Kamala Harris didn't lose, America did.
As a nation, we collectively failed her—and in doing so we failed girls and women, the LGBTQ community, people of color, Muslims, Jewish people, immigrants, the sick, the poor, the elderly, the people of Ukraine, and Gaza, and the planet.
It's unthinkable, that instead of being able to celebrate a beautiful, hopeful new chapter in the story of this nation with a leader who appealed to the best of our natures—we will instead be holding a postmortem for democracy as we enter our 250th year, stewarded by a malevolent sociopath who despises empathy and shuns the law.
I truly thought we were better than this, that our shared humanity would show up. I thought we would reject this hatred and ugliness once and for all.
I hate being wrong about the majority of the people of this nation.
I don't know what's ahead. All I know is that good-hearted human beings are more necessary now than ever.
We did all that we could to avoid this moment, but now that it's here we'll just have to decide who we will be.
There is no way to comprehend or measure how grievous an error this is, but the only thing the decent people of this nation can do is wake up tomorrow and fight like hell for what we still believe is worth the fight, and we will.
I'll be doing that with whoever has the strength to join me.
I'm mourning the country we could have been and the one we apparently are—but I refuse to give up believing that compassion is the right path, that diversity makes us better, and that love is greater than fear.

Building on the success of MassReconnect, we’re establishing MassEducate, which will make community college free in Massachusetts.
It will be the most comprehensive free Community College program in America.
The next president will have the opportunity to replace 3 conservative SCOTUS justices in their 70s— Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, John Roberts. If it’s Trump, he will appoint 40-year-old judges in their mold who will serve for decades. This election is not about Joe Biden; it’s about ensuring we are not plagued with a far right court for the rest of our lives.
I'm so very proud to be gay.
I love myself and I hope you love yourself. Whoever you love. However you identify. Love yourself.
You matter.
Happy Pride, everyone.
