Those people who you pass by today? They're also simply trying to survive a challenging world. You each have valid struggles, however different they may be. Please give each other some grace. You deserve it.
Regardless of political affiliation, those interested in how American institutions have historically approached questions of executive accountability may find this perspective from a highly respected historian both informative and thought-provoking: https://t.co/C51lmKyvs2
A lighthouse is not a harbour. These election results may help America avoid the rocks immediately ahead, but they do not mean the storm has passed. The deeper currents shaping the country's politics remain very much at work. More here:

@RepJackKimble Satire loses its edge when its targets are incapable of distinguishing ridicule from reinforcement. They read the headline and find proof where none exists.
Many "average" parents scrimp, save, & sacrifice to be able to send their children to great independent schools where extraordinary teaching, enviable cocurricular activities, & abundant resources are but part of the value package.

How much longer will we accept subscription-model purchasing: of music, ebooks, video, software, devices (home security, communications, automation, et al), and so much more?

@m1db The House must impeach President, VP, & all implicated Cabinet officers. Senate must convict each by a 2/3 vote.
Vacancies filled through the normal succession and appointment processes.
Or, use the next two years to pass aggressively forward-thinking legislation.

Lest we think too much of ourselves:
a) the results are, in part, due to a number of former Trump voters waking up to reality & making the right choices, at last. Let’s not gloat.
b) the Right has not gone quiet because they are respecting the results with dignity & good grace…
Before @UniofOxford (1096) came @Unibo (1088). Before both came @AlAzharUniv (970) & Al-Qarawiyyin (859, female founded). The Islamic world has a long tradition of learning & scholarship. Reducing an entire culture to the views of extremists is unfair & historically illiterate.
@HouseDemocrats Please do. You have the chance to restore faith in the American Republic, or lose it forever. The old promise is gone. Can you build something more honest, more welcoming, and more worthy of trust in its place?
