[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

What America saw today was the Kamala Harris I know and deeply admire.

She’s been a tremendous partner and public servant full of integrity, courage, and character.

Under extraordinary circumstances, she stepped up and led a historic campaign that embodied what’s possible when guided by a strong moral compass and a clear vision for a nation that is more free, more just, and full of more opportunities for all Americans.

As I’ve said before, selecting Kamala was the very first decision I made when I became the nominee for president in 2020. It was the best decision I made. Her story represents the best of America’s story. And as she made clear today, I have no doubt that she’ll continue writing that story.

She will continue the fight with purpose, determination, and joy. She will continue to be a champion for all Americans. Above all, she will continue to be a leader our children will look up to for generations to come as she puts her stamp on America’s future.

All of you Trump-voting retirees know the GOP is coming for your Social Security and Medicare, right?

This shit wild, cause they gave Trump credit for Obama’s economy then blamed Biden for Trump bad economy & ultimately won because of it

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

.@KamalaHarris set out to fight to defend our fundamental freedoms and build a country that works for everyone. She stood up for working families, decency, and opportunity.

Though this is not the outcome we wanted, our fight for freedom and opportunity endures. 

California will seek to work with the incoming president -- but let there be no mistake, we intend to stand with states across our nation to defend our Constitution and uphold the rule of law.

Federalism is the cornerstone of our democracy. It’s the United STATES of America.

Biden should resign so Harris becomes 47 and Donald has to throw out all his 47 swag

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

My heart is full today—full of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me, full of love for our country, and full of resolve.

Seniors voted to gut Social Security.

Men voted for their wives and daughters to die from miscarriages.

Immigrants voted for deportation raids.

Poor people voted for tax cuts for billionaires.

Women voted to have fewer rights than men.

Police voted for a convicted felon.

‘you live in a progressive area, you’ll be fine’ it’s not just about me, it was NEVER just about me. it should never just be about you.

Mr Biden,
I need you to stand up, straighten your back and make some things shake before your departure

The thing about leopards is eventually they will eat you too.

Your favorite local restaurant closing because the nice family who owns it getting deported. You thought they were some of the “good ones.” The price of produce skyrocketing even before the camps are built as immigrants flee. Your daughter dying of sepsis because the lawyers feel it’s too risky to perform that D&C.

No more FAFSA for your kids college because you didn’t know that was part of the Department of Education. Veterans having their benefits cut because they rolled back the PACT Act as too expensive. That factory in town that was going to build chips and employ your kids never breaking ground because of the repeal of the CHIPs act. The bridge that was going to cut your commute in half being canceled because of the repeal of the Infrastructure Act.

That sweet government job that you’ve loved because you can work 8 hours a day and fish on the weekends has been slated for a MAGA Schedule F slot because it controls funding for contracts that will go to Republican donors, so you’re fired without cause or any union protections.

You’ll blame Biden or the local Democrats probably. But it will be fine because Elon promised it would be uncomfortable at first but it will get better. You were just so sure it would be uncomfortable for…you know…”those people.” Not you.

But that’s leopards for you. They eat whatever is available.

Someone who can't get a job because they shoplifted one time watching a rapist pedophile with 34 felonies become president

people being like “queer people survived Reagan” like no actually they did not? famously?

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

The point of this article is not to wallow in misery, feel sorry for ourselves, or start finger-pointing. But we must face some hard truths about where we are as a movement fighting for democracy. https://t.co/41bzE4krP3

MAGA admits it

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect.  All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.

Perhaps I started my criminal investigations of Trump a bit too late. But I'm comfortable that my successor Aileen Cannon will keep them going.

Do not let all the doom posting get the best of you right now

Go to bed, wake up tomorrow, reach out to friends, fully immerse yourself in comforting things

Don't give them your despair, it's what they want

You have to keep going

[John Pavlovitz @johnpavlovitz]

We just consented to a rapist overseeing the bodies of our girls and women.

There is no way to spin this as anything but a collective act of violence.

[Jared Yates Sexton @JYSexton]

A foreign adversary called in multiple bomb threats in a battleground state in an effort to disenfranchise Black voters and help their favored candidate who is held on a leash by their dictatorial leader.

I mean. Weird that that’s barely even being discussed.
