60 Minutes was chilling tonight. Grateful for the work they’re doing for a massive audience. Scott Pelley leading tonight’s segment - without fear or favor - on law firms bending a knee. Please make sure to share widely. This matters.

There is one critical takeaway here. Kamala Harris was not the problem. She had great policy. She had strong values. She had a superb message. She had a stellar ground game. She had immense energy and compassion and love for America. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

Probably the most prescient take on what has just happened, and on the lessons still not learned

I wrote this in November 2016. This is still the main advice I'd give today.

“What’s happening in North Carolina doesn’t feel real. I have no emotional framework for this, no story to help me. Right now, what I desperately need are authentic stories that help us figure out how to be human in this changing world, to face this overwhelming crisis with bravery. Stories that help us navigate our very understandable fear, anxiety, grief, despair, uncertainty and anger in a way that allows us to feel seen.”

What has happened in the USA 🇺🇸 in the last week or so is tragic. No part of this planet 🌏 is SAFE! This summer here in Switzerland 🇨🇭 where the Alps are 2 degrees warmer - communities were shocked to seek mudslides and floods in places where they have never happened. #ChangeIsHere

We now know Kamala’s brave story. When did the rest of you “turn” black? How old were you? Where were you when the blackness finally took over your body? Share your stories. This is a safe space. #WhenITurnedBlack
