Breyer/Sotomayor/Kagan: "With sorrow—for this Court, but more, for the many millions of American women who have today lost a fundamental constitutional protection—we dissent." From Roe ... to Sorrow. It truly is sad.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

We'll demonstrate the multipronged effort to overturn a presidential election, how one strategy to subvert the election led to another, culminating in a violent attack on our democracy.

It’s an important story, and one that must be told to ensure it never happens again.

Robert Kennedy declared victory in California Democratic primary near midnight tonight 1968, Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles—“I think we can end the divisions within the United States….We are a great country, an unselfish country and a compassionate country.”

Speaking at “SRO for RFK” days before his death, Robert Kennedy quoted Camus in words fitting for America in June 2022:
“Perhaps this world is a world in which children suffer. But we can lessen the number of suffering children. And if you do not do this, then who will do this?"

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

We are the majority.

We are in the right.

And we will win.

“How much more carnage are we willing to accept? How many more innocent American lives must be taken before we say: Enough.”

Someplace between apathy and anarchy is the stance of the thinking human being; he does embrace a cause; he does take a position, and can't allow it to become business as usual. Humanity is our business.

A sickness known as hate. Not a virus, not a microbe, not a germ—but a sickness nonetheless, highly contagious, deadly in its effects. Don't look for it in the Twilight Zone—look for it in a mirror. Look for it before the light goes out altogether.

[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

Here’s your reminder that 34 Senate seats are up for re-election in November, and 20 of those are Republicans. There is a chance to send several GOP Senators packing, or to pick up empty seats and make Manchin and Sinema irrelevant.

[Kerry Kennedy @KerryKennedyRFK]

On this day in 1968, my father announced his campaign for the presidency of the United States. His vision was for America “to stand for hope instead of despair, for reconciliation of men instead of the growing risk of world war.” Like his legacy, his words endure.

"Violence does not spring from a vacuum. It's born out of other men's violence. It gets nurtured and it grows in a soil of prejudice and of hate and of bigotry."
