No more happy talk about the "uniquely American transition of power." Trump presidency and this post-election period confirm that the US is *less* committed to democratic norms - and has *weaker* institutional safeguards for democracy - than peer wealthy democracies.
It's morning again in America. The task: recovering from Covid, reestablishing our economy, regaining the world's respect, restoring the integrity of our institutions, and most of all reuniting these divided states and repairing the content of this country's character. #JoeBiden

6/6 Think if this “suspect” were a white celebrity that they would have come in shooting things up because that person was surprised and shot at them? They would have been more careful. We have to prioritize *all* human lives over investigations. Black lives indeed matter.

Really moving to see the sailors on the USS Roosevelt cheering their captain, Brett Crozier, as a hero when he leaves the carrier after the Navy dismisses him for trying to save their lives. That's worth more than any medal or promotion.
Wrongfully relieved of command but did right by the sailors. #navy @UncleChaps @katebarstool @ZeroBlog30 @CaptainCons
