I talked about this throughout my campaign. I’m sickened by the thought that we’d make a deal with the Taliban that has no provisions regarding Afghani women. It’s a moral outrage.

American women should be a moral force, beginning with standing for the rights of women & children everywhere. Taliban’s brutality towards women was an issue even before 9/11; we mustn’t let up our vigilance regarding their protection in any way possible.mailchi.mp/marianne2020/wome…

Which is why I'm disappointed that you endorsed a man, instead of an equally qualified woman, for President. #ElizabethWarren

I love Elizabeth. My endorsing Bernie doesn’t mean I don’t love Elizabeth. But I don’t see any reason for us to be “disappointed” in each other. Each of us has to follow our own internal guidance for what’s best at this moment. Particularly now when we’re all on the same team.

Then please feel free to fight for the Afghan's rights. After 19 years, we are overdue to leave. BTW, where were you when Obama abandoned the Syrians to Assad and Putin's tender mercies, and 500,000 (so far) died?

You're absolutely right, Marianne. ❤️

We also need to not let Trump paint Saudi Arabia as a win for women’s rights because some of them are allowed to drive now

Yes, I remember reading about them in the late 90s. Terrible.

I agree. We must recognize the war on women on every level, and then support them on every level. In my opinion, this is the core problem and core solution.
