Shame on @Delta for stranding my parents without a clear solution or travel plan. Aren’t you guys supposed to be the good ones?

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

This is not “the new normal”. The climate crisis will continue to escalate and get worse as long as we stick our heads in the sand and prioritise profit and greed over people and planet. We are still sleepwalking towards the edge.

No one @Delta thought to refuel this plane in the first 8 HOURS we were stuck here. So we’ve been sitting on the plane for ANOTHER HOUR waiting for that.

[Amanda Opuszynski @SopranoAmanda]

Diverted to Memphis for 8.5 HOURS and all @Delta gave us was a $15 meal voucher that was not accepted by any vendors in the airport. Not ok.

@ramosbugs 😍 Every fluff needs a cactus. (Also, 14?! My god)

The good thing about Science is that it’s true, whether or not you believe in it.

When people talk about Asian sex work in tones that suggest that the victims of Robert Aaron along were somehow “asking for it” because they were engaged in an illicit activity, they speak volumes about their own ignorance on why America has an Asian sex work trade to begin with.

@ROOTSPORTS_NW My husband asked me to tell you that Dave Sims sucks at calling baseball games. #whereiroot

[Stephen Colbert @StephenAtHome]

Tucker Carlson said Joe and Jill Biden's marriage is "as real as climate change." Because it's been around since the Carter administration, and it's only getting hotter?

A man who overcame a stutter, gives a stirring inaugural addresses. A man whose life has been torn by tragedy, summons hope. Anything is possible.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

It delights me to think that what feels historical and amazing to us today—a woman sworn in to the vice presidency—will seem normal, obvious, "of course" to Kamala's grand-nieces as they grow up. And they will be right.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Joe Biden will inherit from Trump: The worst economy since the Great Depression, the worst public health crisis in 100 years, massive wealth inequality, the existential threat of climate change, a racist immigration system. These unprecedented crises demand unprecedented action.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Let's just sit with this for a moment and what it means.

Tomorrow, Kamala Devi Harris will be the first woman sworn in as vice president of the United States.

No garbage collection today—because it’s MLK Day and because, this week, America’s taking out the trash on Wednesday.

[Jake Tapper 🦅 @jaketapper]

To be fair the comparisons aren’t quite accurate:

1) Nixon was never actually impeached; Trump was impeached twice
2) Nixon was re-elected
3) Nixon’s mood swings were at least partly because he was drinking

I’m sorry I meant to be fair to Nixon

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Here's how elected Republicans and conservative media can begin the healing and unifying process:

Accurately state that Joe Biden was duly elected president in a free and fair election.

Urge Trump supporters to refrain from further violence.

For a start.
