A political party that is morally and intellectually bankrupt deserves the rebuke of the American people.
It is now time to make America good again.
That is an endeavor to which all Americans can contribute, for we are not Democrats, Republicans or Independents. We are humans, and the things that unite us far exceed the things that divide us.
We are the caretakers of the American experiment, and the experiment has been rejuvenated tonight.

One of my favorite lines from President Clinton’s endorsement of Scott Colom last week:
“Now, my friend George W. Bush once said, ‘Democracy is self-correcting.’ We’re about to find out in Mississippi if it’s true. We’re about to find out, because Scott is the correction.”

Yesterday was a great day for our democracy. If we want to hold on to what we’re feeling today, we need to get to work.

“Politics that tends to the wounds of peoples and of those who suffer injustice offers grounds for hope for the future of humanity,” the Pope highlighted.

Only in Arkansas could you bring together a former President of the United States and a Razorback champion who built one of the most recognizable organizations in professional sports. I enjoyed joining two proud Arkansans and Razorback fans President @BillClinton and @dallascowboys owner Jerry Jones at the Little Rock Touchdown Club today for a conversation about football, excellence, and the state that shaped them both. Their love for @UArkansas and the Razorbacks is unmistakable, and President Clinton’s memory for the smallest details of games played decades ago is truly impressive. It was a special day for Arkansas football fans.

The Catholic Church teaches that the death penalty is "inadmissible," primarily because every human being has God-given dignity, even a murderer, even a mass murderer. The televising of an execution is barbarism of the worst kind, offering up death as entertainment.
Some Catholics still reject Pope Francis's magisterial pronouncement on the death penalty, which is now included in the Catechism. But opposition to the death penalty, grounded in the respect for all human life, is not a brand new doctrine. Rather, it is one that took time to develop, as the church came to understand more deeply the innate dignity of every human life.
"The new evangelization calls for followers of Christ who are unconditionally pro-life: who will proclaim, celebrate and serve the Gospel of life in every situation. A sign of hope is the increasing recognition that the dignity of human life must never be taken away, even in the case of someone who has done great evil. . . . I renew the appeal I made . . . for a consensus to end the death penalty, which is both cruel and unnecessary."
—St. John Paul II, St. Louis, Missouri, January 27, 1999

"Sometimes slogans work because they are true, and in its way, the song helped catalyze policymaking that has had lasting impact."
Thirty-five years after @shawnlandres suggested Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop" as a campaign song to then-Governor Bill Clinton, he writes that the song still offers hope for tomorrow.

Once a Staffer: @shawnlandres | Known as the original volunteer, Shawn's campaign song suggestion, "Don't Stop" by Fleetwood Mac, catapulted a simple idea into the soundtrack of President Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign.

30 years ago today, I signed the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. In the three decades since, the world has seen only 10 nuclear tests, compared with more than 2,000 in the five decades before. As AI gives us new capabilities we could only have imagined then, we should remember something we learned in the nuclear age: even when countries disagree, we can still work together to reduce the risks we all face. cfr.org/articles/bill-clinto…

And as this noisy week winds down, here is a leader to truly give our attention to. Pope Leo is a man who devotes his life to raising others up, all people! He uses words to calm, to inspire, to remind us all we are lights in a dark world. Give your attention to this leader, and let it be a guide. Watch how he speaks, listen to his tone, see how others react to him.
Thank you, your holiness for welcoming @specialolympics athletes into your circle of life. Thank you so much for moving humanity forward, as well as showing love and compassion to these amazing athletes. I thank you for your example, for being a beacon of light when we all so clearly need it. May we all choose to include! specialolympics.org/about/pr…

Twenty-five years on, Tim Russert’s tribute to Father Mychal Judge on Meet the Press still moves me.
The FDNY chaplain died on 9/11 while ministering to others. Take a moment this Sunday to remember him.

Happy 80th birthday to my friend George W. Bush!
Your friendship—and that of your father and your entire family—has been one of the great gifts of my life. It has always reminded me that long before we’re politicians, we’re fellow Americans and, above all, human beings.
And for the next month, I’m especially grateful to finally have someone older than me! Wishing you many more years of good health, happiness, and friendship.
Our country is stronger when we remember that what unites us is greater than what divides us.
Proud of you Pedro! 🇺🇸♥️🎉
America has become the longest-lasting democracy in history in large part thanks to generations of immigrants who have brought their talents, hard work, and dreams to our country. I was honored to welcome Pedro, who will help us write the next chapter of our American story.

Today, Hillary and I were honored to be on the South Side of Chicago to celebrate the opening of the Obama Presidential Center. The Obama Center tells the story of eight years of progress, and is a stirring reminder of the power—and responsibility—we have as citizens shape a better future.
Congratulations, Barack and Michelle, on this extraordinary accomplishment!

Juneteenth is both a joyous celebration and a solemn reminder that the road to justice and equality is a long one that we must all walk together. Today, let’s renew our commitment to one another that we will stay vigilant, that we will not turn back, and that we will build a future we can all truly share.
