Today I endorse @JoeBiden for president. This trying time for our country has made crystal clear that elections matter and that we need a strong, honest, and compassionate leader in the White House. Donald Trump is not that person; we must defeat him in November.
@VodkaMuse I am a Biden supporter. However I understand how you feel and many other that are Sanders supporters. We're suppose to believe in our team and team captain. I believe that together all of us on the same team w/the Ultimate goal to restore our Country can win!
The sudden removal & replacement of Acting IG Glenn Fine is part of a disturbing pattern of retaliation by the President against independent overseers fulfilling their duties to conduct oversight on behalf of the American people. https://t.co/4QmyMdJ1S9
Trumps firing of Michael Atkinson can only be construed two ways; either as an admission of guilt or...oh, right...
It’s actually just an admission of guilt.
Mr. President, when you've been in office for more than three years, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to blame the previous administration for not being prepared for something that happened on your watch.
Jared Kushner is in charge of the medical supply chain that delivers critical items to the doctors and nurses who are on the frontlines everyday. Yesterday he said it was “OURS”, so I asked what he meant. Trump did not like the question.
Vote-by-mail is essential to protecting the future of our democracy as we confront this public health crisis. There is no legitimate argument against enacting it. #LSSC
Dear Jared Kushner of the @realDonaldTrump Administration: We are the UNITED STATES of America. The federal stockpile is reserved for all Americans living in our states, not just federal employees. Get it?
We have no right to even pay respects to frontline medical workers if we can’t get them the equipment they need to stay safe and save lives. President Trump must use the full power of the Defense Production Act to meet their needs. #AMR#FamiliesFirst
In addition to the ventilators HHS hasn't told them to send anywhere, DOD also has more than a dozen labs that could process COVID-19 tests. They offered the labs to HHS for civilian use **more than two weeks ago**. HHS never bothered to put them to use:

President Trump today at the White House said to me: “Be nice. Don't be threatening.”
I’m not the first human being, woman, black person or journalist to be told that while doing a job.
My take: Be steady. Stay focused. Remember your purpose. And, always press forward.
This is an obscenity.
"The prospect of 2 million deaths seemed to stick with Trump because he repeated the statistic 16 times at Sunday’s news conference."

We cannot deny the facts on the ground. We owe it to those working to save lives to quickly ramp up testing and deliver personal protective equipment. #FamiliesFirst#CNNSOTU
I am issuing this challenge to the President: in the next 48 hours, direct the production and distribution of respirator masks, gloves, protective face shields and gowns to fill every supply request made by a governor to the federal government.
Lives are at stake.
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has done nothing but stand up for people of our state, especially our front-line health providers. It’s troubling for the president to suggest that his administration would be less responsive to any state because of differences with its governor.
The President’s attempts to avoid oversight are a surprise to no one. Rest assured: the Congress will exercise its oversight responsibilities. #FamiliesFirst#TRMS
The Senate Republicans’ bill put corporations first, not workers & families. Today, @HouseDemocrats will unveil a bill that takes responsibility for the health, wages & well-being of America’s workers: the Take Responsibility for Workers & Families Act. https://t.co/WbHY9CNGFa
