About Me
[edit]–Hope–
[edit]It is the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs.
The hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores.
The hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the Mekong Delta.
The hope of a mill worker's son who dares to defy the odds.
The hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him, too.
Hope! Hope in the face of difficulty! Hope in the face of uncertainty! The audacity of hope! In the end, that is God's greatest gift to us, the bedrock of this nation. A belief in things not seen. A belief that there are better days ahead.
- - Illinois Senator Barack Obama, 2004
Walk with the wind, brothers and sisters,
and let the spirit of peace and the power of everlasting love be your guide.
- - Congressman John Lewis, American Civil Rights Hero, 2020
–Keep the Faith–
[edit]"You can be the generation that, at a critical moment, STOOD UP and reminded us just how precious this experiment in democracy really is, and just how powerful it can be when we fight for it, when we believe in it. I believe you will. Because I believe in you. And I will be right there with you every step of the way."
- - President Barack Obama, 2018
–Reclaiming our Time–
[edit]"What he failed to tell you was when you're on my time, I can reclaim it. He left that out, so I'm reclaiming my time."
- - Congresswoman Maxine Waters to corrupt Treasury Secretary, 2017
"Fox News is a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists ― it's designed to turn us against each other, risking life & death consequences, to provide cover for the corruption that's rotting our government and hollowing out our middle class."
- - Senator Elizabeth Warren, 2019.
"While we would not sink to name-calling in the Trumpian manner — or ruefully point out that he failed to spell the congressman's name correctly (it's Cummings, not Cumming) — we would tell the most dishonest man to ever occupy the Oval Office, the mocker of war heroes, the gleeful grabber of women's private parts, the serial bankrupter of businesses, the useful idiot of Vladimir Putin and the guy who insisted there are "good people" among murderous neo-Nazis that he's still not fooling most Americans into believing he's even slightly competent in his current post. Or that he possesses a scintilla of integrity. Better to have some vermin living in your neighborhood than to be one."
- - The Baltimore Sun in response to White House Tweeter Donald Trump, 2019
"I'm calling on the GOP to stop Trump's filthy talk of whistleblowers being spies & using mob language implying they should be killed. Impeachment is not good enough for Trump. He needs to be imprisoned & placed in solitary confinement."
- - Congresswoman Maxine Waters, 2019
"Any other individual who would have been caught conducting themselves the way this president has would be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. It is shameful that any members of this House are willing to disregard the Constitution, turn a blind eye to hard facts, and ignore a confession from the president himself. History will remember those who were willing to speak truth to power. This is our country! Our foremothers and forefathers shed their blood to build and defend this democracy! I refuse to have it undermined. I'm proud that in the final analysis, justice will have been served in America, and Donald Trump will have been impeached!"
- - Congresswoman Maxine Waters' address at the Impeachment of Donald Trump, December 18, 2019
"It's appalling the things that Donald Trump says, and then you say to me, tearing up his falsehoods, isn't that the wrong message? No it isn't. He has shredded the truth in his speech. He's shredding the Constitution in his conduct. I shredded his "State of his Mind" Address."
- - Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, during press conference after ripping up copy of Trump's 2020 State of the Union Speech, February 5, 2020
"Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people — does not even pretend to try. Instead he tries to divide us. We are witnessing the consequences of three years of this deliberate effort. We are witnessing the consequences of three years without mature leadership."
- - General James Mattis, 50-Year Marines Veteran, after Trump and AG William Barr order military assault on peaceful protesters, June 3, 2020
–The Future–
[edit]"This country was built by people who had each other's backs. And the future depends on you and us summoning that same spirit. Even after everything that's happened and all the challenges we face, I have great faith in this country, and in our and your future. Lean on each other. Hold on to your values, and never, ever give up."
- - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, 2019 commencement speech
