Three lads who were brilliant all summer had the courage to step up & take a pen when the stakes were high. They deserve support & backing not the vile racist abuse they’ve had since last night. If you abuse anyone on social media you’re not an @England fan and we don’t want you.

.@Kasparov63 emailed me: “Putin and his gang don’t care about national interests, only their own. Go after their money. Track it down, freeze their accounts, seize their assets. Tell his lobbyists and enablers to go to hell.” wapo.st/2YeA73T

Amanda Gorman poem: "We've seen a force that would shatter our nation rather than share it. Would destroy our country if it meant delaying democracy. And this effort very nearly succeeded. But while democracy can be periodically delayed, it can never be permanently defeated."

FULL AMANDA GORMAN POEM: “We will raise this wounded world into a wondrous one ... There is always light, if only we’re brave enough to see it. If only we’re brave enough to be it.” The 22-year-old is the youngest inaugural poet in U.S. history: nbcnews.to/3isX8JY

"He sneaks out early tomorrow as the only president in living memory to face the legitimate prospect of post-presidential conviction," @Maddow says. “Unequivocally and inarguably the worst president in American history, with what may literally may be the rap sheet to prove it."

Here’s the difference, folks. When Colin Kaepernick speaks out against racial injustice, no team will sign him. When Josh Hawley gets dropped for helping incite an insurrection, he lands another book deal in less than 2 weeks. This is what white privilege looks like.

Lauren Boebert is an active threat. She must be expelled from Congress immediately.

Be wary of “unity” calls that are designed to excuse, obscure the conduct of people who must be held responsible. There can’t be real unity without accountability. We need instead a coalition of people committed to American Renewal-to rebuild what the past 4 years have damaged.

To see the Confederate flag marched through our Capitol by a seditious mob is to realize, once again, that the bloody injustices which sparked our Civil War have not been fully reckoned with by this nation. Not by a long shot.

Will Elaine Chao give back the tens of millions she made while a cabinet member of the most corrupt POTUS in history, or is it just the ‘profile in courage’ of quitting two weeks before her term ends? @SecElaineChao

At this late a stage, resignations help little beyond serving as late attempts at self-preservation. If Sec. Chao objects to yesterday’s events this deeply, she should be working the Cabinet to invoke the 25th amendment - not abdicating the seat that allows her to do so.
Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao is resigning, per two officials. Cites yesterday’s events as reason in email to DOT colleagues, per draft. First Cabinet secretary to resign. Chao is married to Mitch McConnell. More TK.
