I want to thank the 800 people in Portland, Maine who joined me this morning at a high-energy rally.
We must defeat Trump, elect VP @KamalaHarris, and create a government that works for all, not just the 1%.
@cemaynus Back to class where we talked about what really happened. Many kids went home but school wasn’t officially cancelled, so I stayed all day talking about it & seeing the updates on tv. Many knew fam/friends in NYC, but not me. Quite an intense day
@cemaynus 8th grade, English class. We had an announcement for a school-wide assembly in the gym, & our teacher was surprised/worried bc usually she’d know when mtgs etc happen. In the gym, could barely hear the announcements, and I thought it was a big terrible car crash or something /1
Ok here we go.
Look at the electoral maps by county for the last few decades of US presidential elections. You’ll notice that the South goes almost uniformly Republican red every time.
Duh.

My husband John lived by a code: country first. We are Republicans, yes, but Americans foremost. There's only one candidate in this race who stands up for our values as a nation, and that is @JoeBiden.
Ruthie was my friend and I will miss her terribly. The t-shirts simply labeled “RBG” made her notorious. But it was her wit, her tenaciousness, and her skill as a jurist that made her an icon.
This needs to be retweeted by as many people as possible everyday until Inauguration Day. The press mustn’t let @LindseyGrahamSC wriggle out of this commitment. #KeepYourPromiseSenatorGraham
I support the #CORPSAct, a bipartisan bill that will expand and strengthen @AmeriCorps and @SeniorCorps to help communities respond to and recover from #COVID19. I’m counting on Congress to take a #Stand4Service and include the #CORPSAct in the next COVID-19 relief package.
