Happy birthday to one of my heroes — someone who believed our right to vote was more important than his own life. Thanks for making good trouble for 80 years, @repjohnlewis.

Congratulations to @MichelleObama for her Grammy nomination for the audiobook of "Becoming"! A beautiful story, well-told (and well-spoken!) 🏆

The impeachment process is not about undoing the results of 2016. It’s about protecting the integrity of 2020.

LMAO! @ewarren explains PERFECTLY how to respond to someone (probably a guy) who opposes marriage equality. #EqualityTownHall

Let us hear the cry of the earth, wounded in a thousand ways by human greed. Let us allow her to remain a welcoming home, in which no one feels excluded. #WorldWildlifeDay

Our life spreads light when it is given in service. The secret of joy is living to serve.

We risk our humanity when we avert our eyes from the horror happening in Yemen. We must contend with the pictures of starving, maimed and dead children. This is not to suggest it is a crisis with an easy answer. But willful ignorance and thus tacit complicity is unacceptable.

No jump shots. No ferns. No memes. Not this time. I’m going to give it to you straight: If you need health insurance for 2019, the deadline to get covered is December 15. Go to HealthCare.gov today and pass this on — you just might save a life.

Patriotism is the exact opposite of nationalism. Nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism. By putting our own interests first, with no regard for others, we erase the very thing that a nation holds dearest, and the thing that keeps it alive: its moral values. – at Paris, France

Without the right to education there is no real freedom, which allows every person to be the protagonist of their own destiny!

President Trump didn't make even the most cursory public show of respect for John McCain, against whom he had continued a personal grievance even as it was apparent that the the senator was losing his battle with brain cancer nyti.ms/2P9wJ3X

Our lunches together were a highlight of every week at the White House. Last week's trip to @DogTagBakery was no different. Happy birthday to my brother, my friend, @BarackObama.

Trump supporters can boo and say forever that they hate CNN and @acosta but after the cameras are off, all I see is them asking his opinion on everything under the sun and if they can take pictures with him. It's quite a phenomenon. And he handles it like a pro.

Steve Jobs’ father was a Syrian refugee. It would seem that nationality has nothing to do with the ability to succeed. If you think that being an Nigerian means you can’t succeed then you won’t. If you fight and you do succeed you will be a role model! – at Lagos, Nigeria

On this Father’s Day I’m thinking of the thousands of children separated from their parents at the border. These children should not be a negotiating tool. And reuniting them with their families would reaffirm America’s belief in & support for all parents who love their children.

Trump claims, preposterously, that parents of Korean War veterans came up to him during the 2016 campaign and said, "when you can, we'd love our son to be brought back home -- you know, the remains."
The Korean War ended in 1953.
