RT @AuforGA: If there was any question that the SAVE Act is a voter suppression bill designed to advantage the Republican party, here it is…

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

America is a constant work in progress. Every generation must take up the unfinished work of the last and carry it further—protecting what’s right, fixing what’s wrong, and making our union a little more perfect. 250 years later, that’s more important than ever.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Two hundred and fifty years ago, a group of Americans signed their names to a piece of parchment and made a promise no nation had ever made before: that we're all created equal, endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights — life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

We're the only nation in history built not on ethnicity, or blood, or geography but on an idea. That's always been what makes us exceptional. We chose that path 250 years ago but that’s where the work began, not where it ended. Every generation has had to choose it again. At Valley Forge, at Gettysburg, on the beaches of Normandy, in the streets of Selma. Americans recommitted themselves to the principles on which our nation was founded.

Now it's our turn.

There's nothing guaranteed about our democracy. We have to fight for it, defend it, and earn it. Over and over, year after year. That's not a burden. That's what it means to be an American.

250 years in, we still haven't fully lived up to those words in the Declaration. But we've never walked away from them, and this July 4, I hope all of us can commit to one thing: that we never will. I don't believe we're as divided as we're told we are. I've bet my whole life on the American people, and I'm not stopping now.

Happy 250th birthday, America. Our story isn't finished. Let's keep writing it together.

I love the fact that a non-zero number of World Cup announcers have forgotten to refer to Arrowhead as “Kansas City Stadium”.

[Awful Announcing @awfulannouncing]

"Cape Verde. Thank you, on behalf of the world. You made us dream and watch your dreams lived out in real time. We’ll never forget you. What a performance against the world champions."

- Fox analyst Stu Holden ⚽️🇨🇻🎙️

[Major League Soccer @MLS]

Argentina: Moving on.

Cape Verde: Heroic in defeat.

Our love for this game: ❤️‍🔥

[Jason Kander @JasonKander]

Cape Verde is the size of Kansas City.

I promise you there’s hardly a person in that country that doesn’t personally know at least one player on that team.

Can you imagine how proud they must be of them?

[Alyson @alamble]

When you leave Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimovic collectively stunned into silence, you know you’re doing something right. 😲 #WorldCup

[All On The Board @allontheboard]

For Taylor and Travis. Wishing you all the best and may you have many happy years together.

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

Did you know the department of energy deleted almost 6000 web pages on energy saving, all because they matched the advice Mamdani was giving in NYC?

It’s the world’s dumbest cult.
