Barack Obama hasn't been President in almost 10 years. MAGA racists cannot get past the fact that a Black man was President, won the Nobel Peace Prize, and will be remembered in history as one of the great leaders of the 21st Century.
RETWEET if you love President Obama! 💙
Officially Denver's warmest Christmas Eve on record.
High of 71° today...and we'll probably have our warmest Christmas on record tomorrow as well.
Woot.

An anecdote I cherish is Mandy Patinkin once asked Rob Reiner what The Princess Bride was about. Reiner said it’s about a grandfather telling his grandson that the most important thing in in the world is love. I think that’s beautiful.
Some of you never actually listened to your grandparents and it shows. Mine immigrated from Europe. They lived through WWII there and saw what these ideologies can do to a society - the strategic, systematic dismantling. History repeats when we don’t learn. Read a goddamn book.
🚨RFK JR SPREADS LIES:
BREAKING: RFK Jr. claims America “did the WORST” on COVID, blames the CDC for “forcing SCHOOL KIDS to wear masks,” and vows to fire officials.
REALITY CHECK: Masks in schools cut outbreaks by 3.5x. The science isn’t broken - HE IS.
ON THIS DAY: One hundred and five years ago, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, guaranteeing American women’s right to vote, was ratified. https://t.co/wgDa0pF2S8
Let’s set the facts straight about the war in Ukraine:
Russia started this war
Ukrainians are the victim in this conflict
Russia has kidnapped thousands of Ukrainian kids
Russia continuously bombs civilian infrastructure
This war will not end by President Trump coddling Putin.
URGENT BREAKING: Fired Epstein and Maxwell Prosecutor, Maurene Comey, just issued this following statement:
"Yesterday was unexpectedly my last day in the Office. I was summarily fired via memo from Main Justice that did not give a reason for my termination.
Every person lucky enough to work in this office constantly hears four words to describe our ethos: Without Fear or Favor. Do the right thing, the right way, for the right reasons without fear of retribution and without favor to the powerful.
For the majority of my nearly ten years in SDNY, the hard part seemed to be acting “without favor.” That is, making sure people with access, money, and power were not treated differently than anyone else; and making sure this office remained separate from politics and focused only on the facts and the law. Fear was never really conceivable. We don’t fear bad press; we have the luxury of exceptional security keeping us physically safe; and, so long as we did our work with integrity, we would get to keep serving the public in this office.
But we have entered a new phase where “without fear” may be the challenge. If a career prosecutor can be fired without reason, fear may seep into the decisions of those who remain. Do not let that happen. Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought. Instead of fear, let this moment fuel the fire that already burns at the heart of this place. A fire of righteous indignation at abuses of power. Of commitment to seek justice for victims. Of dedication to truth above all else.
It has been an honor to fight for those principles by your side.
Maurene"
Since Trump doesn't want this portrait of President Obama displayed in the White House, let's make this photo of our President go viral here!
RETWEET if you love @BarackObama!
Mark Carney just dropped the hammer on Trump.
“Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over.”
“We are a free, sovereign and ambitious country. We are masters in our own home.”
That’s what I’m talking about.

On this May Day, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.
BREAKING - Senator Warnock:
“This is the worst first 100 days that this country has seen in a very very long time. We are witnessing an all out assault on our Constitution… They are trying to convince us that our neighbors are our enemies.”
