.@ZelenskyyUa's tv address to the Russian (!) people might be the most moving speech that I've ever seen in my entire life. The whole world needs to see, understand and share this crucial Ukrainian message.

A gem from Prof. Heckman, discussing the origins of his intellectual interests and contributions to economics: “the pursuit of the prosaic is often the seed of the profound.”

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

If Republicans have suddenly begun to deeply value and prioritize bipartisanship in Washington, they can start by supporting $2k checks and retroactive unemployment for people. Then it will be bipartisan 🌞

[Elizabeth Hoffecker @ehoffecker]

Setting a new tone and work ethic right from the start. That’s how it’s done!

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

There is no time to waste when it comes to tackling the crises we face. That's why today, I am heading to the Oval Office to get right to work delivering bold action and immediate relief for American families.

[Ayanna Pressley @AyannaPressley]

Somehow we weathered and witnessed
A nation that isn't broken
but simply unfinished
There is always light
if only we're brave enough to see it
if only we're brave enough to be it.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

GOP lawmakers who refuse to go through Capitol metal detectors only a week after the assault must not be allowed back into their offices. What kind of behavior is this from lawmakers? They have responsibilities to their fellow members of Congress.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

As the Capitol was stormed for all to see,
The president laughed and watched TV.

Impeach.

[Elizabeth Hoffecker @ehoffecker]

America under Donald Trump. Not greater, just more afraid.

[Kenneth Moton @KennethMoton]

Wow. Just incredible...

[Elizabeth Hoffecker @ehoffecker]

@jaketapper @HC_Richardson He deserves all of it and more.

[Brad Heath @bradheath]

One of the guys charged during the Capitol siege just told the judge that he's a federal employee.

[Jake Tapper 🦅 @jaketapper]

A private publisher dropping a book bc it disapproves of an author’s actions has nothing to do with the First Amendment.

Either Hawley — who went to Yale Law and clerked for Justice Roberts — doesn’t know that.

OR he has such disdain for you he’s lying with abandon.

[Elizabeth Hoffecker @ehoffecker]

Let’s stop passing around memes of animal cosplay dude and focus on people like this guy, who’s clearly all business. Yeah, there were a bunch of fools in the mob, but also some people clearly intending to get violent. This guy is a terrorist, plain and simple.

[Robert Cohen 🌻 @DocOrgone]

@fortunefunny Showing up with zip ties is a clear indication you intended to take hostages. This is life in prison and nothing less.

This is important work. And satisfying to see it going down in real time. https://t.co/Xvx2w5edXj
