My fellow Americans: Please direct your attention to this matter for just a moment. Allow this to sink in. The President of the United States of America just said he wants to ban the free press. He said he doesn��t want them in his office, which by the way is the Oval Office in the People’s House. This is unheard of, and we the people cannot let this be!
For the record, we have a free press in this country. For the record we should all be worried not just about this latest outburst, but by all of it going forward without permission — putting our service members in harms way, raising tariffs willy nilly, threatening buildings and institutions unless his name gets put on them. This is not the behavior of a centered leader who is focused on the good of the people. This is not the behavior of a compassionate leader focused on the millions of Americans who cannot afford healthcare, childcare, gas, or food. This is not the behavior of a man who can emotionally regulate himself.
We should all be concerned — those who voted for him and those who didn’t. The midterms are around the corner. Vote like your life and the lives of others are at stake, because they are. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Gloria Steinem will go down in history as one of the most important activists of all time, leading a movement for the equality of half the world: its women.
She lived a long and passionate life dedicated to this vital and basic cause.
She did it with intellectual precision, emotional awareness, humour and beauty. May she rest in peace and may the cause thrive.
@SenatorCollins Susan Collins is responsible for the tariffs, ICE killing us, women being stripped of reproductive health options, rural hospitals closing, tens of thousands being stripped of health care, and the defiance of releasing Epstein files. She is a Republican and votes for them 100%.
@SenatorCollins Senator, I stopped believing in any of your words and have watched your actions! You help create this insanity - Canada as an enemy, how pathetic can this administration be?
Birthright citizenship is more than a law...it is a promise that if you are born here, you belong here.
On the eve of America's 250th birthday, may we always keep this promise: "We The People" means all of us.
Imagine Trump ever being invited to join a photo like this — not in a million years.
Four presidents. Zero drama. Just smiles, respect, and a shared love of country. 🇺🇸
To George and Laura, Bill and Hillary — we're grateful for your friendship, counsel, and devotion to this country. And to Joe and Jill, thank you for being on this journey with us.
Today, Hillary and I were honored to be on the South Side of Chicago to celebrate the opening of the Obama Presidential Center. The Obama Center tells the story of eight years of progress, and is a stirring reminder of the power—and responsibility—we have as citizens shape a better future.
Congratulations, Barack and Michelle, on this extraordinary accomplishment!
Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, alongside former first ladies, pose for a photo at the opening ceremony of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago today.
Trump was not invited.
