It’s now been one year without my friend Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.

Melissa was a true public servant who dedicated her life to serving Minnesotans with integrity and compassion. May we all be instruments of peace like Melissa.

[Gabrielle Giffords @GabbyGiffords]

Today, I’m mourning my friend Melissa and her husband Mark, as we mark one year since they were assassinated in their home. Melissa was a dedicated public servant who worked every day to improve the lives of Minnesotans. That should never have cost her or her husband their lives.

Being elected to serve our communities should never be life-threatening. From state legislatures to the White House, it’s time for our leaders to stand against armed political violence.

My heart is in Minnesota and with Sophie, Colin, and the entire Hortman family as they continue to grieve this tragic loss.

[Mayor Jacob Frey @MayorFrey]

One year ago, our state was shattered by the assassination of Melissa and Mark Hortman.

Melissa believed our differences could be worked through. Her life’s work was bringing people together and proving that democracy is strongest when we choose dialogue over division.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Sentenced and imprisoned on grounds of “terrorism” that no jury ever convicted them of.

Meanwhile, the British government continues to aid and abet the greatest crime of our time.

A historic miscarriage of justice — and a truly dark day for civil liberties in this country.

President Barack Obama reacts to U.S. action in Iran as the two sides get closer to a peace deal: “It is doubtful that any agreement that arises is going to be significantly different or a significant improvement from the deal that we had in the first place.”

Solidarity to Grenfell survivors who suffer the eternal pain of loss, nine years on.

72 people died because of corporate greed and negligence. We still do not have justice.

In unity we must defeat austerity & privatisation for good — and defend housing as a human right for all.

I was heartbroken to learn of the tragic road accident in Mapleton Township, Ontario, on Friday evening that took the lives of five children and left many more injured.

My thoughts are with the family and their loved ones as they face this horrific tragedy, and with the people of Elmira and Mapleton. I offer my sincere thanks to the first responders for their swift action and support of those who were injured.

Churches across Nigeria are holding interdenominational services to mourn thousands killed in violence or kidnapped by armed groups, raids and abductions.

June 14th has been declared “Black Sunday” to demand action.

Kinda funny that "certain" people were predicting Sharia Law & mass population exodus in NYC from the Mamdani era, and instead it's like the most joyous the city has ever been 😂

We miss you, and think of you often.

Session is wrapped. Spring is in bloom. I’m retiring soon. You two would have thrived in retirement. I trust you’re living it now.

We have our arms wrapped around your kids. They’re remarkable. We love them.
