Statement from President Clinton and Secretary Clinton

Joe Biden has been one of America’s most consequential presidents, as well as a dear friend and partner to me. Today, we’ve also been reminded – again – that he’s a patriot of the highest order. Here’s my full statement:

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best

Having led us out of the worst public health and economic crises in most of our lives, President Biden should be remembered as one of our great leaders. Now he's passed the torch to Kamala Harris. We must unite behind her to defeat Trump. Our freedom and democracy depend on it.

“String” 1985 by Rosie Lee Tompkins. She was a consummate artist. Quilting became a major art form for African American women. One of the many ways we resisted being erased or relegated to “our place”.

Extremist so-called leaders ban books and deny facts — even suggesting the Civil War was not about slavery. We must teach our full history. Moving toward progress requires that we speak truth.

@younginnyhonii1 @jovvssssss I’m really still tryna find my genre but I read a lot of urban drama/romance books. Such as “Upstate” by Kalisha Buckhanon, Drama Queen by La Jill Hunt, Drama Queen Saga & No more Drama by La Jill Hunt.
