I’m proud to have joined Minnesotans in exercising our fundamental American freedoms - of speech, assembly, to disagree with our government. These rights are enshrined in our Constitution. And, they are what makes America great.

At least 200 labor activists, union members, and community activists rallied outside of Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, on Father’s Day to show solidarity with the parents detained in Delaney Hall and their families.

Some Democrats think the party has gone too far left and needs to readjust towards the “center.” Rubbish. Where’s the center between democracy and oligarchy, and why would Democrats want to be there?

Never did I think I would see a cure for sickle cell in my lifetime. A friend of mine in fifth grade died from this disease. My parents kept me home from the funeral because they thought I was too young to handle it. Modern science is a miracle. www.wafb.com/2026/06/23/n...

💰 @grahamformaine.bsky.social PLATNER: “Wall Street’s takeover of our economy wasn’t an accident... We are living in a system operating exactly as intended… policy choices made by establishment politicians in the service of people who donated the most money to them. And it needs to end.”

Is it Pegasus swooping in to save me from this unbearable heat… or possibly a Phoenix blasting scorching air? Or maybe the heat has addled my brain? Pretty clouds though. Hope you have as comfortable a night as possible. 🤗

🚨 House passes sweeping bill to lower housing costs The vote is 358-32. The Senate passed it 85-5. Trump expected to sign it. Funding to build; empowers local gov’ts to streamline reviews; restricts Wall Street from buying up homes. It’s a big deal. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Here’s another angle of the privately funded Obama Center continuing to reflect beautifully. 💙

Mayor Mamdani at the Knicks Ceremony: “We as the city are often forced to come together in the moments in tragedy, what a blessing it is to come together in a moment of joy.” Made me cry, because it’s true.

Wow, so beautiful

Today it is 43 years since Sally Ride became the first woman and lesbian astronaut to visit space! She's without a doubt my favorite astronaut, and truly an icon

Michelle Obama appreciation post just because.

My God. The opening ceremony of the Obama Center is a beautiful display of American hope, diversity, and integrity. What a contrast to the pathetically stupid display at the White House last weekend.

Up at the cabin. Another beautiful day in Colorado!

“A major flu outbreak has sickened nearly 160 troops at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A powerful moment. President Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, the Clintons, and the Bushes, heads bowed together in prayer. Not divided by politics, but united in prayer.

Our national security isn’t being talked about enough. Yesterday we told the world how weak we are and now this. There’s nothing to stop say, the Middle East countries, from uniting (with a little China, Russia assistance) and taking us on. It was the Saudis on 9/11. Scary times

Michelle Obama to Barack: "How absurd it is to even imagine that you might have buckled under the pressure even once. Lashed out in frustration. Lost your temper. How absurd it is to imagine that you might have done anything but make our family and this entire country proud."

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

Beautiful garden in Oita, Japan 🇯🇵

I’d almost forgotten how exhilarating it is to hear a real president speak.
