On this Sunday, an important message to all of our leaders! This is simple...the goodness of the earth has been good to America. We have a lot of food...Let’s make sure the hungry will not be hungry anymore. We can do this if we do it together! Not long lines...Long tables!!

I'm incredibly grateful for everyone who has chipped in to help fuel this campaign — especially in times as tough as these. @EWarren and I called a few folks to thank them for their support:

We're facing a potential national education crisis, with millions of kids, disproportionately the less-wealthy, derailed from basic education benchmarks. Having worked in countries where crisis disrupted education, I think we're underestimating broad impact this can have /1
Would be nice if we had a real Sec of Education instead of one whose legacy is protecting rights of for-profit colleges to defraud lower-income Americans, saying sexual assault on campus shouldn't count, & weakening standards of knowledge taught in school for political reasons /2— Molly McKew (@MollyMcKew) May 17, 2020
Pres Trump lashed out at Pres Obama just now at the WH saying, “Look, he was an incompetent president, that's all I can say. Grossly incompetent.” Trump still hasn’t articulated what crime he believes Obama committed. Obama says he believes Trump has bungled the virus response.

President Trump and his team are launching an unprecedented smear campaign against rivals, leveling wild and false allegations against critics in the media and politics, ranging from bizarre conspiracy theories to spreading lies about pedophilia and even murder. 1/
2/ These smear campaigns are unmoored from reality. They're deranged and indecent and seem designed at least in part to distract us from the horrific death, health, and economic crisis caused by the pandemic.
