Just an awesome person. Knowledge is power. Speak your truth.

Barack Obama at his last press briefing with reporters, 2017:

"I have enjoyed working with all of you. That does not, of course, mean that I've enjoyed every story that you have filed, but that's the point of this relationship. You're not supposed to be sycophants. You're supposed to be skeptics. You're supposed to ask me tough questions. You're not supposed to be complimentary, but you're supposed to cast a critical eye on folks who hold enormous power."

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.

The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.

We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.

Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.

Warnock: I don’t know how you hold hands with your fellow legislators and say a long prayer and then vote to cut a trillion dollars out of Medicaid.

There ought to be a connection between what you say on Sunday and what you do on Monday.

Guess who we spotted on campus today?

The Pentagon is the only place in America where you can fail 8 audits in a row, admit you’ll fail the next few & still get handed more money than you asked for.

But let a family need help buying groceries and suddenly it’s a lecture about hard work, responsibility & bootstraps.

When this nation can create billion dollar funds for political allies and supporters, but still will not address reparations for the descendants of slaves, that is not incapacity. That is choice.

America is capable of repair. It has yet to choose justice.

Today, I am remembering Mother Viola Fletcher on her first heavenly birthday.

As the oldest living survivor of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, she carried truth, memory, and moral witness across generations. She passed away in November at 111, and today she would have been 112.

I remain grateful for the opportunity to have shared space with her. May we continue to honor her life by telling the truth, preserving the history, and refusing to forget.

Trump fell asleep with his face drooping in the Oval Office during a meeting today. This is a real video that should concern every American. He’s not fit to serve.

Welcome back to Canada, President @BarackObama.

Thank you for joining us in Toronto for important conversations on how we can build a better and more just future — and empower more people to build with us.

[G O L D I E. @goldietaylor]

Extraordinary grace.

[Hakeem Jeffries @hakeemjeffries]

This guy is a complete fraud.

Don’t ever believe a word he has to say about election integrity.

[ABC News @ABC]

Public records show that President Trump voted by mail in the special election occurring Tuesday for the statehouse district that includes his Mar-a-Lago estate — in spite of his longstanding rhetoric against voting by mail.

BREAKING: 49 Senate Republicans just VOTED DOWN our simple bill to pay TSA workers.

Republicans have now blocked TSA pay SEVEN times. It’s a slap in the face to the men and women who have been working without a paycheck for weeks.

[Michael Steele @MichaelSteele]

.@realDonaldTrump you are a vile disgusting man. Petty and pathetic, you are a hypocrite who reeks of weakness and insecurities with no moral core. Regardless of the politics, the American people should be embarrassed and ashamed for ever having entrusted you with leadership.

God rest Robert Mueller.

Today we remember Breonna Taylor and the injustice of her death.

Her life was taken in a tragic and unjust act that continues to call our nation to confront the systems and policies that allow such harm to occur. Honoring her memory requires more than remembrance. It requires a continued commitment to justice, accountability, and the work of creating the Beloved Community.
