We can't allow ourselves to become numb to mass shootings. What happened today in Minneapolis is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I are praying for the parents who have lost a child or will be sitting at their hospital bedside after yet another act of unspeakable, unnecessary violence.

Here’s the footage of him from that day.

California’s farmworkers are the backbone of our economy.

They work through grueling conditions – rain and shine, heat and cold, even a pandemic – to feed the nation.

Targeting these workers is just wrong. And meant to stoke fear, not improve public safety.

4.6 million American children live in a home where a gun is kept loaded and unlocked.

The Trump admin is saying FEMA chief David Richardson was “joking” about not knowing there’s a hurricane season — he threatened to “run over” anyone who doesn’t do what he tells them👇🏽. Seem like a jokey guy to you? 🤷🏻‍♂️

You know what’s not funny? Failing to help tornado victims.
