[Ambassador Mike Waltz @USAmbUN]

Today we joined nearly 200 nations in standing behind science and approved the UN IPCC Report. Just this summer, the world witnessed the extreme effects of climate change. We must act with urgency to protect our planet for all of us and future generations.

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

We have to do better than this, DC.

Can’t keep doing the same things, say it’s always been this way, and expect different results.

Very excited to return to government today and join the great @DFCgov team as the senior advisor to the president!

Grateful for this opportunity to help expand innovative public-private partnerships to drive sustainable development as an integral part of U.S. foreign policy.

Today, the work begins.

[Jake Sullivan @jakejsullivan]

The news from Uganda is deeply concerning. Bobi Wine, other political figures, and their supporters should not be harmed, and those who perpetrate political violence must be held accountable. After this flawed election, the world is watching. https://t.co/P3huBLc551

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

@kylegriffin1 That's one of the many important and unanswered questions they must investigate. Here are the others I think they should consider. (from @just_security)

*#UGANDA UPDATE*

Just spoke to @HEBobiwine. House remains surrounded by the military - "the presence has increased." The internet remains shut off, they are living in constant fear.

Word also coming in that his colleague, MP @ZaakeFrancis, has been badly beaten (perhaps worse).

[Christiane Amanpour @amanpour]

The world is watching.

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

U.S. and international journalists, please investigate and draw attention to what is happening right now in #Uganda.

[BOBI WINE @HEBobiwine]

We are under siege. The military has jumped over the fence and has now taken control of our home

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

Thinking of the people of #Uganda and hoping for a peaceful morning and election results that reflect their tireless work to create a more democratic future. #UgandaElections

Here's my call for a national commission to investigate the #Capitol attack and the questions I think should guide it.

Thanks @just_security!

Congress should establish a commission to investigate Wednesday's security collapse and make recommendations to prevent it from happening again.

@kyle_a_murphy with six key questions to guide that investigation.

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

Excellent thread.

Bottom line, it's vitally important to correctly diagnose the problem we have--violent white supremacy--to get the solutions right.

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

Yes. 👇

[Kamau M. Marshall @kamaumarshall]

"No one can tell me that if it had been a group of Black Lives Matters protestors, they wouldn’t have been treated very, very differently than the mob of thugs that stormed the Capitol. We all know that’s true. And that is unacceptable. Totally unacceptable."

-@JoeBiden

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

Let's be crystal clear. There were overwhelming indicators that yesterday's events were not only imaginable but probable.

Security service leaders saying anything different have no credibility.

"We call on all community associations in the District of Columbia and nationwide to speak-out in defense of our democracy and join our community in taking action to address these existential challenges."

[Kyle Murphy @kyle_a_murphy]

Proud to be part of this community.

"We are outraged by the violent extremist attacks on the U.S. Capitol today....Though these abhorrent events happened just blocks away from our community, they could not be farther from the values we stand for..."

"Systemic racism undermines democracy and must be fully dismantled if our country is to live up to its founding ideals and thrive. Civil society organizations, including ours, have an important role to play in perfecting our union."
