn't seem inflammatory. He comes across very well on tv.

He was in the Air Force and currently serves in the reserves.

He has passed several laws in Congress.

As one of only four computer science majors currently serving in Congress, Ted is frequently sought out for his insight on technology and innovation matters including cybersecurity, cloud computing and innovation as well as the sharing and creative economy.


In the California State Senate- "Ted fought for California state tax reform that saved small businesses from millions in retroactive taxes, and tax incentives for film and TV production. Ted also co-authored California’s landmark Global Warming Solutions Act and co-authored the law banning state pension funds from investing in Iran’s nuclear and energy industries."



He refused to normalize Trump and attend his Inauguration:

He said Sessions lied under oath and should be held accountable:

1. Thanks for your post!

I feel very fortunate, for I got to vote for him more than once as he's come up through the ranks. My memory is faulty, but I believe he was a State Rep before he got to the House.

I love that he speaks for me and for so many like me.

3. I was a little sad to see he was born in Taiwan. But he has a bright future.
