Hate crimes against Asian Americans have historically been under-reported and under-counted and have been rising at alarming rates over the last year. It's heartening to now have a President that names it and denounces it. #StopAsianHate

I’m deeply disturbed by the rise in hate crimes against Asian Americans—including in Orange County—during the pandemic. It’s imperative we all denounce racism, combat disinformation, and pursue justice in solidarity with the Asian American and Pacific Islander community.

A Week of Thanksgiving #1: the DNC women whose fierce strength & support have meant everything these past few months: @nellwyn @SeemaNanda @muthoniwambu @pamcard0na @cjtarsney @embdillon @MegDiMartino @hkreid @alisonhgoh @pdtaylorHU @XochitlHinojosa @reyna_simone @kate_dilello

In 2016, when Trump won MI, PA and WI by 77, 000 votes, it was part of his "landslide" victory.
In 2020, when Biden won MI, PA and WI by 255,000 votes, and won the popular vote by 6 million, it was "voter fraud."
We will not allow Trump to destroy American democracy.

Remember this come January: Republicans were never serious about debt. What they were serious about was giving their rich friends and donors giveaways instead of making sure we have decent schools, decent transit systems, and decent housing for the people who need it.
✅ plus @muthoniwambu - unflappable.
The campaign @JoeBiden ran was masterful but don’t sleep on the massive role @DNC played since well before we even had a nominee. @TomPerez , Mary Beth Cahill, @samcornale @XochitlHinojosa @Adrienne_DNC @stevensonpj @hkreid @nellwyn and scores of others./1
SO proud of my former colleagues who always understood what it would take to rebuild our party, working in the hardest and most unappreciated jobs in politics. @TomPerez @nellwyn @Tweetsteban @KatAtwater @stevensonpj @_clarkekent @MegDiMartino @samcornale @kate_dilello @RachuDM
Congratulations @JoeBiden.
It is time to begin the work of uniting our country to heal our nation’s wounds, restoring our economy, and building back better to an America that works for everyone.

It’s too late to use the mails. Given Supreme Court rulings I urge everyone to now vote in person; early vote or use drop boxes. Protect your health but don’t let the Court and the deliberately crippled Postal Service deprive you of your most precious civil right. Plan your vote.

Mitch McConnell should win an Olympic gold in both gaslighting and false equivalence. Never forget: McConnell's goal is to break the government. He's decimated norms and practices to make the system work for him and his powerful friends. No amount of bloviating changes that fact.
Seema Nanda retweeted
This nomination is a sham. Trump, McConnell and the GOP Senators who rubberstamp this theft of the Court are literally wanting the Court to exert minority rule over Americans. We must beat them at the ballot box so badly that they cannot recover from this a decades to come.

Can’t wait to vote for a candidate and party who can pronounce beautiful & diverse names and who can stand publicly against bigotry towards #AAPIs. @JoeBiden @KamalaHarris @ASPIRE_PAC @TheDemocrats @hunterw news.yahoo.com/mynameis-kama…
#MyNameIs Seema, which means "limit." It's ok (but hard) to mispronounce my name, but mocking an Indian name in 2020 is just as wrong as it was in 2006 (remember when George Allen called a Sen. Webb staffer macaca and welcomed him to America?). Vote. Them. Out. #IWillVote.com

Last 24 hours:
Intel agencies warned Trump that Giuliani was meeting with Russian agents. Trump ignored the warnings
Trump won't disavow a conspiracy about a satanic pedophile cult in the govt
Trump retweets satire as if it's real news
He still controls our nuclear weapons

A reminder- Ivanka and Jared use private emails for public business and this was barely a one day story in the media.
