President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”
Michelle and I can’t wait for you to visit the Obama Presidential Center!
Starting on June 19, the Center will be open to the public, and you’ll be able to check out the Museum along with public spaces like a new branch of the Chicago Public Library with a reading room, a two-acre playground, a fruit and vegetable garden, and more.
Tickets available at tickets.obama.org.
This decision is outrageous.
MAGA is SCARED of YOU.
They know they LOSE when Black, Latino, and diverse voters are heard — so they shut them up and rig the maps.
We’re not backing down. November is coming.
Breaking news: The Supreme Court weakened a key provision of the landmark Voting Rights Act, a ruling that limits the consideration of race in drawing voting maps and could usher in Republican gains in the House. wapo.st/42BR4qd

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.
President Obama spoke about the late Rev. Jesse Jackson's impact on the Democratic party at his funeral: "He paved the road for so many others to follow."
Congratulations to the Boys Basketball team who defeated Barberton 71-50 to advance to Saturday's OHSAA District Championship vs. Euclid. The game will be played at Twinsburg HS with a 7pm tip. Tickets are available at ohsaa.org
Go Raiders!
JC: 6’2 sophomore guard Danny Young Jr. (@DanielYoung__) delivered a dominant double-double with 36 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists, shooting 4 for 11 from beyond the arc and 11 for 23 from the field in a 102–88 victory.
The assassination of Malcolm X shook this nation to its core. His killing was a reminder of the price paid for speaking truth to POWER. Today, we honor his legacy & recommit to the fight for justice, accountability, & protecting every voice that dares to challenge injustice.
Michelle and I were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of a true giant, the Reverend Jesse Jackson. We will always be grateful for Jesse's lifetime of service, and the friendship our families share. We stood on his shoulders. We send our deepest condolences to the Jackson family and everyone in Chicago and beyond who knew and loved him.
Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change — all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.
Congratulations to the Super Bowl champion @Seahawks! This defense was special. MVP Kenneth Walker was dominant. And Sam Darnold gave us one of the best comeback stories in a long time. Enjoy the celebration.
🚨 NEW: Trump disinvited Maryland Gov. Wes Moore from a bipartisan governors’ dinner.
Moore is the only Black governor in America — and the vice chair of the National Governors Association.
Everyone else was welcome.
He wasn’t.
Patterns don’t lie.
Let's throw it back to November 2008 when Barrack Obama became the 44th President of America.
There was joy all over the world.. not just America. The best President America ever produced.
Trump posted a disgustingly racist video depicting the Obamas as apes.
Are my Republican colleagues going to continue to bend the knee to a racist, authoritarian president who wants the American people to bow down before him?
