@franklinisbored @KamalaHQ I was thinking the same thing!

Cole and Ella keep us inspired to make the world a better place. I do it through storytelling. Kamala Harris has spent her entire career working for the people, ALL families. That keeps you pretty humble.

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

Let’s be clear: This is illegal and unconstitutional. The American people had voted. The courts had ruled. The Electoral College had met and voted. The Governor in every state had certified the results and sent a legal slate of electors to the Congress to be counted. The Vice President has no constitutional authority to tell states to submit alternative slates of electors because his candidate lost. That is tyranny. Our institutions held on Jan 6 because Mike Pence refused to violate his oath to the Constitution. Trump picked JD Vance because Vance will do whatever Trump wants, including violating the Constitution. They are both far too dangerous to serve. It’s our duty to stop them.

Dick Van Dyke on how he wants to be remembered after winning an Emmy last night at the age of 98.

“For laughter. For making people laugh for 75 years, I’ve been in the business for 75 years, I can’t believe it that I’m still here & performing! I’m looking for work if anyone’s interested”

@marcsnetiker Big Bang Theory quote: Sheldon: The Dr. Doom to my Mr. Fantastic, the Dr. Octopus to my Spider-Man, the Dr. Sivana to my Captain Marvel...You know, it's amazing how many super villains have advanced degrees. Graduate schools should do a better job of screening those people out.
