Independence Day is a reminder that America is not the project of any one person. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word ‘We.’ ‘We The People.’ ‘We Shall Overcome.’ ‘Yes We Can.’ America is owned by no one. It belongs to all citizens. And at this moment in history—when core democratic principles seem to be continuously under attack, when too many people around the world have become cynical and disengaged—now is precisely the time to ask ourselves tough questions about how we can build our democracies and make them work in meaningful and practical ways for ordinary people.
@maserattimami @withdrawnprawn Literally drove me insane!!! You’re interrupting everything he’s saying but when he tries to get a word in “you’re speaking”
@6Merican@gaborgurbacs I’ve lived in the Netherlands for nearly 2 years and every single time I visit home in California, I’m sick the whole trip. The food regulations in EU are much more strict than the US
I’m absolutely devastated for the people of America today.
Check on your friends.
Look after each other.
We’re all in this together, and the fight is just beginning.
A truly dark day for America.
