“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect.  All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.

Just seems appropriate today.

2/2 No more excuses or writing off the #Republicans & MAGA as “dumb”. For the next 4 years, #Dems need to work. Stop demeaning, figure out how to re-assure and appeal to them or this is just 1 more election of many that will erode 1 of the strongest democracies on this planet.

[Max Irwin @MaxIrwin97]

1/2 This!! I think that Trump is the worst display of humanity and is the single biggest risk to America. HOWEVER, he is appealing to a US demographic that are desperate to hold on to their “American values” and are scared of what the Left is going to do if they are elected.

I voted for her. I think he’s a bad guy.

But if you lose the senate, house, electoral college AND popular vote, and you think the lesson is half the country is racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, and stupid… wrong lesson. And the same thing will likely happen in 2028.

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

For her.
For all our daughters and sons.
For America. 🇺🇸

BREAKING: @dellavolpe calculates that the record-breaking turnout among voters between 18-29-years-old canceled out *every voter* above the age of 65. Gen Z literally saved democracy. And going forward, there is no path to victory for Democrats without young voters. Full stop.

During his inaugural address in 2019, Zelensky told lawmakers: “I do not want my picture in your offices: the President is not an icon, an idol or a portrait. Hang your kids' photos instead, and look at them each time you are making a decision.”

[Richard Branson @richardbranson]

Yes, it’s the weekend. But in Ukraine it’s anything but a weekend. Think for a minute of the children, the mums and dads, the young men and women bravely trying to defend their country, the wounded and the dying. Let all our thoughts be with them all this weekend.
