Jules Witcover was one of the most consequential journalists of our time because he understood to his core the fundamental role journalists play in our democracy – and the great responsibility that comes with being one. Over the course of my career, I spent a lot of time with Jules who came from a middle class background a lot like mine. He also believed, like I do, that family is the beginning, middle, and end. That perspective gave him an innate sense of decency that he never lost sight of – no matter how big the scoop, or how controversial the topic. I saw it firsthand in the reporting Jules did on my own life. His work was always fair, honest, and smart. Jules was a straight shooter. And he listened. For him, journalism was more than just telling a story, it was about telling the hard truths. Jules' words – and his coverage of all the big moments in recent American history – will help future generations better understand what this country is all about. And his work will continue to inspire generations of young journalists. For six decades, Jules was a respected, reliable voice for readers across the country and a mentor to many. He was one of the greats. Jill and I send our love to his wife Marion, his children Amy, Julie, Paul, and Peter, his three grandchildren, and all of those who were fortunate enough to know him.

America is awake.

Retweet if you agree that the president should reveal his full medical records.

We have the power to create the future we want. A future where: - We end our gun violence epidemic - We lead the world in combating climate change - Everyone has access to the health care they need - Our government works for all — not just the wealthy and well-connected

Donald Trump just doesn't understand: We have an economic crisis because we have a public health crisis — and we have a public health crisis because he failed to act.

This is inexcusable.

Imagine what we could be doing now with the $2 trillion in tax cuts that Donald Trump delivered for his rich friends.

When I asked Rep. Ratcliffe during his confirmation hearing today if he thought Trump accurately told Americans how serious the coronavirus threat was, he said, "I believe so." Let's recap: Trump repeatedly said it was "under control." Now more than 69,000 people are dead.
