Every Democrat should vote NO! All of them.

Reminder: DHS legislation that funds ICE at current levels without policy restrictions is in the Senate and needs 60 votes to pass. Deadline is next Friday.

[Phil Gordon @PhilGordonDC]

A candid and fair observation by Carney that the story of the “rules-based order” was “partially false” and that rules were “asymmetrically enforced.” And yet we may soon come to miss that imperfect order as we enter a world of no order at all.

His capacity to translate policy to everyday life just keeps getting better

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

Everyday life in America will get better and more affordable - once we, the people, realize how to use our political power to make it happen.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

United States Senator Alex Padilla was representing the millions of Californians who are demanding answers to this Administration's actions in Southern California.

This is a shameful and stunning abuse of power.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Today, we mark the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday.

On that cold Sunday morning, 600 brave souls began their march from Selma to Montgomery. They were met with crushing violence, beaten by troopers with nightsticks and trampled by horses. And still, they returned to Selma and marched on, crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge determined to push our nation toward a future that was more equal, more just, and more free.

60 years later, we honor the legacy of those 600 brave souls, and we march on.

This work is not easy, and we cannot do it alone. Together, we recommit to our fight to safeguard the freedom to vote. Together, we must stand for democracy. Together, we must continue our fight for justice, equality, and opportunity for all.

@CapehartJ: "I mean, you know there's enthusiasm when the marching band shows up."

“Pride is patriotism,” @VP said. “There is nothing more patriotic than celebrating freedom, which includes the freedom to love who you love and be who you are.” https://t.co/ttVh14QXWC

Happy Pride, America.

This month, in the face of cruel attacks on LGBTQI+ rights across the country, we celebrate the LGBTQI+ Americans who are fiercely and unapologetically fighting for freedom and equality – and reaffirm that their rights are human rights.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Every generation has a moment where they have had to stand up for democracy. To stand up for their fundamental freedoms. I believe this is ours.

That’s why I’m running for reelection as President of the United States. Join us. Let’s finish the job. https://t.co/V9Mzpw8Sqy

[Karine Jean-Pierre Archived @PressSec46]

The passage of the Anti-Homosexuality Act by the Parliament of Uganda is deeply concerning. This law would jeopardize progress in the fight against HIV/AIDS, deter tourism and investment in Uganda, and damage Uganda’s international reputation. Human rights are universal.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The entire world has a stake in the success of Brazil’s democracy. Together, we must reject any effort to overturn or disrupt the will of the Brazilian people and affirm the peaceful transfer of power as a cornerstone of democracy.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

The violent attack on the heart of the Brazilian government by right-wing extremists is a sad but familiar sight.

We stand with the people of Brazil and democracy.
