As the Bible says, “weep, ye may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” We will get through this together. Together.<p>Look, folks, all my colleagues that I served with in the house and the senate up here, we all understand, the world is watching, watching all of us today.

The MAGA Republicans believe that for them to succeed, everyone else has to fail. They believe America — not like I believe about America. I believe America is big enough for all of us to succeed, and that is the nation we’re building: a nation where no one is left behind.

The soul is what makes us “us.” The soul of America is defined by the sacred proposition that all are created equal in the image of God. That all are entitled to be treated with decency, dignity, and respect. That all deserve justice and a shot at lives of prosperity and consequence. And that democracy — democracy must be defended, for democracy makes all these things possible. Folks, and it’s up to us.
