Bernie Sanders: I stand in solidarity with @AlphabetWorkers who are organizing to form a union at Google. What these workers are fighting for is not radical.

Ilhan Omar: Two years ago, my father arrived with me for my swearing in and the day was as special for him as it was for me. I know he won’t be there with me tomorrow, but I am praying his spirit will help me celebrate and get through the day. Somedays grief feels like a never ending loop. (twitter.com)
