As Kamala says, being a leader is not about who you beat down. It’s about who you lift up.
Here she is lifting up our Baltimore staff tonight. Cheers to our leader.
I just can’t stop thinking about how tired she must have been - holding the country up on her shoulders for so long even when the odds felt so long. She earned her rest with John Lewis and the other giants we’ve lost. It’s our mandate to carry on.
TRUMP just wrapped his town hall and the new news we got was:
1) He most definitely did NOT follow the testing requirements for the 1st debate
2) He definitely DOES owe $421 million & paid $750 in fed income tax
3) He will NOT disparage the domestic terror threat, QAnon
If Hillary Clinton had a heart attack 4 years ago and said this, CNN would have run non stop panels featuring Sanjay Gupta, Dr. Oz and a magic wall that only showed various searches of WebMD.
Non sitcom news:
70x more people died in PR than govt says.
70x more people died in PR than govt says.

When disaster hits anywhere in America, our government has a basic responsibility to commit the resources necessary to save lives, accurately assess damage, and rebuild communities. For Puerto Rico, our government has failed at every level.
Trump 2016 voter asked on CNN about the President's performance:
"No I wasn't pleased with it at all....He was childish"
Asked about Biden calling TRUMP a clown: "when the shoe fits."
One of my favorite Pelosi quotes on ACA:
"You go through the gate. If the gate's closed, you go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we'll pole vault in. If that doesn't work, we'll parachute in. But we're going to get health care reform passed for the American people."
Trump screaming fake news at the press while lying about the hearing.
Mueller calmly answers questions as Republicans yell in his face.
And who has the "optics" problem?
Hillary mentioned Dorothy.
Elizabeth mentioned Aunt Bea.
Maya mentioned Shyamala.
God bless strong women and the strong women they raise and support.

Quick q — Is Obama a member of the “political establishment” on Twitter but *not* a member of the hated “establishment” when he’s in a Bernie ad? I’m just trying to keep up.
There is no one who works harder, is tougher or keeps their humor more than she does. I’m so proud of her, our staff and the race we ran. Would do it all again in a second.
For 12 yrs, Mom has put her heart & soul into running Planned Parenthood. On her last day, it’s impossible to express what this org has meant to her & our family.
We can’t wait to continue to support it as a few of the 11 million supporters across the country.

This is a really tough call for any candidate to make. It’s an admirable move by Pete and his team and one that’ll be remembered. He’s got a long future ahead of him.
1) It's not a leak. She sent it to her press list, from her office & posted it online.
2) She not only had the permission of the witness, it was a request of the witness
3) There is no rule against what she did - committee rule, law or otherwise.
Biden has been gracious and complimentary to every single candidate who has dropped out and endorsed him - not only the right thing to do but gives deserved respect to all the supporters of those candidates as well.
We live in a majority pro-choice country. We have a majority pro-choice Senate. This fight ain't over and it's for all the marbles.
Head up, shoulders back. Just like our grandmothers and mothers taught us.

Also...Ricky Gervais is a moron for saying don’t mention politics. Michelle Williams just put reproductive rights front and center on national TV which rarely happens in even televised political debates! So thank goodness she did.

@KamalaHarris
&

rallying against Kavanaugh before either one of them was a candidate.
More women candidates have made this primary better. It’s stopped being a novelty and thank God for that. Sad to see her go.
It's actually *not* inevitable. Know what could prevent it? Reporters could choose not to take the bait of bad faith critiques and actually learn a lesson from 2016.
Also remind me where Trump's tax returns are again?
Some news (which seems exceptionally small given the state of the world!) — excited to join the great team at
@UniteCountryPAC
.
It’s never been more important to take it to Trump every single day & fight for VP Biden to be our next President. Let’s go.
NEWS >> in the 24 hours after
@KamalaHarris
debate performance, we raised $2 MILLION in online contributions from more than 60k donors. More than half are new contributors. Best fundraising day of the campaign.
Question for tomorrow if the trend holds - will Bernie regret being the only one on the record saying whoever has the plurality of delegates should be the nominee?
MIAMI HERALD: “Despite earlier promises in Miami that he would not do business in Cuba until the island was ‘free,’ Donald Trump applied in 2008 to register his Trump trademark in Cuba”
Kamala was bussed to school to be the second class to integrate her public school.
This is not academic for her. This is personal to her and so many other people.
Also let’s dispense with the false narrative we heard that Black voters wait for White voters in IA to tell them who to vote for. If anything, there’s far more evidence of the opposite — many Democrats waited to see who the true base of the party (AA voters) would back.
