Back at work for the first time in 17 days. Left my computer at home. I think it’s a sign from the Universe that I should not have gone back to work. I don’t make the rules.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

Call me old fashioned, but I have a certain nostalgia for political parties that believe in a peaceful transfer of power (and not insurrections).

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

What we are witnessing is a system functioning as designed and protecting those it was designed for.

My heart still breaks for the communities and families whose grief now compounds, and the countless others who will be denied and deprived in similar scenes across the country.

Anybody else NOT HAD A COLD IN 15 MONTHS!!!!!!!!!????

[JenHatmaker @JenHatmaker]

I am just bawling. We can't call it justice, because George is still murdered. His family will never see him again. The trauma inflicted on the black community is irreversible. But we can call it accountability. I just realized I sweat through my shirt waiting.

It should not be easier to buy an AR-15 than it is to vote.

Interesting thread. I was in CA visiting my nieces & had a convo with my SIL that this “couldn’t be that big of a deal, right?” The day I flew home, my nieces schools closed & my university announced an extended spring break turned closure. Turns out, it’s a big deal.

We all have #TheMoment when we knew things were going to be different. Where were you and what were you thinking a year ago? We are one year into this pandemic. Tell us @NPR @NPRWeekend

[JenHatmaker @JenHatmaker]

Governor Abbott blamed wind and solar power for the catastrophic blackouts in Texas. 90% of our power comes from fossil fuels. He projected this failure onto the impending Green New Deal.

All on Hannity.

This tells you everything you need to know about Texas leadership.

[Sherrod Brown @SenSherrodBrown]

376 days ago, I wrote this op-ed about the cowardice of Senate Republicans.

It's still true.

[Mary L Trump @MaryLTrump]

The republicans are on trial just as much as Donald is. So far--through their disrespect of the process (Hawley, Paul), ignoring the evidence (Blunt, Scott), and openly meeting with the defense team (Cruz, Graham, Lee)--they're not making a very good case for themselves. #Convict

Put these women in charge, @TheDemocrats!

[Stacey Abrams @staceyabrams]

What we accomplished in Georgia can be replicated in other states through consistent organizing, investing in state parties, and playing the long game towards victory. @gwlauren and I explain in @nytimes: https://t.co/yRRW3b6r5G

[Molly D. @IAm_MollyD]

Gross. I’d like Josh Mandel to go away for good. Please @OHDems, find someone to run who can beat this piece of garbage!

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

The risk isn't that we do too much when it comes to a COVID relief package — it's that we don't do enough.

We have to go big.

[Molly D. @IAm_MollyD]

One more time for the people in the back...we’re still in a damn pandemic!

[Douglas Emhoff Archived @SecondGent46]

I am honored to be the first male spouse of an American President or Vice President. But I'll always remember generations of women have served in this role before me—often without much accolade or acknowledgment. It’s their legacy of progress I will build on as Second Gentleman.

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

I've waited a long time to say this:

Mitch McConnell is no longer Senate Majority Leader.
