Our prayers are with Danny Glover and his family following his Alzheimer's diagnosis. For decades, Danny has used his voice not only to entertain, but to fight for justice, equality, and human dignity. His courage in sharing this diagnosis reminds us that Alzheimer's touches millions of families and that those living with it deserve compassion and support.

🔥 This woman just asked Trump supporters one question that completely shut them down:
“What is Trump conserving for you guys?”
Then she went in:
1. Swears on the Bible as a political stunt but never goes to church
2. On his 3rd wife + cheated on his pregnant wife (hush money felonies)
3. Increased the national debt by $2 trillion while making $1.5 billion for himself.
She ended with: “I don’t even know what Trump is conservative about anymore. Any ideas?”
The silence was loud. 📢
This one’s going viral for a reason:

We're not crying, you are.🥹
Michelle Obama stepped to that podium and gave her husband every single flower he deserved. She spoke directly to Barack and brought him to tears.
This is what love and legacy look like. 🖤
Young teenage boys in the park, enjoying the park and yes, white supremacist are uncomfortable so they call the police and forced them out of the park. Freedom and liberty in America.
American citizenship is a privilege.
It’s simple: if you obtain citizenship illegally, and lie in your immigration proceedings, you forfeit that privilege.
Aaron Tucker had been out of prison for seven days. He had less than $2 in his pocket and one shot at turning his life around, a job interview that morning. Then he saw a car flip over and catch fire from his bus window.
He asked the bus driver if he was going to help. "No, but if you get out I'm going to leave," the driver replied. Tucker got out anyway.
He sprinted toward the upside-down, smoke-filled car and found the 61-year-old driver covered in blood.
He unbuckled the man's seatbelt and dragged him clear as the car started to catch fire.
He pulled off his own dress shirt and used it to stop the man's head wound from bleeding, telling him: "You're going to be all right. Your family wants to see you. Keep your eyes open."
The bus left. Tucker missed his interview.
When the story got out, strangers set up a GoFundMe that raised over $50,000 in three days. He also received multiple job offers in construction.
"I feel like a job can come and go, but a life is a one-time thing," Tucker said. "The job just wasn't in my mind at that time."
A 1-year-old child is dead after police officers in Mississippi opened fire on a vehicle in a crowded Walmart parking lot in Senatobia. His mother, who has not been charged with any crime, says she was trying to communicate to officers that there was a baby in the car. They fired anyway, leading to the death of an innocent 1-year-old. We intend to seek justice for baby Kohen and the life that was stolen from him.
This is the same guy who admitted that he pushed the lie about Haitians eating cats because that’s the only way to get the media to care about the people of Springfield, Ohio. So he’s got some nerve calling anybody else terrible.
He also wasn’t talking this way when he was on The View. Just a total phony.
Chicago, it’s good to be home!
Michelle and I built the Obama Presidential Center to be a place where people of all ages can learn, play, and work – and we can't wait to welcome you all later this week!
