If you’re upset about a Chinese spy balloon 60,000 feet in the air, wait until I tell you about the time a sitting U.S. president and a whole bunch of Republicans tried to overturn an election and overthrow our government with a deadly insurrection right here on the ground.

🚨NEWS: We have a deal. Today a bipartisan group of 20 Senators (10 D and 10 R) is announcing a breakthrough agreement on gun violence - the first in 30 years - that will save lives.
I think you’ll be surprised at the scope of our framework.

Bravo to Matthew McConaughey for speaking with such humanity and grace and fervent urgency on gun violence and reform. He's making Texas proud right now.

My obit for a truly remarkable man - Li Zhensheng, who took great personal risk to document China's Cultural Revolution. I was devastated to hear of his passing this week. nytimes.com/2020/06/25/world…

Funny how one bad protester labels the whole movement, but a few bad cops are never supposed to represent all cops. 🤔 – at Washington, DC

Let him stand in front of a house of worship and hold up a Bible. He has no power over a house of God or this holy book. He only shows himself to be a liar and makes himself look like a fool.

When civility leads to death, revolting is the only logical reaction.
The cries for peace will rain down, and when they do, they will land on deaf ears, because your violence has brought this resistance.
We have the right to fight back!
