It’s not a protest when they storm an airport looking for Jews. It’s a pogrom. Same goes on the Cornell campus when there are death threats against Jewish students. We need to call out anti-semitism, not tiptoe around it.

There is no doubt that California—and this country—is defined by the indigenous communities who've called them home well before us. They have contributed so much, and their rich histories deserve to be celebrated—today and every day. #IndigenousPeoplesDay

CA is reminding us who we really are. Earthquakes, fires, and mudslides. Hilary is just a one night stand

Grew up in tract homes, had a paper route, was a dishwasher at 15, bussed tables to help pay for State College, slept on couches as a road comic, don't believe in God AND I am perfectly fine with people getting student loan forgiveness. What'd I do wrong? #SupremeCourtDecision

🔷 JOHN STEINBECK Born on this day, in 1902 “So much there is to see, but our morning eyes describe a different world than do our afternoon eyes, and surely our wearied evening eyes can report only a weary evening world." ~ from “Travels with Charley" thanks to @InlibroV

I didn't want to kiss you goodbye — that was the trouble — I wanted to kiss you good night — and there's a lot of difference.

We would be together and have our books and at night be warm in bed together with the windows open and the stars bright.

Last night, Jill and I were honored to mark a new tradition: the lighting of the first ever permanent White House menorah – the first Jewish artifact in the entire White House collection.

I consider December 14th, 2012 the single darkest day of my presidency. The news from Sandy Hook Elementary was devastating, a visceral blow, and like so many others, I felt not just sorrow but anger at a world that could allow such things to happen.

Being an adult as an adult that never emotionally dealt with adolescence in a healthy way means you are 48 & sometimes can't sleep at night because you know you could buy and own the GI Joe aircraft carrier by the end of the week, but know there's not a single good reason.
