Ossoff: "Mike Collins is a bigot and antisemite under federal investigation for the illegal misuse of tax dollars, widely known as a man of poor character who lacks the judgment and integrity to serve in the Senate."

Could not agree more! Not only did Hillary beat the Orange Atrocity by 2.8 MILLION votes, but Al Gore got 543,895 MORE votes than Bush! The Electoral College allows candidates who received less votes to win the presidency. ABOLISH THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

Wow! Iran left a thank you note in their locker room thanking LA for its hospitality during the World Cup. Be sure you read the last line: “May peace, respect, and friendship prevail among all nations.” (Source: Reuters)

Michelle and I loved reading to this bright group of kids today! We hope this new Chicago Public Library branch at the Obama Presidential Center will be a place where folks come to read, check out books, and connect with one another for years to come.

Juneteenth marks the celebration of America's second independence day. Like the people in this photo—Texans celebrating Juneteenth in 1900—we know that progress hasn't made our union perfect. But we can recommit to reaching toward that more perfect union together. Happy Juneteenth.

Michelle Obama: You were doing the people's work, rescuing our economy, expanding health care, ending a war, ordering the bin laden raid, saving an auto industry, winning a peace prize.

History. Hope. Grace. The Obamas reminded us that leadership can be intelligent, compassionate, and inspiring. Their legacy continues…

This is the REAL truth !!

Meanwhile at the White Trash White House last night the main event wasn’t even in the ring. Fights were breaking out on the lawn everywhere under the light of fireworks. Not since the White House burned down in 1814 have we seen so many battles. Sign! 🤡

The decisions made by state supreme courts touch every part of our lives. And that’s especially important when voting rights and basic freedoms are being challenged. Today voters in Georgia can stand up for fairness and integrity by electing Miracle Rankin and Jen Jordan to Georgia’s Supreme Court.

Exactly! There are consequences for everyone else because of the bad behavior and evil of bigots and vile people. It's past time

There have to be consequences. Severe consequences. We can’t continue to live in a society where people can endorse or engage in criminality, indecency, cruelty, and bigotry with no consequence. It’s as if the seeming weightlessness of words online has somehow migrated to the real world.

Charlie Kirk dropped out of community college and then told millions of American youth that higher education is a liberal scam. His banner should NOT be hanging from the Dept of Education right now. Holy fuck

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has passed away at the age of 84. My thoughts are with his family. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Buttigieg on Fox News: "When you see an American woman opening the door to her home and on her doorstep finds half a dozen federal agents in tactical gear that is more tricked out than what I would take outside the wire in Afghanistan -- I think most people get that that is wrong."

You have to adopt the mentality that collective action leads to results. Your single action is not going to change the world and you have to be okay with that. But know that millions of other people are taking the same small steps that you are and it adds up.

DON’T LOOK AWAY: Masked ICE agents chasing a family through the snow in Minneapolis while a mother clutches her baby. A child films from upstairs because that’s all they can do. This is America.

Google this question: Which party had the best economy from FDR to Donald Trump? Which party has put the United States deeper in debt since FDR? It's not politics; it's just factual numbers. It is factual reality.
